I have the 100 , probably would've of bought the 140 out of preference, but found the 100 at an awesome deal off season on amazon. Think it was under $50 for mirror and mount.

Wow! This all sounds just like me! @Orlando76 , best idea yet!

@MuskokaKy if you're in Alabama, you can do more than look at it, you can ski it! I'm excited, I've yet to hear a complaint from someone with a 6.2. Everything about them has been praised!

@MuskokaKy and @markchilcutt are the winners! The boat you posted is coming to Alabama of nothing falls through! Thanks to everyone who shared!!!!! Knew we could find a deal!

@UWSkier I do like it a lot! Very comfortable, a lot thinner than my old uscg, and I barely notice the flotation loss. Only complaint, not for dolphin but any comp vest, would be rib protection. I'm a terrible skier and have taken a lot of nasty spills, but I took a season ending rib shot that I can't help but wonder if my old thicker USCG vest would have protected me? It was probably bad enough I would've been hurt either way, but I can't help but wonder....

I had great service from a Mallory from discount inboard marine! Only other input I have is, are you for sure it's distributor related? Symptoms could also be fuel and or compression related. Just a thought, you may have already ruled those out.

@bojans what's the hours and price?

That's also on the 2014 with 5.7. I think everything got better when moved back to the 1.26:1 transmission.

@markchilcutt I think that's the boat @MuskokaKy mentioned, right? Either way, it is a nice boat! Y'all keep em coming! It's winter time shopping, love having a bunch to choose from ;) @swc5150 I think the main issue in 2014 was transmission gear ratio. From my understanding that transmission is still being used behind the 6.2, but was very sluggish out of the hole behind the 5.7. 2015 they went back to the 1.26:1 transmission for the 5.7 that had been used in previous years and all issues fixed. Again, that's just my understanding of the issues. Either way, from my perspective, a 2014 prostar is still a major upgrade over most boats;)

Only thing I have to offer is the 71" may be too big... It may work well for you at 30-32 mph, but once you get to 34-36, I think a 69" will be plenty as the senate is a little wider than most skis. On a second note, the only senate recommended for 36mph is the lithium build. I can't speak from experience, but I think my graphite version would handle 36 just fine although 34 is as fast as I've ridden it. For what it's worth on the sizing, I'm 205 lbs and the 67" holds me up great as slow as 30mph. I've ridden it a lot at 32 and started making passes at 34 before the cold set in.

@Chris Eller how long is the lake? Also, did you have to change props or any other modifications to accommodate for a short lake? His lake is 1,800' with no turn around, so it's a drop on each end with a straight pull to the course. Thing is that some folks like yourself say the 5.7 is plenty as it's quicker than the prostar 197 with same engine. Others say it won't be enough. Everyone says the 6.2 will do the job, provide a better pull, lighter, and possibly more fuel efficient..... This is the reasoning behind the search for a 6.2.

@Dacon62 wow that is a nice boat with nice colors, but dang on the price! I think it would have to be low to mid 60's this time of year for him to jump on that. Probably have to add another 2k or so for shipping. @LeonL skiers marine is right down the road from area 41. They carry mc now. Could that have been where it's from? I really don't know much about promo dealings, but I guess it could be from skiers?

@LeonL Rambo is now in the Malibu business. My buddy doors have a hookup with a promo guy in Mississippi he got his last boat from. That is something that's in the works now. Possibly a boat built for him and used throughout summer of 2017 and possibly being able to get it as early as august... Not a %100 on this yet though, but I think he'll have to make a decision soon so the boat can be ordered and built for spring.

@Bruce55 yes, I've inquired about that one. Think the yellow is just a little too much though.

@LLUSA price as low as possible! All kidding aside, it's my ski partner that will be doing the buying. I sold his 2011 for him, so now I've been nominated to find the replacement;) @bennettsboatandski I'll forward your email to him, hopefully you do have something that'll work! @Razorskier1 you're a turd! Being that bad boy out and let us try it!!!! The darn things are like a needle in a haystack!
