      1 Steering Cable

      1 Fuel Guage

      1 Upholstery panel (backing was cracked when I bought the boat)

      1 Transom Remote cover (no one knows how it got cracked...!)

      4 WakeDesign Board Rack Bugees (Their rubber is JUNK!- black marks on boards, hands - everything.). I've since thrown the WD Bungees out and customized the racks w/elastic bungees similar to my after-market Monster Tower Racks (sweet racks). No more black marks!

        Got any info on this, I have the same problem, my board has black marks all over it now.

          I forgot about my swivel racks breaking (tige fixed them) and my bungies do the same thing. Boat will get a new set when I take it in for some work.

            I agree the wakedesign bungees are crap! Black gets on everything and they crack so bad your afraid to use them! Saw Malibus new setup on thier boats at the show yesterday, no rubber at all that i saw! Sweet setup.

              E, I'll take some pics of my mod to the WD Racks and post w/in the next day or two. I'm really surprised to see that they are still using those WD Racks/Bungees on '07 boats! Weak!

                I bought my 1997 Tige' in 2000, 6 months after I got it I found out that the previous owner did not cover the boat and left it out in the sun most of the time. The boat currently has about 1100 hours on it and it has 400 when I got it in 2000.

                Covers (2)
                Multiple batteries
                2 or 3 bilge pumps
                6 impellers
                6 fuel filters
                Impeller housing
                1 Prop
                Water pump pulley(old one was plastic)
                Distributor cap
                Fuel pump
                Starter (original went out after 9 years)
                throddle cable (original went out after 9 years)
                upholstery - completely redone 2 years ago
                tower
                stereo
                speakers
                carpet
                All gauges once
                Reset the windshield
                sending unit for TAPS
                If its not fun, Why do it?

                  Had a sensor or something replaced on the good old Gas Guage because it read full all the time until there was basically no fuel left.

                  Working on problem with the teak platform separating at the seam or as some guys call it delaminating. It has always been garaged and teak oiled every other time out.

                  Otherwise it has been a trouble free boat and we love it.

                    Take care on the Parker strip and don't venture to far north on Havi!

                    Ask Boat Cop where each prop monster is on the strip.

                        I was out on the 31st at Park Moabi. Dry Suit was nice and the water was the best of the year. 52 degrees. I pulled our Head Coaches Son and he only had on shorts and a vest.

                        I don't go out to Parker anymore so I don't need to worry about that. I know the gorge can be a bit harry at times. I went down to devil's elbow and back and and had a 2-3 foot readings on the depth meter.

                          what engine was this on......plastic pulley....wow....

                          I just replaced the complete water pump on my 97. Pulley was metal though, so it was reused.

                          same here, what model did you use to purchase or where did you purchase from? When it went bad, what went....teeth, solenoid?

                          What happened there? Mine seems fine.

                          How much did that run you? I am looking at replacing mine next summer.

                          Did you go with the VDOs again? I just replaced all of mine with the Faria Chesapeake White SS trim, including the TAPS gauge for an 02 model.

                          Where is that? the set of relays under the dash. I don't have a sending unit. Just a set of relays to send the signal to the pump.

                            How do you get way with running in 3 feet of water!

                              One of my relatives owns his own private lake and is a waterskiier and the deepest part of his lake is 6 feet. You can stand in 65% of the lake. But then again its only 16 acres.
