Response to Here is the site...

 

I took the boat and rode it for about two hours. The boat started and ran fine in the no wake zones and at full throttle. I noticed that the boat idled about 900 RPMs when cold and not "cleaned out", and when warm it idled at about 1100 RPMs. I tested the charging at both 900 and 1100 and it was 14.44 volts which is good. When coming out of a no wake zone the boat does smoke some, and on the initial throttle up there is the standard cloud of smoke left on the lake. After the engine is warm it starts and runs clean. I bought the boat for 8500 and feel I got a hell of a deal, as the boat is honestly in new condition. After looking in the engine compartment I noticed a sticker on the front of the engine that tells you build date and idle speed. It seem that this boat will do fine, if I have problems then I will look at aftermarket charging systems. Someone else said that the hydro surge gate was a problem so I will address that soon. Thanks for all the info and help, I feel like it helped me to buy a solid jet boat.
