I've had a few people ask me about the closed cooling system. Here is a picture.

A few questions:
1) Does the trailer manufacturer still exist? To bring it accross the US/Canada border requires a letter from the manufacturer stating that there are no safety recalls.
2) Are you rthe original owner?
3) Has any work been done on the stringers, transom or gas tank? If not, are you ok doing a survey on those specific items?

Here are some answers not in the same order:
2) I am not the original owner. I believe I am the third owner. I've had the boat for about 2 years.
1) The trailer manufacturer is Owens and Sons located in St. Petersberg FL. Their website is www.slideon.com The trailer manufacturer would have to be contacted to obtain that recall letter.
3) The gas tank was replaced before I purchased the boat. The floor was cut open to do the repair. Regarding any work on the stringers or transom I have not observed any. No problem with survey.

PM me if you want my phone number or send me yours and I can answer any more questions you may have.

:canada:Hello,Just to help you out if you buy from the USA, You dont need a recall letter for the trailer (just vehicles), just bring the trailer and boat to the border, bring a bill of sale:wink: pay the gst/pst:( and your accross! The trailer is over 15 years old so no RIV fees. Very easy, done it 3 times so far (2 Classics 2 Seadoos)
good luck!
