I have been trying to unload of this thing for a while now. I know Direct Drives are not "in" right now but whats the deal? is it prices to high?

I have seen your add. I think it should fetch that. The only thing I see when I look at the pics though is the blue carpet. For some reason it makes the boat look even older. I see you are in Athens. Do you work for UG? My brother works there.

i have a friend with this boat, and it doeasnt matter how we sac it out, we cant get this boat to perform to our standards. have you achieved a really good wake out of it?

I think you should definitely be able to get that for it

Paul The guy I got it from put the blue carpet in I agree with you there. not my color of choice.
Kevin I do not know what "your standards" are but I have never added any extra weight and it has always been fine. What about the wake do not like the shape or the size? Because I have heard nothing but good things about the older sunsports and Saltares'

Paul... I dont work at UGA but will hopefully be attending in a few more semesters. UGA is awesome grown up here its in my blood

Sorry, I didn't see your age when I asked. My brother loved it. He is now moving back to KC though.

It you can do it cheap, I would think about putting in some different carpet. I think that would really help the look of the boat. I would probably wait a month or so though.

Yeah I see what ya mean. Thanks for the tip

behind my friends it is basically non existent. really mellow without any lip. i think the lake of lip was the biggest issue. when we finally would get a steeper wake with a lip it would be way too close to the boat for our taste. we finally got to the point with sooooo much weight that the boat wouldnt get on plane and thats with the 454!

yeah for real when I first got my 91 Supra I rode without ballast for about a month and could still get plenty of air at 65-70 feet

thats crazy cus weve tried everything and we know all the proper ways to sac out a boat. maybe im just used to a loaded 2001 with a lot of kick

Be patient, at that price I can't see it not selling pretty soon. The more the economy goes to the •••••••• the more likely someone will be value conscious.

Thats true

If I didn't have my 99 Launch I would buy it right now. As a matter of fact, I have been tempted to sell my boat, free up some cash, and buy your boat. It's a good boat at a good price. Hang in there, I am sure it will sell soon.

Thanks for the comments. Its def reassuring. Is your launch a v drive.
