Pics of my former 92 Sport

   I owned a 92 Sport from 1996 - 2001. I was cleaning the basement and just found a few pictures. I lived in Minneapolis at the time and had my boat docked in Lake Minnetonka. The boat had a legendary wake (for the time) mainly due to my fat sack and 6 50-lb lead bars...

Last run of the year... note the date, Oct 24 1999.

Wow this really was a nice trailer!

I used to be able to fly when I was 40 lbs lighter!

Lake Minnetonka

	Nice looking boat! Something about the 1st gen Sport's I really like. Did you ever boat on Medicine Lake? We used to live in Mpls, and that was our home lake.

	No, never went to Medicine. It is quite a difference in dimensions looking back at the Sport hull vs my current 84 2001. Look at all that room up in the bow. I don't remember the rear being cramped but it looks like the extra 2 feet is mostly in the bow. I'm sure it has a wider beam too. When I bought this boat it had something like 72 hours on it. The owners had bought it new simply for cruising Lake George, they never skied behind it.

	Wow, that really is a pretty sick wake. Gotta ask, why'd you sell it?

	Chris - Yeah the Jeep looks tiny compared to the boat. I bought that new in 1995 and put about 130,000 miles on it. Towed the Sport from NY to Minneapolis and back, and also brought it to Virginia Beach/North Carolina one year. Brian - I sold the boat because at the time, I had moved back from MN to NY and was traveling about 48 weeks a year. I had a loan on it and couldn't see paying for it when I didn't use it. My wife and I got married a few months after we sold it and both knew we'd get another one at some point. I do wish I still had that Sport!

	My Liberty looks pretty small next to my Ski Nautique. I think you had an even bigger boat to tow vehicle ratio. I hear you, better to pass it along and let someone else enjoy it if you're not using it. I wound up parting with a motorcycle I really liked, but wasn't using to raise money for my boat. Every once in a while I get a little pang, but overall it was the right decision. Hey, there cold be another Sport in your future!
