You're it .....(picture tag, saltare inv. and I are play'in....)

It's on now, there's no turning back.......I'll get pic's for ya......Once I'm in the air it's just like snowboarding, I'm gonna start moving those tricks to water????

So it looks like my boat is going to see another weekend of sitting unused in the driveway, because UPS can't find the alternator that I ordered. If you're up for it, maybe it'd be a good weekend to check out that boat of yours?

Hey I'm new here I just got a 92 mariah for 4500 bucks and it runs great but it leaks tranny fluid from a gasket on the transmission . Anyone know if it's pretty hard to do a gasket kit yourself or if it's just worth takeing it somewhere ?

I see that you've had your rudder apart at one time, So maybe you're the guy to ask...I took mine apart yesterday because it had a LOT of play and leaked a little. Inside, there's one o-ring at the bottom, Two rubber seals at the top, and a clamp ring. But there's way more room than for just the two rubber seals and a clamp ring at the top...What is supposed to be in there that I'm missing?

Also, This is Sean, The guy who bought the Black Pearl from Simon and Wes. I live right off of Mississippi and Able St. in Fridley. You should come check the boat out some time.

MIkey, I picked up an older Hyperlite Motives 140 with Spin bindings last week for a Benjamin, hope it's a decent ride......

I've seen pics of your ballast system on a few sites... Do you have a write up somewhere? I bought a 1990 SunSport last August and have been running with a sac in the ski locker and big one on top of the rear seat totalling ~1000lbs, plus 3-4 adults up front. The wake is great but I would love to hide and plumb the sacks better. How much weight do you get under the rear seat? Did you cut out the vertical supports under the seat? Any support problems when passengers sit in the seats without the sack filled? My wife skiis so we are constantly draining and filling the sacks... that's the main reason I want this to be more automated. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated!

Hey ok if you want to bend the rudder back you'll have to remove it from the boat. It's not really designed to take any kind of force like that. If you remove it though I think you can bend it back. I would search WakeWorld some more for 'bent rudder'. Do not try to bend it while it's in the boat!!

For regular pics in a thread you can just post the link with [ img ] [ / img ] around the link without the spaces. Most people host them elsewhere so they can be bigger and higher quality. For your profile or avatar you need to open a program where you can resize the image to a certain width of pixels. I think you could use google to find an image resizer web tool or else try download.com or just email me hehe. If you just crop it, the program doesn't really reformat the image just changes the apperance. Confusing I agree.

I like the brown scheme it's slick. Can't wait to check it out!

i got the same rainbow stripes on my boat too man.. mine is brown.. i even got a rainbow interior to match it.. lol its quiet the site..

how come my pics are to large ? it wont let me add a pic of my boat to my profile even after i cropped it
