Surfriding ScottS's Matrix ES at last

[ScottS]

Cases together and crank in. Jetskisolutions rebuilt stator and a TBM flywheel. This was one of the older RRP TBM's. I had to change it out for the new style when I added the ATP EPIC ignition as the magnet spacing caused the EPIC to freak.

Crap, I just looked up and it's snowing. It hasn't snowed in Savannah in 20 years! Will I ever get to ride this thing? What happened to global warming??? Wife just told me to settle down, it's suppose to be 70 this weekend coming.

A little work and matching of the exhaust manifold, pistons on and then the cylinder.

The motor pic without the pipe was in my SJ, the others are in the Matrix

I didn't talk about it much when I ordered it. I knew that the date I was told that the ski would be ready would slip, even though Bobby was pretty close to the original six months that he told me it would take. I hate hearing, when is it going to be ready, when is it going to be ready??? If it warms up next weekend, you need to meet us at the spot. Maybe Jose and Lucas will show up with those super light rockets and we can see the difference.

Thanks for all the pics.

Its nice to see the dasa and X cylinders side by side.

Your ski is really coming along nice.

[Aircraftsalz]

I'll stick with Josh, lol

I may come down too if the weather warms up a bit. I don't mind the cold but I hate driving all that way to have all you guys puss out at the last minute. :biggrin:

I can't wait to ride that -2" again. I couldn't put my finger on what I liked about Scott's hull but it was definately a fun ride that turned on a dime. Not sure if it was the trim angle, super short pole, stiff pole or the short hull but something about the whole combo was feeling great. Scott put some length back into the pole and changed up the ride plate so it will be interesting to ride it again. It's nice to finally have another Matrix on the water and even better that it's in our group. Too bad i'm a goofy foot and all that tray work is lost on me.

Looks good man, I'm glad someone else turfed the side rails of the matrix - I didn't wanna be the only one when I get mine!

Time to change the avatar.

I planned to do mine but everybody freaked, (Bobby and my Wife) when I went to actually do it and said it would look bad. I love the look without it too but it's just too much of a hazard so i will be doing mine once I get a few more chips, chunks and scratches in them.

Love the innovative tray design!
