    Super Jet towing question

    When your ski breaks down in the water and you have to be towed in, does that flood your engine with water? A friend of mine put shut off valves in his waterlines incase he breaks down. wondering if that is necessary? does it matter if you tow the ski backwards or forwards? Thanks.

    thanks for the tips. I am using the right glue, maybe i just need to let the glue dry a little more before I apply it. Anyone have suggestions on how to cut the front bumper shape out of the mating? the 2 pics above show what I was thinking, not sure which way to go with it.
