OK cool, nothing major then. I'll take a look around and see where its missing. Thanks for the fast reply!

Getting my '99 superjet ready to go for the year and found this in the hull under the motor. Anyone know what it is and where is goes? Ski ran great when I put it away last fall.

I've finally got a cart for my Superjet, should have done it years ago. Makes it so much easier pulling it up the beach on Lake Michigan, instead of dragging the ski. It would be much easier to load the damn thing though if the cart didn't float. Are they supposed to float or is there...

Thanks for the quick reply. Is that fine thread? Is there fine thread on NPT?

I'm going to drill and tap my Factory Pipe exhaust manifold for dual cooling. I've got the fitting but what size threads are they? I need to buy a tap. Thanks

OK thanks. I think I'll go with the ball type. Do they drain fast too?

I've got a single 500gph bilge and it takes a bit to catch up after a sub. I think i'd rather go with a scupper to get rid of the water quick. The Versi-Plug MAX is a ball style one too. I've heard of the flap style ones breaking or getting stuck open and sinking the ski. Who sells the...

I am going to install a scupper on my 99 superjet. What is a good one to get? I was looking a the Versiplug-MAX on the JetManiac list. Is that a better setup than a 'flap' style scupper? How does it work exactly? Thanks

The never ending battle with the SJ just keeps going this year. I was talking the battery box out so I could pull the fuel tank and replace the steering cable and 2 bolts broke of as soon as I starting turning them out. Of course they broke of down inside the hull 'fitting' a bit so I can't...

NO they didn't have the 1.25. That is what is coming tomorrow.

OK, thanks. I got one ordered and should have it tomorrow, they didn't have the fine thread in stock. Hopefully all goes well.

You have to drill with a 9/16 bit for the insert. There's Enough room for that?

So I've got a stripped hole on my Factory Pipe exhaust manifold, the one on the inside nearest the cylinder. I bought a 10 x 1.25 tap and tried cleaning the threads and using a longer bolt but it won't tighten down. Can I drill and tap it with the next standard size? If so what would be the...

Yep, just got it put on. I guess Solas are the only ones polished and that's all I've ever had on it. Thanks

I just bought a new Hooker 10/16 impeller for my SJ. When it took it out of the box it is all rough and unsmooth metal, looks just like the raw metal after they 'sanded' it. Is that right?? In the pics it looks like they are polished and smooth. I thought you want the impeller to be slippery...
