One of my neighbors stopped by today and we naturally started talking boats. He knows my Mustang and was asking if it had the horse emblem on it. I explained to him that because it was an SS they left it off the dash since that's where the glove box is. I then told him Cypress Gardens made ski's with the horse and Mustang logo and to keep an eye out for some when he hits the garage sales. With that he opens his trucks door and gives these to me. So now I'm on the search for new bindings,I really want to try them out. I'm also going to tell Cousin Don that d*ck Pope gave them to me and that the price of the boat just sky rocketed,I understand he must have used these ski's behind my boat when it was at Cypress Gardens

Not sure if you are on FB or not but if so, post on Vintage Water Skis and you should have no issue on sourcing the bindings

Gary,

I was born at night, but it was not last night. You can't believe everything you read on the internet.

At least since his retirement, he's gotten some color on his legs so we won't be blinded by the reflection!

He Skis?????


Gary, need I remind you that Cousin Donald has publically announced that he does not have room for two boats so that moves me up the list when you decide to sell the Mustang. Besides, I need another HM and I don't have a 60's boat so the SS Starr would look proper next to the 72. Oh, and another thing......those newly acquired skis would look nice in Kermit as well.

Due to the popularity of re purposing old skis over recent years, they have become harder to find. The attendant at our town dump is now selling the discarded ones!!
