No gel coat to deal with! 
Haha, yea.. you just have to replace the whole thing, as a matter of fact i got insurance and going $250 deductible... i paid $5900 with seadoo move trailer plus tax & license.. total $6653 out the door..No gel coat to deal with!
I got a decent price i bought it at the boat show... Hopefully i take it out tomorrow
No 60hp 2 up, I figured I can reflash to 109 soon so why pay for the 90? I know the price is not great I overpaid $300 in my view, but that would mean I get a no name trailer or used trailer.

I bet Seadoo sells a ton of those if they can keep that price!

Ok guys here it goes, here is a video of me on the lake trying my new 2014 SeaDoo Spark:
[video=youtube;ZXMvkxckZ6U]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZXMvkxckZ6U[/video]
Its probably hands down the best Ski I ever rode.. Wow.. of course I haven't driven more than 5 different skis, from Yamaha to Kawasaki or SeaDoo. But undoubtedly SeaDoo has a winner here. Please remember this is only 60hp, and I was breaking it in. It is so nice and nimble, I only rode it for an hour and it only used 10% of the fuel... which is sick. wow.
Ill have an indepth review later on! enjoy...
I am very happy with it, its way better than I ever expected. At the end of the video I got excited cuz when I hit the throttle the ski did like a wheelie.. woh.. it handled amazingly, i couldnt record the awesomeness when I hit some waves that some boats created, but it was an super nice experience.
I believe that it brought back everything that made me love skiing on the water... Even if the hull is somewhat thin like others have mentioned, I dont see any problem SeaDoo creating a stronger hull like a kayak.
But SeaDoo definitely has something here... Remember that SeaDoo was probably targeting a customer like me, the reason I bought a boat at first instead of a PWC is because the prices made me take a second look at boats, why buy a ski when I can buy a boat?..
Now that I have this spark, its making me look twice at my boat? do I really need it? man I could buy 2 of these Sparks, AND save $10,000 dollars doing that instead of a boat?
Awesome hands down, cant wait to go back on the water

I do like those 4-strokers. Smooth, durable and good on operational costs. I guess as far as the boat goes it's all in what you need, we mostly ride three passengers in ours with two dogs out to the island and swim around there for the day, so it works well for us.
