I'm pretty sure only the topdeck is modeled after an SXR. Bottom is Superjet.
Reduced engineering (cost) and ease of construction with a heavier/thicker layup. Also, while they still handle good when they are light, they handle better with more weight.Totally agree...the weight can't be the only factor because mine carves like a Stock SXR and is way lighter...which is why I have always wondered why Kawi made them SO DANG HEAVY! Oink oink.
Don't personally know about lighter sxr handling, but I did notice that my sxr 1100 handled ruff water turns better than my stock ski did, seems like the added weight kept it from getting pushed around by the waves as much, guess it would have the opposite effect by lighting the hull..
By about 2000 racers started adding anywhere from 20-40 lbs of lead up under the engines and gas tanks. RAYCE even came out with a bracket that let you easily add weight. The SXR was built heavy and designed for racing and racing only.Totally agree...the weight can't be the only factor because mine carves like a Stock SXR and is way lighter...which is why I have always wondered why Kawi made them SO DANG HEAVY!

I think EME can do a Yamaha pump now...there is a few micros out with that setup which isn't what you would be looking for. Have you rode an EME Aerial 8? I am building one currently and have rode one a few times...really fun stuff
Ive been riding sxr for a couple of years now and when i hop on a aquabot at wf it was like riding my sxr but waaaaay lighter and fun . Ill be sure to let you know when im done with mineYa I've looked at the brawler, sxr top deck, super jet bottom.
I guess my main question is which am hulls are capable of flat water bf's (or at least off a boat wake) with a limited sxr power plant but still be stable and a enjoyable rec ride boat for a big guy, I'm 6'1' 230lbs right now but loosing weight...
Looks like a trinity evo, eme q8, or rok would be good choices...
