Mine is a 1986 Sunsport skier also! The skier part of the name came off when I was rubbing it out! I started wet sanding with 400 and 600 grit paper. After that i switch to the wheel using 3M super cut rubbing compound and with finishing compound. I then of course waxed it! My pole is the same height as your it's just the angle. I have the original trailer and yours is looks to be "aftermarket". You sit up a lot higher with that trailer then i do! I looked at your pictures and mine is about the same height as the driver seat. The original trailers are very prone to rust. The put carpeted plywood on the steps and fenders. I spent a bunch of time re-doing mine! Also I will be adding my motor upgrades. Gt-40p heads intake and cam. Will posts the pics. Look forward to hearing from you more since we have the same boat!!
Those are great pics of your boat in your album. I want to know the details to make your hull shine like that. Mine needs that. Also, yours is a Sunsport and mine is a Sunsport Skier - both 1986. I see a difference in the side windows. And do you have some kind of extension on your ski pole or is it all one piece? Mine is not that tall. Clint
Great looking Sunsport. I didnt realize that the Sunsports were also made with the long windshield supports like on my Rider. Nice work on getting it looking new again.
I'm running a Crane Power Max cam with a 288 and 292 lift duration. I'm running roller rockers on the heads as well. I got all my parts from summit racing. everything is specifically for the boss gt40 motor... part# for the cam kit is crn-524422...
Thanks!! I appreciate the info on the rudder!!
