When you replace the bowl and metering block gaskets(assuming its a holley?), use the blue gaskets. They are supposed to be reusable, but they just seal better. Imo

If you go to silver wood be careful you don't have a drip of water in your boat or you will fail inspection. I will be at Elsinore Sunday if you decide to go out there we will be hangin out

Welcome and awesome float
I just purchased my first jet last month
Went to silver wood last 2 Sundays conditions were good. Gets windy in the late afternoon but still didn't stop us from floating all day
20$ to get in boat must be dry it is easier to get a reservation on reserve America.
I'll be out there next Sunday again

Yep, fairly rare. I've only seen 3 21's for sale this year and that's counting yours.
Rogers in general dont come up for sale to often.
I'm the one who gave you the model on the previous page.
Good solid boats and the 21 is what Roger had as his personal boat.
