Projects / Re: '85 Advantage
« on: September 11, 2018, 09:57:55 PM »
Cool boat. I think this is the only Advantage that I have seen with this hull. Any idea if Advantage still has the mold?
Roger pulled the mold back in the late 80's.
There's a few of these out there.

Welcome to SCJB. I'm just a little north of you in Valley Center.
Often wondered about Cibola, what's there for a launch ramp, fuel, etc.

Could be wrong, but it looks like a 18' Bonneville because of the small back seat and the radius at the back.
19' TR does not radius under as far as the 18' because of the drop chines.
Again could be completely wrong. Maybe just the way the pics make it look

Yep, I was wrong. Thanks for posting up the transom pics.

I am looking to build a flat bed hauler out of  it. Your trailer may be too nice to do that too ☺️

Anyone have an old, wore out , tandem axle boat trailer that you want to get rid of? Looking for one for a project of mine. Doesn't have to have papers either

Have an old Ellis trailer that I was saving for a future dolly project.
Not sure if I'll ever get around to it.
Good for a 18' v bottom.
What you got going Nick

Looks like a 60's style flatbottom jet. That was before hull ID numbers, so it's hard to say who the builder was.
As far as the boat tracking left and right. Looks like the pump is high off the bottom of the boat because of the flat bottom design of the hull.
This makes the thrust line high, which pushes the nose down. That hull has a deep entry nose, so it's tracking back and forth. Need to get the nose up.
How are the plates on the back set. If there flat with the bottom, raise them and see if that helps.
A wedge to change the angle of the nozzle will help push the back down and raise the bow.
A place diverter would do it also, but more expensive. Maybe a droop to lower the thrust line, but I would start with the least expensive changes first.
Have you checked to see how flat the bottom of the boat is? If it has a hook in it, that will push the nose down causing it to track.
Be careful, at speed if the nose catches it can spin out.

Keep in mind these are just my opinions.

The No Wake Zone / Re: What do you guys think of this Daycruiser?
« on: July 19, 2017, 08:02:06 AM »
Personally I'd keep looking.
The Olds / Jacuzzi combo alone would have me walking away and on top of that Fantasy was not known as a high quality boat.
In the future, the resale value isn't there. $4500.00 is a lot for that setup.
Just my opinion.

I believe no voids in the core plys.
I've used both and it's a much better product.

« on: March 15, 2017, 09:04:15 PM »
Ad says just like a Rogers, but Roger quit making that hull after a couple years. Designed a new, faster, and better handling bottom.
That boat without a motor is a $2000.00 boat. In reality you don't know if that motor is going to grenade the first time out.
Get a Rogers, not a boat with a Rogers sticker on it. For $8500.00 you can get a nice Hallett, Eliminator or many other top name boats that have a good resale value.

Tahiti's had a raised detail on the sides of the hull as I recall.
Also may be early enough not to have an ID stamped in the back.
