I just wanted to find people with the same kind of boat as me.
I have a 88 Supra Comp ts6m.
I thought there might be a way to search the memeber list by boat type, but didn't see anything.

I've got an '88. Had it since '93 and love it!
I had a 1990 supra comp TS6M for 19 years and sold it to buy a mastercraft prostar 205...biggest mistake I have ever made. I love my supra. It handles like it's on rails and has an awesome slalom wake. The 'craft was good... lots of room but drove like a bathtub on the water.
I began searching for another comp and came across my latest purchase in Minnesota. I drove 15 hours to get it (I live in Clarksville, Tennessee) and can't wait to get it in the water. I recently added a 4 blade nimbrel prop, 13 x 13 pitch. I have the original 13 x 13 OJ cupped prop as my backup. It was damaged a little when I bought the boat.
I'll keep you guys posted on when I put her in the water for the maiden voyage. I am SO GLAD to be back in the comp family.
I'll post some pics of my old, and my new boat.
Suprabob,
Love those red boats. My 97 sunsport is same color. What kind of tower did you have on your older boat. Has a nice look to it. Congrats on being back in supra family. I have been riding behind a supra for over 25 years now. There is something about them that keeps us coming back.
I have a '89 Ts6m.

1987 Comp TS6M

I agree dickboxers. I am a 2 week owner of an 87 Comp with Ford 351 that will turn over but not start. As an observer I am getting to know this site well, as I think she will be a bit of a project.
I just picked up a 1987 comp TS6M "Great boat"
She's a comp at heart boys.....only accepts water more easily over the bow!!!!
I have an 86 supra comp that I'm in the process of restoring.
Like Mapleleaf I have an 89 Conbrio. It's a comp hull with an open bow.
I have an 88 Comp. I will try to find the new pictures from last weekend. Still get comments most days at the ramp. Been looking to get into the wake boats, but there is just something about that boat that keeps pulling you back. No tower, no ballast, just pure boat. And a new 242 can't do a power turn!
those power turns bent my rudder!!! And I'm guess'in they'll bend the next one....they're too damn fun.......Quote:

You must be getting more agressive than me. Do you turn then yank the throttle or the other way around? I pull of the power, then as the weight transfers forward, I add the turn input and the stern will slides around.
Long ago, I used to ski with a group of friends who put on ski shows. They had this cool trick that they called "Around the boat" where two skiers would ski around the boat. I never had an oppertunity to try it, but it sure looked cool. Two skiers would ski out on either side of the boat from the wake with a bunch of speed on, and when they came abreast of the boat, they would begin to turn back in, and the driver would initiate a power turn, reversing the boats direction, while the skiers continued skiing the turns they had intiated until they returned to the wake, now heading in the opposite direction. This was really impressive to see, but actually really simple to perform. The skiers just ski, and the boat driver justs drives, no big deal.
Someone needs to try this with video camera to post!
Great boat. Slalom skier from the 70's and 80's -- kids love to wakeboard. The Comp does it all. Second owner. Original owner ran in fresh water and kept in garage (as do I) the entire life of the boat. 238 hours. All original. Factory tower with shade n' store installed this month. Shade n' store is great asset on a boat this size. Pics taken with my iPhone, so quality is not great. Digicam pics too large to upload. Will add some more as time goes by.
I have an 86 Supra Sun Sport Skier (purchased about 1 month ago) - we will be doing some work this winter - mostly floor (stingers) and adding some ballast.

I have an 89. Engine has been tweaked a little.
Comp cam, roller rockers, Edelbrock RPM intake, Pertronix ignition, GT-40 heads, and a new Holley carb.
thanks for all the responses. I didn't even know this thread was still out here. I want to add everyone with the same boat to my contact/friend list in case i ever need any advise about my boat. I figured someone with the same boat would be a good source. does anyone have fat sacs in the comp besides jet. i'm running a 750lb at the moment.
with bags I bought here I can almost get 900lb, but with my budget this summer I've been adding weight with water jugs, tubs whatever!!!! I think I maxed out one session around an est. 1600 lb plus 2X 190 lb men, great wakeboarding wake with that weight but frighteningly low boat, must been done carefully......
I think I am just going to get a 750 for the rear of my Conbrio...thoughts?
I run 800 lbs in mine (2 Fat Sac V-drive sacs @400/ea). Plus people and fuel and have to watch the water! By the way, I have two sacs - not sure of the brand - that are comparable to the V-drive sacs, plus a pump/wire cigarette plug/5 ft hose that I am selling. These are grey 48x16x16 or so. $110 for the set up. They have the sacs and cover bags with straps. The valves are the water bed type. Works well. I wanted black sacs so they would match my carpet.
Comp stuff for sale: I also have the factory grey cover for sale. It is in excellent condition. Put a tower on, so I cannot use it. $200 shipped if anyone is interested. Also have the original dash ski mirror and brackets - $50 and a Cipa Comp windshield mount mirror - new in box - for $60.
Do you think your cover would fit a 1987 model year Comp?Quote:

Just a bit wetter than a the '87 comp but love the boat! Get compliments on it all the time! Have had opportunities to sell it but cannot part with it!
Your hull design looks like mine, less the tower. 20ft length. Cover fits the boat and the swim platform, or just tuck it under the stern if the platform is off. I believe it is a fit. Pic of my boat attached.
here is my 1986 made the tower and speaker box myself
