Skools is gonna be all over you when he sees that. He loves those older standup jetski's. I don't know if some of the info was lost during the migration to the new website format, but he did have pics and info posted a while back. You might want to do a search to see if you can find it.

I have gone through four stand-ups, they are a ton of fun and an incredible work out.... Sit downs get boring after a couple of 360 spins.

Good luck, she looks real nice, I would put another bilge in her with a manual switch mounted on the handle bars (one you have to press to run), if someone hasn't done so already.

First time I ever rode one was a standup, they're awesome. You know everything "retro" is the thing now.

I know Kawasaki and Yamaha still make stand-ups, because I always toy with the idea of buying one. About $6500 for Kawa, not sure about the Yama...

I got rid of ski number four about 8 years ago....and don't know when I would get the time to ride on now, my two daughters take up all my time....very good trade off.

This thing's gonna either get me back in shape or kill me. Swallowed a bunch of very muddy water yesterday. Hacking up stuff that tastes like mud today. I need to get it out of the 2 acre pond.
