It was leaking through the dripless seal. I believe they said the water used for the seal was coming through the seal and into the hull when they were warming the engine to change the oil. We had...

The shop charged us about $2k for replacement. They made it sound like a lot of work, with floor removal, pulling the shaft, reseating the transmission, etc. I think while they were in there, they...

If this is a big issue for you, maybe you should get something like the Cobalt steering wheel.

Went to watch the eclipse at Lake Powell. It was pretty cold, starting at 50 and getting up to about 65 for the day with water at 70 so we didn’t really hop in or surf but used the time to watch the...

Pulled the boat out of the storage unit yesterday to take it down to Lake Powell for the eclipse tomorrow. Feels weird to be headed boating when it was 39F this morning. I will hopefully get some...

Jordanelle would be the last place I would pick for a fall surf! That place is cold in August! :D

Mine was torn ligaments and the tendon on th outside of my ankle pulling away and taking bone with it. Would up with microfracture to reestablish the tendon. It is mostly better but I have a numb...

I caught a bad edge on a ski with the boot adjusted too tight and wound up wearing a different kind of boot for 12 weeks :-D

Somebody on FB was asking Drew about comparing the audio of the new SV to the Paragon JL subs built into the hull. Drew's response is an all timer: "Try it out. It’s designed to be more of a surround...

My bet is on reduced torsion load at the connection with the hull, reducing the warranty claims due to leaking surf pipes.

I caught this Moomba Mobius LSV escaping the shade around the corner from our houseboat. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230731/0f452370bc119e5cfeff6600b249e4db.jpg

Lost Eden Canyon at Lake Powell. We just had an amazing week.

Supra will be releasing a new model as well. The SV. I’m assuming it will be larger.

That would make me consider bringing it home myself. Perhaps do a factory pickup and spend a week out on the lakes in Tennessee!

Like I said, that was my experience. I used 5200, river raft repair glue, I tried to temp repair with tear aid (worthless), I used the kit provided with the bags, everything outside of a PVC re-weld...

No. It is heat welded to a disc on the bottom of the fitting. The bag has a beaded lip that also sits in the fitting. If you bag is put in and loads on the fitting incorrectly, it will ruin the seal...

I had that happen last year. Tried three different things and while they all helped a little, none was entirely successful. I wound up buying a new bag. I think to be successful, you need to be able...

I wouldn't be terribly surprised if you could get lead, but Wakemakers is only providing steel.

An advantage of lead is that it doesn't rust. If it is exposed to low acid or high salt water, you may see a dark gray corrosion, but if you see typical red rust, it has been contaminated with steel....

I think that breaker has caused a problem for everyone at some point.

I think there is a tension adjustment in the throttle but I can’t remember where I saw that either.

There isn't a lube point. We have have had a bunch of boats and have seen all kinds of throttle issues, but usually with cheaper boats. When the throttle gets difficult to move or to shift in, there...

It really is about the balance of the prop overall. Like I said, our damage was almost imperceptible. My brother-in-law hit an underwater shoal at Lake Powell last weekend and trashed his prop, with...

My sister in law hit something with our boat. There was no apparent damage but it vibrated at 8 mph. Changed the prop and the vibration went away. Took it to the prop repair shop and there was a...

Better fuel efficiency would be greatly appreciated, but I think that is a fruitless battle. Now you will start seeing all the e-boats.
