Thinking about selling my ski... There is a house that I want to buy and need down payment money. Hate to do it, but NOW is the time.... I have another ski build set up for this winter.

What do you guys think its worth? i have a ton of time and mods in this boat(as you can see)..


Hull/hull parts:

Started out with a 96 Superjet virgin w/no cracks, no damage whatsoever. The 96 and 97 hulls are the best built of all the Round nose 96-07 Superjets. Just ask some Pro builders.
Hull custom PPG paint top and bottom(bottom US flag painted last winter)
Custom US flag on bottom painted last winter(metallic light blue background w/stars and red waving bars)

The hull reinforcing is done by me and my business for the last 15 years is fiberglass repair and refinishing, so this is a very professional job. I spent WAY, WAAAYY to much time doing this job because seriously I thought I would keep this ski forever. Its done right and has held up perfect for 3 years. When you see the job in person you will understand. Its the perfect amount of reinforcing.. not to heavy, not to light.

(in a nutshell)....
Bond line filled with epoxy/milled fibers. Reinforced with light matting from bottom SMC to bond line then 1708 biax over that from bottom to hood seal lip. Hood seal inner lip area filled and 1708 to hood seal area, nose pockets filled and cross wrapped from bond line to bond line under h pole bracket, US Epoxy resin, all green glue ground down, back bulk head wall reinforced also. Side rails overhang and green glue cut flush. Everything sealed with 3M 5200 REGULAR, not quick dry. There is a big difference in quality.

Hull had no wet foam when I bought it and put the footholds in. I know this as I completely defoamed one side for light reinforcement for 3/4 barrel roll slaps. Everything was meticoulsy done to ensure no water would ever get inside this hull. All exhaust and scuppers completely sealed.

24/7 Millenium footholds
Wamiltons hood w/ 5 holds
Wamiltons lowered nose piece w/ single breather
Wamiltons SS lowered pole bracket
Wamiltons billet hood hook receivers(hull)
X-metal SS hood hooks(hood)
Wamiltons Stainless steel hood latch assy.
Shortened 05' pole (-5"), SS rivets reinforced and wrap/tapered and painted with extra care.
X-metal steering plate w/ straight bars(-2.5" total) Total is -7.50" on pole.
Jet-Dynamics ride plate
X-metal scupper valve
R&D Lenzi intake scoop grate
Hydro-turf grey X molded turf in tray and around all bumpers
3ea. Blowsion 1" Gold bypass fittings 6mm
Custom polished alum fuel cap block off plate by JD Machine
Rule 500 bilge pump w/ Blowsion midshaft bracket
Pro-tec billet finger throttle


Engine area:
DASA Shortblock completely rebuilt as of May 2010 w/ 42 gallons of fuel ran through it(110/91 50/50 mix) as of 8-9-10. All machine work done by DASA, porting by JetWorks... It was done right the first time, no guess work with these builders.

BRAND NEW OEM YAMAHA crankshaft w/ 42 gallons of fuel used with it
62T cases, epoxied, ported and cylinder matched by JETWORKS
DASA 7 port cast cylinder ported by JETWORKS
DASA billet head w/28cc domes @200 psi even on both cylinders.
NEW 85.50mm Wiseco Flat top pistons(comes to 780cc)
R&D billet 3 degree angled reed spacer
Moto Tasinari V force II cages/carbon reeds
BLACK JACK dual 44mm carbs on modded OEM manifold w/crossover blocked
Tau Ceti Carbon fiber flame arrestors
FPP 61X "B" pipe with Ltd. chamber, exhaust manifold and head pipe bored/ported to 49mm and stinger mod done.
JetWorks Flow control valve
True dual line cooling from pump to ex manifold
FPP alum lightweight waterbox
WAMILTONS front exhaust "T" and front exhaust outlet
COLD FUSION billet worlds lightest strongest couplers
Monkey Grips motor mounts




Electrical:
MSD dual digital total loss system(newest model available)
OEM Yam starter solenoid
Power source sealed AGM battery
Military grade power switch from Jetski Solutions
New OEM start/stop switch last summer


Pump area:
mint OEM pump w/ new driveshaft last year
w/ Group K pump blue printing(casting defects removed and smoothed out everywhere)
LPW 85mm bore pump nozzle
Skat-Trak swirl 12/17 impellor cut back 7mm and kicked by Impros
Impros billet Pro impeller cone
New midshaft last year
CATS trim system using Superjet pump nozzle with welded tabs that are tapped for Raider trim ring and nozzle. This mod gives more throw than just using the OEM Raider shorter pump nozzle. Gets 30 degree of throw this way.
Terry cable trim cable
Pro-tec billet trim lever

I have a new aftermarket composite pole pad on the way to replace the OEM POS that is on there now. This is the only thing this ski needs to be perfect. Oh and i need a new bilge pump switch. for now I just twist the wires.
Im sure there are some things on the ski that Im leaving out.

The current pics are below.

I was going to respond last night but I don't have a clue what that would be worth, all I know is it's out of my budget. This ski is very nicely set up and by the sounds and look of it, a very meticulously assembled and maintained ski.

That being said, there have been some very nicely setup skis that end up being parted out recently. I hope yours does not resort in that.

Shooting from the hip, IDK, $7k?

Creative RE Purchasing
In all seriousness... when I was thinking about selling my surf ski with just a ported cylinder and head pipe a couple months ago I was offered $5,500 by one guy... but that was just one person...

Your ski has a couple more parts than mine and some that are just better quality than mine... and the whole engine setup...

I'd say $7,000 is a pretty good estimate, but I also bet no one in this current economy would pay that.

I kinda agree with this guy.. It's a very nice ski but gotta figure out what you are looking to cash out with .. If you got better then 6 thousand i would say you got lucky.. good luck and nice ski

Thanks for the honest comments guys,I really appreciate it. I figure 7.5K is fair with the new all alum trailer w/alum axle. The trailer is a tote in itself, I love it. Plus it does have a new rebuilt DASA motor that is pretty insane.

I love this ski too much to get rid of it cheap and take it up the tail pipe on the price.
I bought my first ski in 1990 and this is what Ive worked up too and its been a long road... We all know how much work/time/money can be put into a complete freestyle ski, especially when your not a rich mofo that has money to throw around on toys.
