Great first boat! That 351 will last forever, just check the impeller in the water pump every spring to make sure it doesn't disintegrate. Also, please run the blower at least a minute before starting every time so you don't blow the dog house off due to fumes low in the bilge. Hopefully I can catch you guys on Holloway at some point this summer!
That boat is made SPECIFICALLY for water skiing! If you look underneath on the keel, you'll see 3 fins that are protruding from the hull right below the engine. These are for keeping the boat on a straight line while towing a slalom skier through a slalom course. It's also why the engine is placed in the middle of the boat instead of the rear. The boat is completely set up for a " hole shot," i.e., being able to pull a slalom skier out of the water from a dead stop to 36 mph in 200 feet! The boat will also only have a top speed of around 43 mph, because its all about that hole shot. ENJOY!!! THESE ARE GREAT BOATS!!! You'll also note that there's 2 speedometers instead of one so that the driver can better fine tune his speed.
So happy you took that tower off makes it looks so much better!
We couldn't agree more! The tower looked awful on it
Hell yeah! The perfect boat for cruising this summer 🌊

I always say wiring isn’t a big deal than I eat my words when I’m 6 hours into a wiring project lol

Hell yeah man! Find us out there some time! I checked the impeller before we went out! Trying to learn really fast about this thing, so far I love it.
Nice! It sounds awesome
Thanks! It sounds so good going across the water!
Make sure you take care of and treat the teak. I can’t believe how many people let there ski platforms dry up and get ruined.
The teak cleaned up real nice from when we got it. It looks real good now all oiled up
Do you know off hand what length cable you ordered with the kit?
Cool boat! Just bought one myself. Is yours strait piped

Motor boatin ;)
That boat sounds better than most V8 cars.
Haha thanks! She runs real good 😎
Did you sell the tower? I have the same exact boat
Yeah, I didn't like the look of it. And it had spider cracked the bow around the mounts.
you guys should bring that to me and i'll buff it out
Hell yes! Let's set it up!
It’s a ski boat they have those towers. For wakeboarding and skiing
You don’t need a tower on a ski boat. I agree with the owner, low profile ski boat, and it has an ugly tower. Get rid of it.
Hell yeahhh🤙🤙
