So I bought a used yamaha superjet last fall and wanted to redo the graphics to compliment my 2014 212x. So first of all...here's the inspiration photo.

Next here is the original graphics of the 2005 superjet along with some minor hull damage that needed to get fixed in the process.

Thanks to John at www.blowsion.com this is the finished project. Along with some killer graphics, he added a lot of bolt-on upgrades to the ski to make it kick-ass. Notice the snow camo tray mat to match the snow camo on the boat graphic.

@robert843 Is that your mod??
No they came from another thread on here but no one knew whos they where they were pulled from the ol web somewhere. The trailer mod was from someone who bought the boat used that is a member the original owner had added that. My skis weigh to much to do something like this to :(

Sorry Bobbie, I don't have the ski platform. :( It was sold off before I bought the boat. However, I probably have enough pictures that a fab shop could make one for your trailer. It doesn't look that complicated. The previous owner made some pretty detailed threads about it over at YJB too.

Ok, Thread hijack over... I can't wait to see some pics of that thing on the water!:D

I picked up a clean stock JS550SX last year. I have the parts to weld a hitch onto the trailer like shown above. Also working on building the rack onto the boat, was gonna build a practice rack with 3/4" conduit, cheap, easy to bend, and easy to weld. If I can get it to work I can get it remade in aluminum later.

If someone was to build and sell these racks, it may be a profitable business. Just an idea.
