Which ski after the JS?

[SVTPete83]

A 550 reed motor ski cant even keep my on plane coming out of an aggressive turn. 701 sq sj. There is no other option to get at that price point.

like I said....it has to have a new prop...
and it is very hard to find a 701 sj for under 2k

also, considering he is coming from a 440, a 550sx will be a huge power improvement and can be had for ~800 bucks
but if he wants to spend the big bucks, an sj is a great choice

Ok, well it'll be a SJ next. I just picked up a beat up JS550 cheap as a project. I wish I'd known beforehand what I was getting into with this 550 project, I could have already had that SJ. Full engine replacement, top end job, new pistons, new case and crank, steering and throttle cables, pump bushing and seals, the list just goes on and on, most expensive stock 550 ever. Well it'll be another ski in the collection, it's going to my daughter...

if you're a 440/550 rider, the first thing you'll notice about a square is they don't lean on their side like a JS hull will. Round Nose SJs 2008+ lean much better than the 96-07 RN.

If you're a big guy, you'd love an SXR. During the winter they go for under $4k
