:confused:Looking for some info I need to get a trailer for this worthy piece.
Need to know what she weighs.
1968 (It's red)
Hull Number C1650 8
Volvo 280 outdrive/ (302 ford I'm pretty sure)
Alluminium tank
All the Hoolman and Moody stuff is there.
And I have all the parts lists, which I will upload later if anyone is interested.
and it's medical file :wink: What can anyone tell me about it????

congrats,

but it is not a sweet 16, a 1968 is a skisporter ;)
very solid package now you need to know the word SOLAS as we put one on our boat and it is a much more pleasant ride, if you are going salt call madpoodle about a trailer or if you are using it only in fresh look up performance trailers in lake george ny they make a great trailer

good luck with the new boat and welcome to the sickness

Your boat should weigh about 2500. Welcome to the board, there's a ton of info about your boat on this site, do a search, and I'm sure most of your questions will be answered.

Good Luck,

Rich

Your boat should weigh about 2500.

I thought the SkiSporters weighed 1500 lbs dry?

Did you want the weight of the boat with or without the motor and drive? Either way opinions vary. Try this for info.
