The ABS just don't hold up... I have a set of original junk ones and the one on the boat now are pretty good shape, however one is starting crack at the hinge.... and I have all this cloth and resin left over...

I'd guess they are 30x18" - didn't you own a LS2000?

@84rzv500r I'm sure you'd sell a few - but not a massive market for them. (also your boat length is 19')

edited for accuracy - I wasn't really looking to sell them. I'm just looking to fix the issue with my boat. Maybe I'll just donate the molds the cause... I wouldn't get to it till summer or fall anyway. LST1200-D Book says 19' 6" length... I measure (not Laser CMM) 19' 9", 15" 6' (no swim platform) at the waterline and 21' 4" LOA that includes the swim platform... I had to read the standards, get out a level and some gaffer tape to revise those numbers.. So by the regs its 19' 9" long from a vertical line at the tip of the bow to a line vertical at the aft most point of the transom level between the two, slightly longer ~20' if I go a direct line, If I were to glass in the swim platform to the Hull it would then count as LOA, but Not LWL

Yamaha officially lists the boat as 19'....which is what I used to rent my slip for mine as they went by the foot! :)

Did you have an LX-210 or LS2000? My LX-210 was over 21' with the swim platform. You did well getting away with 19' on the slip rental!

Yup....I owned an LX-210 and yes, the marina wanted the official manufacturer's length from the bill of sale to charge for the boat - I suspect people were claiming their boats were shorter to be charged less! The swim platform doesn't count towards the official boat length - which is silly when its bolted on from the factory and no one would ever take it off (easily). Loved having that platform right at the water line!
