The wheels really set off everything. The triton elite comes with galvanized 12" rims. The polished 13" seen in the pictures is a $150 upgrade through triton. 12" polished wheels just like the ones above are also available but I think they're about a $200 upgrade because of the rating on the 12" tire.
Go to Triton Trailers and do a dealer search. You should be able to find one close to you.

9.5 hrs. so far. Riva stage 1 kit is going in this week. I recieved the prop from Dave at Impros on Friday but haven't installed it yet. As soon as I get my stock prop out, it's going straight to Dave for a repitch. Gonna do some same day testing on both the repitched Concord and repitched stock prop. Hopefully i'll have the stocker back from Dave by end of next week; i'm sending it out tomorrow.

i'll bet the stocker out performs the Solas. The results should be very interesting indeed.
What is your best GPS numbers thus far?

Last weekend I hit 69.9 and my dealer backed it up with a Stalker radar gun at 69.7. I didn't have my GPS with me this weekend but I noticed a loss in RPM's. With the 69.9 run, I was seeing 8050. This weekend the most I saw was 8000 but 95% of the time I was seeing 7900-7950. Also, there is some resitance at WOT when going straight. I have to turn the bars a little to the right to get the most out of it. OPAS maybe???

You should definitely check the steering nozzle and OPAS alignment before riding again. Either or both could be off. If it's the OPAS they could be less effective in a situation when you need to rely on them.

Man, OPAS can be downright dangerous. When going thru chop or a boat wake at speed one of the OPAS paddles can grab tossing you sideways. Happened to me twice before i removed my OPAS.
My dealer did some testing with the OPAS block offs and said he lost .5 mph on the top end. I don't really see how you could lose top end by removing the OPAS but he's been straight up with me about everythying else and I have no reason not to trust him. Even if it does cause a loss in top speed, it's worth the peace of mind knowing I won't get thrown off doing 72+.
How on earth will removing an item that causes drag make you lose top speed? If anything you will gain speed. Just some food for thought! You will also find that you will know more about your ski than most dealers just from reading the boards.
