  1. I understand your frustration. I had the same experience on my ski before the one I have now. Honestly I just tried a couple different ones and ended up buying a different ski which was a game changer. IMO demo a couple different ones and get rid of the one you have. The ski should make you life easier not harder, and most of the new skis are pretty forgiving.
  2. For me I only believe in financing a boat for 5-6 years. That is not possible on a $100K boat ever. Good example is I sold my old boat after owning it for 9 years for $500 less than I bought it for. I would love a new boat, but my 2009 Response is nice, didn’t cost $100K, and does everything the new boats do. Honestly the new Nautique 200 and the CP were the best ideas so far. Less cost nice ski tug. As for the $200K wakeboats....that is just stupid!
  3. I sometimes ski with someone else and their boat, but I like skiing behind mine and have my wife drive me. She knows how I like to be pulled. If there is two boats in the water already that’s usually when I ski behind another boat.
  4. I have never been on a 2017, but the 2018 once you get the offside dialed it is effortless. I now have the 2019 and it is phenomenal to ski on. Offside is better, the new layup makes it finish the turn even better and earlier than the 2018 and is super fast. I am a very inconsistent skier, and the 2019 makes it very easy to have consistent passes and set PB’s. Go for the 2019.
  5. We go thru Farmers like all of our vehicles. They are great. Originally went with ski safe on the last boat and had an incident with our boat. They were a pain to deal with.
  6. It’s not rocket science. Either by a truck or buy an SUV that has some beef to it and you will be fine. I have a Mega cab Cummins and it pulls the shit like it isn’t even back there. Don’t buy a pu**y tow vehicle period and you have to worry about safety. Forget about how much it weighs. Safety is more important.
