Shpower. My best to your dad and a speedy recovery.

Thanks for the info. Were you skiing in the course or free skiing?

Surprised to hear the wake wasn't what was expected. What engine and prop were being used?

[WakeGirl]

Also, how many peeps in the boat? Did the boat have a tower on it?

[shpower]

Thanks all for the kind thoughts. My dad is resting (uncomfortably I'm told) in the hospital in Tampa where the rest of my family is from, but the prognosis looks good. I'm stuck in Chicago.

When I was skiing there were only 2 1/2 people on board. (my 10 year old being the half person). No tower on the boat. They said the engine was basically the same as the Monsoon in my '00 Slxi but they call it something else. I am told the prop was the standard 3 blade 13/12 (i think). We were free skiing in the morning and going to run the course in the afternoon, which of course never happened. I can still say that I have never missed a ball (and never made on either!).

I have only a few pics that are not that good, but can't seem to attach them. OK maybe I can attach them.

Would Malibu give CP a boat with just the LCR engine? I would think they would give him a boat with the same setup they would be certifying for next year's tourneys.

I don't think this one was intended for CP. I think it was just the first one in the state of MI.

who's that handsome guys funny shapen rear end in the picture?

Sorry to hear about your dad. Give us a call if you want that second pull

The RLXi is one of our stock inventory, chris will more than likely be getting a silver

And if you have any question whether the LCR is enough let me just tell you, it certainly is.

I didn't mean to imply that the LCR isn't still a strong enough motor. Just that I would expect all the promo 3-event boats to get Monsoons. Maybe I'm off the mark there. I've never talked to a promo guy at that detail before.

i understand. I guess i was just getting at that the new RLXi is quicker than the old one, and the 320 seemed PLENTY good enough. And now that the 340 costs so much more because of the catalyst's, IMHO it's not worth it on the performance side of things

Well what do you expect Zach? You told me to get your good side!

[sgtsandbagger]

Does anyone know the weight differences between the Titan III and the Illusion towers? For a RLXi or VTX it seems like the lighter the better.

[WakeGirl]

I don't know for sure, but the Illusion is pretty heavy when compared with the Titans that I've been around. I'd say that the difference is pretty significant.

[LSVSharks]

Ok is it just me or is the Response LXI engine cover very plain?? I am surprised that there is not any color on it.
