The baffle in my Centek fiberglass muffler broke and created back pressure. Fuel pressure was 39 psi at injectors. Boat ran great. Only issue was hole shot and pulling up a 200 lb skier. Small hose inside FCC holding the high pressure fuel pump is another weak link that can fail and cause a loss of power

We use Erickson adjustable PK50 clips at each end of a 1/4" bungee. One end to sub-buoy and the other end to Wally Buoys. Only source I've found for clips is Amazon. Search "Erickson 05296" Box of 100 is $40 shipped. http://www.amazon.com/Erickson-05296-Adjustable-Patented-Hook/dp/B005JCPT5U/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1429133100&sr=8-1-fkmr0&keywords=part+%2305296

My friend is using an Aqua Buddy to help his little one make deep water starts. http://www.ravesports.com/skis-boards/trainers/aqua-buddy-02368.html?gclid=CjgKEAjwtZucBRD77aiiq_v4xnASJABkAg8J_5NleNmcp0OAbkYaNBOGmOypZ-kPU2VxNAzrRxLbyfD_BwE

Tip for removing a difficult impeller. Instead of ripping impeller vanes off with needle nose pliers, use 2 paint can openers. Slip them in on either side of impeller and let the hooks grab the back of the impeller hub. Pull the impeller out. Tip for removing frozen nuts or bolts, use 50-50 mix of acetone and transmission fluid. Way better than WD-40 or PB Blaster.

If you have tried the above recommendations with no success. Inspect the fuel hose inside the FCC. The High Pressure Pump in the FCC is suspended on a 2.5" or so long hose. My fuel line had a crack in it and engine would hesitate at high rpm. Got progressively worse. The Low Pressure Pump has a screen filter inside that may be partially clogged.

Last year, Zach at N3 boatworks had some great deals on covers for TSC1 hull. Not full waterline or quality of Rankin but pretty good bang for the buck. Might see if he has any left. http://www.n3boatworks.com/

Everyone needs to put this in the context of their own lifestyle. What is your primary insurance? Do you need a secondary and so on. Talking about the medical coverage, USA-WS offers secondary medical coverage. It kicks in only after the Medical coverage from my Boater's Insurance is exhausted. The Boat-US basic boat policy includes $5,000 medical coverage (per person per incident). Family members receive $25,000 of medical coverage (per person per incident). See attachment. These limits can be raised for a small increase in premium. If you are injured skiing, don't forget about filing through your boat policy. I don't see a deductible on my policy and I am no expert. Check with your agent.

Do the 2 extra binding holes (near the front plunger) align with the HO EXO inserts?

The Radar Strada rope has nylon identification sleeves for rope sections from 15' off thru 41' off. The entire rope is the same color so the ID sleeves are useful. @Stickman The switch section is attached between the 41' off section and the main tow line. @dtm8119 I did not measure but it should have a nominal length of 55' not 60'. I believe the new Radar rope is now called Vapor, hence the closeout on Strada rope.
