This is gonna make me seem like an idiot, but I'm used to that.
I've been having cavitation issues for quite a while. It turns out to be a combination of things....the most stupid follows.
Ya know how weeds will take away your power? Well, I guess a clear plastic bag will do the same thing...
All of the above.....lol. A fairly common question not yet posted: "Can you fish off of that thing?"
It's actually a shame that so few people are familiar with what we do.
A cooling line would make me happy! Can't find any cracks in the hull. Steering cable is sealed with 5200. Factory bilge still loops up above the water line.
Submerged the ski as much as possible at the spot/ramp (not running) and could not see water coming in anywhere.
It's probably gonna be...
A buddy hooked me up with a "nearly new" seal & bearings....(Thanks Josh). It was a lot easier than I thought it would be.
Unfortunately, still taking on water. I'm hoping that a cooling line is the problem. Gonna run it on the trailer, in the water for close inspection. Then, there's always...
You're the best surfrider I've ever seen.
Now, you've taken the whole "build thread" idea and condensed it to a video just a few minutes long.
Dammit Man!
"There can be only one"
Duh........I guess the hulls are competitive when compared to each other. It will come down to riding style and what works for the rider. And we know that all riders are different.
So, as it should be, riders will hopefully get a...
Sorry...but I searched.....
Simple question: did the 650 yamaha sj in 1993 run a 144 pump?
Standard sellers don't give dimensions in schematics.
Thanx,

You guys are killing me!
B4 we decide who is #1, lets allow these guys to make some hulls. And sell some hulls.
The market will settle it in the end.
X10....but only if I log in on the home page.
If I click "forum" prior to logging in it works. Thought it was my computer...but it happened at work as well.
I've never worked on the mid-shaft b4...(obvious)....will gladly accept tips & tricks to do a good install!
Funny thing is that the bearings feel pretty good....minimal play. This could very well be the source of my low end cavitation as well.
Sucking air from the engine compartment.
I will...
I don't get it. What could possibly be wrong? This mid shaft looks fine to me! I'm pissed at Yamaha for this inferior product! It onlt lasted 8 years! (well, maybe 7.....the water mark tells me it may have been an issue for a while)....But still!!!!
LOL...
pics of garbage seals/housing....all...
