[QUOTE="creepycrawly, post: 667139, member: 9808"] Thanks man. It was on the lake already when I showed up to buy it so I got to ride it. It was a little hard to start but ran decent. Swapped plugs out last night, topped it off with fresh 89 non ethanol today and put about 4 hours on it. It ran great all day long. The only thing I have found that doesn't work is the bilge pump and I am not sure that isn't operator error. I can't get over how clean the ski is. Today was the first time it had ever seen salt water. I stopped and put it in the river today after the gulf just to get a full power fresh water rinse. Then came home and cleaned it up pretty well with the hose. I don't have the attachment to hook the hose up to it, so I gotta grab one this week. We had a blast. It definitely doesn't handle rough water as well as my buddy's VX cruiser waverunner, but man this thing scoots. It definitely goes fast enough that I don't want to hit the water wide open. I can't imagine one of those 300hp units, but I also don't want the added maintenance. They can't be THAT much faster. The better fuel economy of the 4 stroke would be super nice, but I am happy with mine for what I have in it. [/QUOTE]
