I used to have that same engine in my old GSX....96-97? The pylon they put on the new GTX models and RXT will not fit on that hull....might wanna check out something else

yeah i cant wait til we have some warmer weather.

does anyone know how hard a fish eye ski hook is to put on an older seadoo???

It wouldnt be hard as long as you can access the part in the hull from the inside....make sure it is mounted good and correctly... WAIT now that i look at it..the ring on the back is MADE for pulling ropes..aslong as tie down straps

yeah a regular U shaped ski loop works fine exept i have a carbon handle so i cant feed it back through the rope to connect it so i need the little hook that goes into the middle of the U, http://www.seadoo.com/en-CA/Watercrafts/2006/Accessories/Product.htm?CS_ProductID=291001232&CS_Category=Waterskiing_wakeboarding&CS_Catalog=SeaDooWatercrafts_2006&sortBy=SortByProductOrder¤tIndex=0&productCode=26
i took a closer look, shouldnt be a problem to swap hooks, just have to find a place that sells them.

Just use one of those mountain climber type clips that everyone uses for key chains and put it on the end loop of the line and clip it onto the U it works just fine.

How much did you buy the sea-doo for?

3300$, its in really good shape, low hours, and it was only 10 minutes away to pick up so it worked out well.
