    No, wood platform but the rest is pretty much spot on. Towed a skier this weekend and at 30 on a plane it is smooth as silk, just the part throttle thing. The guy I towed is a pretty seasoned slalom...

    Yes, exactly. It doesn't feel like anything is wrong necessarily, it just resonates. The loud exhaust is actually one of the things I enjoy about the boat, my wife says it doesn't sound like anyone...

    Wow, I'm glad I asked. I was under the impression anything built after 93 was composite, that would have been a big mistake. What would I look for to be sure if I do make the trip to look at it?

    Kind of the way I was thinking too. From what I am reading it isn't a question of "if" but "when" you have to do stringers in the older boats, correct?

    I'm a new guy and if all goes well will be joining the supra gang soon. Over the last couple of years at my lake place I have been losing interest in the PWC stuff and started considering a boat.
