Very nice of you to offer and I appreciate that. The ski is complete build and ready for my trip. When I'm home in November, I plan to tear it back apart and redo some parts while I rebuild/replace the motor. If your that close you'll have to make it to one of our lake cookouts next year.

Thank you. I saw your build prior and it helped inspire me to go for it. Great thread and info. I see you've been making some more progress. Thanks for sharing!

Music Festival just got canceled, ha! Glad we didn't book another campsite yet. Where does everyone camp? For the original weekend 11-14, any advise on booking a campsite? Do you have to specify a mile marker or site? I plan to call the number listed tomorrow to get a site in advance...

Frustration set in on my build. Some from outside sources but also from the pressure and expectations I put on my self. The ski is on the water and I'm almost ready for my trip. I'm still focused on it. I choose to pause the thread at risk of complaining and adding no value for my time or...

@DAG I found most skis I could get my hands on to be between 30-32 inches at the widest points (measuring for spacing on trailer/truck). I'll share some pics of mine over the ski when it comes Friday.

I went with the MAC's. Cheaper on their site but more once you add in shipping. If your going to order multiple or other straps you may want to order form there site. Otherwise it was $22 shipped on amazon...

After the debate and recommendations, I wound up ordering a 32" one from Amazon myself :-)

Looking good!

My current best candidate but want to learn some more first. https://www.mscdirect.com/product/details/80193345 Some other options: http://www.masterduct.com/high-temperature-hoses...

Does anyone have guidance on limits in both heat and preassure? I am looking into some alternatives exhaust hoses to try and share. Just learning and being creative. Share if you know anything :) Based on my reading so far: High Temps probably don't exceed 350F. After looking up specs on...

Yeah I'm debating keeping it. I have a full set of OEMs on hand and half set of cold fusions. Shut the front door! I'm going to have to look at that setup and see if I prefer it. Good tip, thanks!

Can you share a pic? I bought the cold fusion mount but it requires three holes as well.

I'll look into it. Thanks for the tip!

That's to get on the beach and ride correct? We will still need to leave at night to sleep somewhere. We are looking for a campground near by or may boondock it in a parking lot.

I think we will be seeing ya at least one day! Looking for another cam ground we can call home.

After straightening up the tank, I was able to move it forward some more and find the sweet spot where nothing would hit anything with good clearances in and motor position. Still, I will turf and pad everything :-) It was too late to go find carbon, resin, and mix up glue. I decided to...

I aligned with out the couplers on the pipe for a while (best visual on angles) but eventually caved and put them on. This is the waterbox, tank, and pipe locations in rearward most motor mount. Now the motor is slide to the forward most mount (simulating both RRP spacers). You can see...
