Look Mom, no seams!

Finished turfing today. New turf on the rails, too.

Now I just have to install her total loss. Maybe I'll find her a b-pipe after that.

My first blown motor

I put total loss on this ski a few weeks ago and couldn't get it to run right. The spark didn't seem right. No throttle response. Would go dead and not start for a while. Checked compression and changed coils a few times. Then it suddenly wouldn't start at all. Timing light showed no spark or off time sparks. Figured it was a bad brain. Maybe it was, I don't know.

Switched it out to a known working stock ignition today and it still won't start. Spark is there with a timing light. Spark....check. Gas via primer.....check. Compression?.....no, I just checked it last weekend......WTF! 25psi in rear cylinder. WTF!?

I have a black cloud over my head this year.

Question is was it the total loss that caused it or was it coming anyway?

Likely problems are....?...bad rings? hole in piston?

This hull is for sale. I found a RN to replace it with. I can sell it complete with everything but a motor or as a bare hull. Price will depend how complete it is.

Bare hull is $400 without pole. I can have John paint it any color for $200.
