Finally got around to getting the ski turfed. Shawn did a great job. The hood seal has the hood sitting up high in the pics. I need to tweak the hood hooks a bit. but it'll be finished soon. Water temp is still 39F on the river so it'll be a minute before it gets dropped in.
But the turf looks SICK

I think simple is good sometimes. The black white scheme is cool.

I would just keep it well waxed to keep the black crud off.

Where is the exhaust ring from? it looks good.

Agreed. And the exhaust and scupper ring came that way from wammer. I'm going to make a billet scupper cap at work next week and just cap it off.

Ran the ski this past weekend. half a tank of old gas, half a tank of fresh 110, a little sea foam, and wow. Even coming from the xs1000 last year this boat is set up right. Amazing how different the ski is with a 50lb lighter 08+ bottom hull. It is perfect in the big chop and screams. From about 10mph to 50 it is stunning. I love this little 828 Riva!!
