Another 97 Super Sport

[BWB-745-]

Finally got her home!

Have to make another trip to get the top half of the tower but made a quick, and relatively dry wakeboard run Saturday. Unweighted and no tower but probably the most fun ride I've ever had.

Sweet! Welcome to ownership!

Only been a non-boat owning member for 4 years, ha.

Congrats on the pick up. I thought that looked like a clean SS on craigslist. Is the tower from an 06 210?

I'm not sure, the PO used to be a member here and said it was compatible with this hull/deck. Is there an ID number on the tower that I could find? I'm pretty sure he got the tower from someone here.

I haven't been able to get as much work done on the boat as I'd like, but slow progress is better than no progress.

My bachelor party is this weekend so hopefully the following weekend.

Little $20 ballast to help keep it even. I think I've got some Velcro grab handles from my old Jeep that will make moving them around a little easier.

What do those things weight?

[BWB-745-]

Once it dries I'll weigh them, didn't want to risk dropping one and getting concrete everywhere.

I did almost that same thing with a bunch of old lead wheel weights (found a shop several years ago that let me have a few bucket fulls) and sand. I don't know how heavy they were, but lets just say, they worked.... It was a bi*** moving them though..... lol

35lbs each.

Although it was basically an impulse purchase at home depot I'd probably go with 3' tube. These were 4.5" and 2' long.
