It is a entire 98 limited hood. In NC you can tow tubes or wake boarders with just a driver if you have mirrors.
 
UK here I can tow with or without lol I've been looking for a limited hood for a long time and can't find one but saw yours looking sweet so thought I'd ask in case they were from something else
 
What are the two addresses where everyone is staying? The house and the landing?

I figure a meet up each night is in order, the early guys can meet up tonight, and the rest of the folks will arrive tomorrow night.

Personally I will be arriving sometime early Friday afternoon. I have a room at the landing. I heard check in is available at 3PM.

What is everyone else's plan?
 
Ok..................I'll bite. I gotta hear this.

Well, the extra weight is one. My jet ski trailer is designed more for newer skis, and if I fill up the skis and all the canisters, the tongue weight goes up at least 100lbs. Hard as hell to lift onto the ball. The boat actually holds over 200lbs of fuel, so that makes a considerable difference. Then you're driving with that much more fuel, all of it sloshing and evaporating. On a hot day, I've had one can blow off the cap. I've also had one of my skis barf gasoline out of its gas cap. Found out that it was cracked that day. On my boat, if I fill it all the way, it will actually spew some fuel out of the vent. I've since learned to go very easy on the pump nozzle for the last few gallons so as to not make a mess. I'm pretty sure that driving the boat with a full tank makes some of the fuel spill out of the vent. I'll find the side a little slick upon arriving at the ramp. I'll fill it up at the best price around town, but not before a 2+ hr drive. For that, I'll try to keep it as empty as possible. But that's just my .02 ;)

Cleaning up the skis now! We'll be heading that way this afternoon and should be there around 7ish. I'm sure we'd be down for dinner.
 
Lookin' good guys! [MENTION=52309]MPower[/MENTION] is that the garage queen, or did you get your issue sorted from last season?

Nope, that is the resto ski. I did figure out the issue, posted a picture in another thread, but something got in my rear carb and completely jammed the internal filter. Rear cylinder was getting no fuel, rebuilt the carbs, new fuel lines and new fuel selector. Ran great for the 10 minutes before loading them on the trailer.
 
OK, so here is the current map. I suggest some meeting times at the landing. Like tonight sometime for the Thursday night group. And then about 11 AM Friday for the Morning arrivals. Weather is looking better all the time. Should we plan on grilling out on Saturday night at the What a View House? Should I get stuff for that? Or are we just playing it by ear? Does that place have a grill?

 
I'm not one for taking pictures while driving but I'm already in NC, just getting up for bfast then we're headed to the launch to meet up with Wiskey.

Could've made waves for the x4s to jump. Though mine will make a decent wake with some people on-board and just the right throttle. My phone takes sweet videos
 
I can make large wakes with the aquatrax if some one will hang their ass off the back while holding the grab handle
