    Anchors & Anchoring

    It's my fault. I never really locked the shackle pin. Just tightened it up 6 years ago and expected it to stay... lol! Not an effective strategy.

    Anchors & Anchoring

    Threw my danforth fluke anchor out last week in 35ft deep water to hold us in place while the kids played. Felt it drop to the bottom then... waited for the line to tighten up as the breeze pushed us... then waited... then waited some more... the line never tightened up... began to pull in the...

    The Boss Hoss is actually in stock now. We just recently recieved a shipment of 2021 surfers that included 2 of them. https://www.transomwatersports.com/product-page/2021-slingshot-boss-hoss The one we don't have is the Slingshot Mothership, which is the true longboard style board. Still no...

    What's likely happening is the bow riser on the trailer is shifting forward during your trip home causing the strapsto go slack. The risers are only bolted to the trailer and they will move. It's likely shifting back during launch and retrieval, then forward after all the braking on the drive...

    We took a much needed 3 day vacation we didn't have time for earlier this week to this beautiful little mountain reservoir in central Utah. I owe a fellow Yamaha owner from one of the Facebook groups credit for leaking the information on it to me. It's a little gem! I'm not sure I want anyone...

    Filmed at a secret location in the Utah Mountains. Look at it this way, either you bribe your kid $20 to introduce them to something fun they'll enjoy the rest of their lives ...or dad pays $20 for the experience of riding behind the boat with his kid. Hopefully both are true and it's a...

    1st Time Wake Surfing

    Looking good! Like you mentioned, some additional ballast will help. Both your wave and skill will improve each time. Looking forward to seeing the progress.

    Y.E.S. Warranty

    Talk to Impros. I'm no so sure they're a total loss. Glen may have the ability to refurbish them back to spec. https://impros.com/store/

    How about if it lifts up into hydrofoils...? No more hull dragging to slow it down.

    That's a cool coincidence. We keep Rev-A-Shelf in business! They have a pretty great product line and the quality is it's great too. We have a plethora in our own kitchen and use at least one of their products on nearly every job. The tap open Servo-Drive self-opening garbage can is one of our...

    The official "What did you do to your jet boat today" thread.

    I found this on my AR240 as well. The connection to the tray had come off.

    Cipa mirror owners beware

    Yes, there's a tension screw that can be adjusted. I adjusted it once a couple seasons ago, but I need to do it again. The wind has been enough to push it down when under way.
