    Removed old Hydro Turf from my 2005 SX 230. Hydro Turf was installed in 2008, when the carpet died out. Replaced with Black Tip matting that I have had in the garage for 6 years.

    Seniors

    I know this is an older post however - Pushing the 60 digits, I am out every chance I get. I do ski, wakeboard (have not tried wake surfing yet) but one day I will. Do NOT let the age number play a roll in the decision on getting a boat. Just my two cents.
