21 SKIER JET BOATS * TAHITI

[Goodtime$]

7’ Bimini
Gauges are stock teleflex or Sierra silver analog

I prefer white faria but no one else does anymore

Crazy that the 21 skier seems to have more usable interior space than the 23xs.

Skier has a much larger cockpit and beam
Smaller bow
Wide and big swimstep is rad

230xs is deeper and narrower beam
Bow is longer
Cuddy is nice to have for lake boating

Hey I know it would be a PITA but it would be cool to see a build thread from mold prep , taping, back taping, gel and layup to finished hull.... Lots of motor heads and people that are just into knowledge.

I understand the process but would be cool to watch.

 

[Goodtime$]

Yes sir will do

@Goodtime$ About how much does one of these weigh with a motor/jet on a trailer?

Not a lot
Prob 4500 lb range w trailer
I tow them with a v6 4Runner no problem
I’ll check the notes

These S pipes are pro to fit exhaust under swimstep - we do big gator step for jets

The raptor motors were hard
The LS motors are smaller and fit easily

This is LSA 540hp / other skier is getting an LT4 640hp

 

[Goodtime$]

Finishing up two blue pumps
LSA on white boat w Cnc pump
LT4 coming for blue boat w blue pump

Miss seeing posts here

Yes I like seeing cool under 100K boats being built! The big cats are cool but most can't afford.

For sure…

This was the best sub forum on rdp pre-Covid.

I used to love seeing some of the boats on the water and remembering their build threads.

More please! Did you ever get top speed numbers for the lsx with a bravo?

@Goodtime$ i see that most of your 21 jets don't have rudders and also have droops. Any performance gains without a rudder and with a droop? Ive got an aftershock 21 skier with a whipple'd LS with a rudder and no droop, no ride plate. Wondering if there's some performance to be had with getting ride of the rudder and adding a droop
