Are you going to shorten the rear of the hull?

I ran a -2 X-metal on mine and it was great.

Yeh I just read that in this months watercraft magazine featuring his skis he has for sale. I guess I painted it a little prematurely.:banghead:

One was 2 inches.It really depends on rider weight,height,riding position.Where the pump is set.Handpole length.If your riding flat or surf.
And what ever else affects the balance and responce a rider wants.

Did you ever get that hull shortened? If so did it work as expected?

I've got that -2 off the back stock bottom deck glass light top deck that larry sarinana built and competed on ages ago. He made those QSM Quick style motorsports hulls. Vengeance and something else I think. I had a maxed out 800 motor in it but I didn't really like the way it didn't stick to the water and porpoised. I sold the hull to jetski James and he built a Yamaha 84x6mm stroker and put it in. I bought it back and rode it once in the last 10 years lol. It weighed 299

-2 SXR....so he made an SXI Pro?

 

[subnsxr]

after asking this question 13 years ago I donated my SXR hull to Larry so he could make molds, how many did he ever make?

 

[TheBuzzard]

The vengeance hull was what he last made. Not sure if he made many if any. Never seen any floating around.
