Baller jcwaterskiparadise Posted May 13 Baller Share Posted May 13 Right on, Jody! Waterski is going nowhere with those pricy gadgets we don't need... Let's go back to basic, with zero off, it's only waterskiing after all. Strong engine is only for good jumpers, a very little number, and too much electronic inside only increase the risk of failure. You don't need to be only a mechanical guy but also an engineer. My dream boat still remains the mastercraft from 2008 to 2013 for the flat table without turbulences, before they destroyed the tricks wake. I still have my 2008 with 4400 hours and it still runs strong! When i need it i would change the motor... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Taperflex Posted May 13 Baller Share Posted May 13 A few years ago, Jody found us a "98 196 with a locked up engine. He put a 5.7 in it, single puck ZO and we had new skins installed. We've got About $16k in it. When people ask us about it I just say it's a Jody Seal special. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller UWSkier Posted May 13 Baller Share Posted May 13 Crazy it can still turn that many RPMs and not send a rod through the block. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
