Seen a Yamaha on the lake last summer and my wife fell in love with the swim platform. We had a 20' stern drive at the time which I was completely content with. Did everything we needed. Well, as wives have a way of doing, I now have a sx190 in the garage. I had a couple Tigersharks back in the day so I'm not completely unfamiliar with jets and am looking forward to getting this thing on the water. Anyways, we went with the 190 because getting it in the garage is paramount, I have one of "those" neighbors. Found this boat about an hour away and picked it up about a month ago. While we are patiently waiting for the weather to cooperate I have been doing all the mods in my signature. Just wanted to drop in and say hello and give a big thanks to all the knowledgeable contributors on this form. A lot of great info and write-ups here. More pics soon.
Welcome aboard @190ChriSX and congrats on he new boat. Your wife is right, the swim platform is a great place to hang out, prep for wakeboarding, etc. nice list of mods you've already done there. I'd advise that a perfect pass system can save a few "marital moments" if you plan on skiing or wakeboarding
Also, I think @Julian meant that your spare tire cover would look good with a JBer.net logo. I think the boat cover looks good.
@190ChriSX - That is the single biggest complaint we all have about this site....the mod lists cost us more than the savings we derive from fixing things ourselves! (but don't tell your wife that)
