i got out on lake houston a week ago friday, but was just to see if the carbon seal was leaking and see what else needed work on the ski. just yesterday replaced the rear support bearing assy, rebuilt the pump with new solas concord and wear ring. just finished filling with oil and putting the nozzle on, just waiting on the trim and steering bushings to come in so i can put the trim ring and steering nozzle on and get back to the lake hopefully this coming weekend. its raining cats and dogs over here in W. Houston right now.
