O.K., thanks, I thought it was an endangered species or something, I guess us old 2-stroke guys are behind the times. I would think it would be totally unnecessary on a small ski.

Lou.
Here is a picture of the OPAS system.
More or less like little paddles attached to the stern quarters. Work is direct correlation with the handle bars. At higher speeds they don't stick out so there is no drag.

Honestly... I would LOVE for the next ski would be a slighty larger Spark, but with the 255 4-tec engine in it. So... a no frills, light weight hot-rod. (no suspension, no paddle OPAS, no iBR, no trim, no tilt steering, no security system, basic gauges... etc)
an 800 etec
That's funny Dr., I'm hoping the next lightweight seadoo is even smaller than the spark (X4 size) with either an 800 etec or force fed ACE in the tune of 150+HP. One things for sure, the Spark is a good sign for both of our desires.
Will never happen, they made that very clear. 2 stroke is a step backwards in their eyes. Especially with the design and development of the 900 ACE (specifically made for this project).
Perhaps an FI model, or aftermarket for that matter.

So, do I have to run XPS-II in my OPAS or will any used 5w30 work?
