I have 'em. the amount of water with the speed it was entering the hull was more than ANY pump was gonna handle.

I've never lost a ski due to losing a hood. But I have been close. I HAVE lost them due to shaft seal failures and other hull issues. sometimes it's just good to be prepared. if this becomes viable, I'll beging working on it and will make the info public for anyone interested. I'm not looking to...

exactally what I'm thinking. and trust me, what I have in mind will be smaller than a business envelope more or less and weigh a few onces.

good idea, but I was thinking of something a little easier for that average person to use. without needing expesive radio equipment.

I've sunken a couple. everytime I've known I was about to lose it and had "some" time to try to do something about it. I had an idea the other day so I'm doing some research. if you have ever lost your ski, (even if you recovered it later) what was the cause of the loss and how much time did...

I didnt make it today.... went to sleep after I got home from work at 6:30 am instead. I plan on going tomorrow. I'm taking the helmet cam, SLRs and digitals. I hope I can get some good stuff.

dont worry about that bone head... .I'm from Daytona originally and all you have to do is drive down the beach and see the boundry signs, and you know whats up. and as someone else stated, it's not like it's a HUGE secret or anything. sounds like the crap all the surfers used to pull in...

I just got home from work. I'll give you a shout after I wake up. All I need is a location to plug into my Garmin.:biggthumpup:

Is wave rave happening? Datailed map please. all I got from the flyer is New Era, MI. that's quite a ways inland from the lake. aaaah, little help, please.

I'm gonna try to get up there on saturday if I can stay awake after work

well there was no one around the day MY little incident happend, and there is no swimming area on that lake. it was funny cuz none of the things you listed DID happen. jeez, lighten up francis

hahaha! the first day on my 550 I had the idle set too high. I fell off and it didnt even circle... it just took off across the lake till it hit shore about a quarter mile away. pretty funny.

sorry, no pics. all you'd see anyway is a 550 go nose down then stop abruptly sending me over the pole.

As the title implies!:haha: I spiked my 550 into the bottom 4 times yesterday doing subs. this was in the middle of the lake. this lake is known to have shallow spots but even in areas I thought were deep it turned out to be less than 6' so lesson learned. learn the bottom terrain of your...

I feel hypocritical saying that, since I own one. and it isnt just the couchers, but people in general. Jeez, is so hard to learn the boating laws? I was on Gun Lake here in Shelbyville, MI yesterday and the lake was packed. I guess my first clueas to what the day would hold was when some a-hole...

here's where I'm at so far. I'm getting the Kawi sticker for the gunnel made and not sure about the hood. I thought of making it LOOK like a bus... but I think it's be funny for about 5 seconds then I'd feel like a goon ( scratch that.... BIGGER goon). so now I'm not sure.

if for some reason Thong bandit cant get it to you, I can as a back up plan. I also have a truck and spare trailer if needed but I doubt I'll need it. I ustay at my place in orlando when I'm down on these little business trips.. hope this works out, if not, give me a hollar.

I was told explicitly to avoid any ski you've ridden:cool2: :joke: I wanna go, but screwed up work schedual may prevent me. I'll see how it irons out.

I'll get 'em tommorrow. I have to go to work now.

thanx again for the help guys. I got it nailed. turf is DONE!:woot: almost ready to hit the water. maybe this weekend.:biggthumpup:
