    One more thing--I looked thru the Sales Brouchure and they don't show a Legacy closed bow.
    The Comp is the only boat they show in closed bow. Of these two.
    I can make some copies of the info I have, if you want.
    Let me know.

    I concur. My only question is that the Legacy graphic is in fact an actual Supra Legacy graphic. It would seem strange that someone would have added that for no apparent reason.

    I double concur. And that "legacy" lettering doesn't look like any Supra lettering I've seen so it may not even be factory. Of course, like I always say . . . . during those years Supra didn't seem to be too concerned about it much if they put together a boat that was just a little different and undocumented. You may have a one-of-a-kind. Jim Jackson would probably know because he worked there during that time - I think.

    Jeffrey - pretty boat by the way! I love a good Comp!

    I can confirm that the lettering is factory. I have a friend with a Legacy and it's exactly the same. This may be a one-off Legacy from the factory, or someone just added a Supra Legacy badge to a Comp.

    Legacy or a Comp, either way-a fantastic ski boat, to be enjoyed.

    That's a Comp. 100% sure.

    The Legacy was based on the Comp hull to give it the same performance, but with an Open Bow. It's 4.5" longer than a Comp, and obviously open bow. It is not a trim package. The Legacy is basically the modern version of a Mariah. Open bow, slightly longer, based on the same low profile hull of the comp.

    Congrats, you have a Comp. One of my most favorite of the Supra line.

    I messaged Jim at Viper last night and this is his reply:

    "No, it would be a Comp. The Legacy is available with two different bow configurations, but both were open bow! The fifth digit of the serial number should be a 1, if its a Legacy it would be an 8."

    There you have it - check your serial number!

    Jeffrey that's a beautiful boat! I hope you don't put a tower on . . . but understand if you do. Comp's are just so sexy the way they are without the tower!

    That's fine. Don't believe me. Hater.

    Besides, you know this boat is in the archive section right?
