2006 RXT..won't come out of the water??

[knocker]

Hey guys,
My ski starts just fine, idles just fine, if I just barely give it throttle it will build speed...BUT...if I try and come out of the water it just sits and slips. My tach max's (as if I had a clutch depressed). I was launching in shallow water over a mud bottom and probably took on some mud.
I had a bunch of yahoo know-it-all's advising me that about 8 things are wrong...everything from my intake, the super charger, the seal...etc.!
I figured I come to the experts. Any advise you can give me would really be appreciated.
Thanks...Knocker

sounds like a wear-ring and ill bet thats your problem.... DONT drive in shallow water as the impeller and wear-ring can be damaged, so check them both for wear. The clearance between the impeller and wear-ring is about the thickness of a piece of paper.

Thanks very much for your quick response! I will check both out and post the outcome. Again...I appreciate it...
