How are your boats running? I'm gonna be tinkering with mine starting next week. I suspect I'm not the only one with last minute testing and tuning to do. Let me know where you guys are at with things and how I can help.
 
I have de winterized my skis, fresh fuel and that baffle I picked up from you over the winter (no Bueno) but haven't put them in the water. Hope to get out this weekend or beginning of next week for shakedown runs.
 
Thanks Matt. Going to start mine for the first time this weekend. Do you guys have a place to stay yet? Worried about you guys traveling from so far with no home yet.
 
No my wife and I need a room. If anybody decides they can't make then please give us your reservation.


Krispy what is "no bueno"? The fuel baffle?

Yea, I remember you being unsure if it worked or not, it indeed needed the F1 fuse fix. I did that but it seems to read low on a full tank. Since I just put fresh fuel in I'll run it before I pull it back out. I did bench test it after my fix and the resistance was off a bit from spec.

As for a room, I think my wife might bail on me, if that is the case I will gladly share a room with y'all.

I might have to give mine up so you will be the 1st to know. I might have to be in ft wayne IN saturday night.

Im going to put my skis in this weekend to see what i got.
 
I put down for an extra room. I'm going to call and verify this morning. Who needs a room if we do not find a house?
 
Will be getting the spec 2 dialed in the next couple weeks. Those who need a room there are plenty of hotels in the area. I can recommend a few depending the area people want to stay. The lake is very big, 12 miles north to south so many places to stay. For those worried about launching there are also quite a few access ramps to go out of. They are all free.
 
There is an outside chance I will be buying one, but don't count on me. I have not heard of anyone bringing one yet.
 
I'm ever so tempted... but this will be a jet ski party, and I don't have two towing vehicles... If someone wants to lend me an x4, I'll bring it ;)
 
It's a bit of a drive for me in Ohio, 452 miles, Six hours +. But, I dangled---> first time out with Ski's this season DEAR! She's thinking hard about it. Just have to set the hook! Pull them out into sun and wax them. Might start one when she comes outside.
 
I'm still hoping I can squeeze this in, I should be back from my family vacation in time, just not sure if I can break away for a 2nd trip in 30 days. I need to get off my azz and get my X sponsons installed. like this week.
 
We are 4 weeks out. This thing is sneaking up on us. Everyone getting their duckies in a row?

I still have a number of parts to order and replace to get the ski ready. :facepalm:
 
I've got both GTX's started and polished. Not sure if I can even splash them before the meet. I start work on the GSX soon.

I am concerned that housing is still an issue for Matt and Tonka. I should have some space in the house we rented for Friday and Saturday night if needed, but not Thursday.
 
What parts you needing?

I've got quite a bit of X4 items.

Are your skis still at lake? Bring one to Raleigh. I ride every Saturday/Sunday at falls.

New fuel sending unit (with repair made), new fuel selector valve, VTS rod for extended pump (mine snapped), and I need to freshin up the carbs with new needle/seat. Going to order from Tonka here soon.

If that doesn't solve my problems then I will either drop in my spare motor or bring the garage queen.
 
[MENTION=52309]MPower[/MENTION] I've got the VTS rods. I don't use VTS on my skis so I have a couple of the entended ones from fresh water skis.

$20 if you want it. I'll put it in my mailbox and you can grab anytime.
