  1. @skierjp wish I would have known that was an option! @JackQ I appreciate the offer, but decided to order them through my dealer. Figured it would be best in case the new pucks show up not working or something of that nature. Then I can have them deal with returning them to ZO :)
  2. @eleeski I tried that this weekend too and nothing worked other then resetting the battery.
  3. I started having the same issue on our 2013 Malibu TXi this past weekend. Battery reset will bring back the signal. My diagnostic screen shows a code for no signal 1 & 2. So the only fix is $500.00 for two new pucks?
  4. I that is the best looking PS I have ever seen! Great looking boat and congrats!!

    @NickD that is great that you guys will be back on the water now! Beautiful looking SN196 too. Did you get a quote from Boaters Insurance Agency?
  6. I have never used it, or tried it to be honest. 175lb, B2 36mph into -28.
  7. This is why I deal with winters in MI. No spiders, snakes, gators, crocks, sharks, etc... :smiley:
  8. @Milford and @MISkier thanks for the quick responses. I figured SP could do it, just haven't asked yet.
  9. So I have been reading this from the start, but now I have a question as things sound like it may change. It sounds like a change will be able to be made to all systems? Just asking because I don't even have r revision installed. And if this is as good as everyone says then I want in on the goods and I am sure everyone else will too!
  10. White Lake, Michigan. Public lake, it can be interesting out there! Pictures taken from my friends drone during our inaugural teach people to ski/learn the course event with our lake association! http://i1032.photobucket.com/albums/a401/Ahop1188/DJI_0181.jpg http://i1032.photobucket.com/albums/a401/Ahop1188/DJI_0160.jpg http://i1032.photobucket.com/albums/a401/Ahop1188/DJI_0159.jpg
  11. I think either would be a good choice. I am currently on a Q45 and absolutely love it. 15-22 at 36mph right now and flirting with 6 ball at 22. I haven't skied a H2 but, the Q45 was a huge improvement for me over the A3 I had. The ski is extremely predictable and stable as mentioned through the entire course. Moves out from the wakes very nice and into the turn very good. It does have an arch turn, but can be turned very quick if needed. Holds edge very good and is as fast as anyone would need imo. So I guess what I am trying to say is that if you feel like you are slightly uncomfortable through the course then the Q45 might be the better choice because it will for sure add stability and confidence to your skiing. It won't punish you for making a mistake. But I also 100% agree with @TEL for demo'ing skis. Everyone is different so you may not feel the same about either ski as we do. I know that is tough when buying on SIA. Trying to find a skier or shop near by that has either ski would be very beneficial though.
  12. Sunrise at my parents cottage in Northern MI. Growing up it was always my dream to be able to have my own boat to take up there when visiting, dream came true a lot sooner then expected! No course, but miles of perfect free skiing in the morning http://i1032.photobucket.com/albums/a401/Ahop1188/IMG_5784.jpg
  13. Voted for the boat I own. Love my TXi and I feel so comfortable behind all other TXi's I have skied. All of the boats on the list are good though, each has their own "flavor", but all good. I can also think of a great local site, and driver that I would choose without hesitation.
