I really thought these were painted but that definitely appears to be gelcoat. If you go with gelcoat with a thickened epoxy or even a layup make sure you go with an epoxy like total boat or West systems. Some won't bond with gelcoat. I've had great luck on my 50 footer with west systems...
Nice. Perfect ski for what I want it for - wake in a busy channel with a longgg no wake. when the 2T guys wont even bother riding on the weekends when it's the most busy b/c of the long asss no wake, I stay out there and w/ easy re-fuel at any fuel dock. Cant do that w my flatwater ski...
There's like 3 holes you can set the ball in up on the turnplate where the bars mount. Put the ball in the outside hole. You'll then have to make a few adjustments to the cable up top and at the jet to re-center the nozzle. Its in the manual too
I just put some where the factory had - at the raised mating surfaces at each bolt and then a thin bead across the leading edge of the RP, then smooth it out as soon as you tighten it up. And as Sano said - I used a drop of blue on the first few threads and then silicone on the remaining threads.
just call riva and ask them for a package deal on the steering system - it's not bundled together on their site. they knocked a good bit off for me but noted I'm a repetitive customer.
Yea I got bruised by the bars at the tops of my legs on some big air - riva steering on the way. The pw plate is a big improvement it’ll slide out but not noticeably more mine still hooks pretty aggressively.. maybe due to the wider hull..?
I'm not sure why you wouldn't I hate coming out of the tray. I'll take any help I can get. You guys act like this thing is an octane. The power to weight is just about the same as the gen 1 rn. And there is weight to be lost on this ski.
Sup guys. Learned about this 4x4 beach last summer, didn't realize you can beach here. Is that still allowed or is that area closed? Couldn't tell from their website.
