Hey guys, first-time owner and poster here. My husband and I just scored a 2004 GTX Wake with 150 hours from my uncle and have only taken it out four times. This past Sunday, we had the sea doo out for most of the day with zero isssues, after running out most of a full tank of gas, I pulled it...

So i bought a 1997 Seadoo challenger on Sunday and it is my first boat ever... Hurrayy!!!!! When i got there the guy connected the hose and started it up and it ran just fine. I took it out yesterday and the boat was very boggy and within a minute of putting it in the water, water was leaking...

I'm actually a Yamaha guy but have always wanted a Seadoo (originally up North in Valdez as a wannabe Skidoo snowmachiner with an Arctic Cat!) but determined, since my 2000 black ice incident, to go marine now as a disabled elder. Opportunities abound in SE Alaska for fun on PWC's but safety...

Hey guys, just bought a Sea-Doo Challenger (year 2000) that apparently has been properly stored and had the carbs re-built last year. My question is when the weather warms up what are the top things i need to do as a new owner. I.e. ensure certain things are checked out/replaced? Erwin

This is my first post other than my introduction in Meet and Greet. I was recently given a 1996 Challenger that had a corroded engine but got that replaced so it's brand new (2 days old). We've had the boat out only once but love it. I have a few questions that seem stupid but I don't know...

I'm a new owner of a 96 Challenger. It was a gift. Has a brand new engine installed recently. Looking forward to using the forums to learn a lot and better use my boat. I have perused some posts and there are a lot of very knowledgeable folks on here. I will be posting in a more specific...

Hello, I was recently 'quasi-gifted' a 2005 Challenger 1800 with only 100 hours on the clock by my brother on the 3rd of August, but the only things I know about marine activities comes from 8 years in the US Navy, so I figure my learning curve will be steep for a little while. But, based on my...

Hello! I am currently in the market for a pair of nice used skis. Today I saw a set of 2004 GTX 4-tec's that looked in good shape from their pictures and are being sold by a dealer in DE. I will be vacationing out there this weekend and was planning on heading over to look at them. They are...

Hi all - love the forum, been searching boats the boat side and the pwc for while now (wife thinks I'm slightly out of my mind... but that's ok). I'm looking to pick up a pair of 3 seaters for river, lake and maybe (very maybe) ocean use here in SoCal. I'm trying to budget around $4000 including...

New to the PWC world, i recently became the owner of a 97 GTX and 97 XP in a swap of services with a customer. Definetly finding out I have allot to learn about workings of the 787. Lots of systems I dont completely understand yet but i am a fast learner. Look forward to chatting with everyone...
