Scored me a Yamaha!

Its true what they say, "one mans trash is another mans treasure", I got this for free!! I replaced the battery and the fuel lines, and tinkered with it a little and it runs like a top. The dude said it won't run Laughing

. I was a little worried it wouldn't pull someone but it did great.

Nice

Give it a spray paint job and you will have the hottest ski around.

Greg T, I was totally thinking about that, that purple is god awful. Im also gonna get one of those ski rope eye bolt things too, tieing off to the handles made me cringe.

Ah, good idea, I didnt notice that. You could always loop your rope through that hole in the back on the deck. I did that on an old ski once. It worked, but it basically pulled you from underwater.

Already got an Oak sticker on there too I see?

A spraypaint and stencil job could make that thing look amazing

that thing doesn't have a speedo does it? and you should spray it all black and make it look like one of those skis from waterworld

thats so awesome dude. I bet you're more stoked than someone who paid good money for a newer ski.

A guy at keatons lake has a truck bedliner painted seadoo. its pretty rad.. it probably would cost 200 to coat it with that stuff.. but look at the bright side.. you'd never have to dry it off or worry about water spot marks Laughing

Chris, you have no idea, the stoke is like pumpin Crazy Eyes

Congrats Jesse, those are the best kind of skis to buy... one that needs minor work that someone won't bother to do, or doesn't know about. I'm trying to find one like that but a Yammie Waveblaster
