I haven't had much time to work on my ski much because of the jobs I've been working on. So, I decided to institute what some might call a work exchange program.

Beachjunkey finished up the turf, glassed a crack in the hood, and modded the stock hood a little. I'll get pics of the hood later.

Fathom then went to work and trimmed in the turf and detailed the motor like only he knows how. Joel also tightened up the steering and took care of a couple other details.

when fathom got it it looked like this.

So, Fathom changed up his gallery and none of the photos make sense any more. No big deal.

I'll be taking some new pics soon. I've got an idea to clean up the graphics a little bit. Skulls are staying but the coloration and logos will look a lot better.

The first "ride" I went on (rode it in Feb to make sure it ran) went great. Within 2 1/2 hrs on flatwater I was able to sub it, yeah, my first "trick". I've got maybe 4 hrs total on a standup so I've got a lot to learn but I'm looking forward to it. We're planning a dawn patrol surf ride in the morning, we'll see how that goes.

I've also started using my new truck rack and it works sweeeeeeeet.

Well, I changed up the graphics a little bit. I think it turned out pretty well. Its done with metallic gold over metallic charcoal gray (gunmetal). It really looks sweet in direct sunlight.

Now I just have to get dual attwoods installed with the start/stop switch mounted bilge switch, swap out ride plates, install the hood straps, install my newer pole spring, and cut the pole back 2 inches. I have just about everything I need to do these things, just have to get it done.

Thanks man. The best part is that it runs great. Fast and reliable. A few minor things to go and then I'm not touching anything else. Until it breaks of course.
