To all 2000 - 2002 model year Flame owners here -- I'm interested in your impressions. Likes and dislikes.
500EFI's good motors for this craft?

Thanks in advance.

A couple on this board. A friend has a 2000 and like it. Runs upper 80's with stock 500's. He had vapor lock issues with his and added the mechanical pumps like the later 2002 and up. Personally I think you catch too much wind in the face but I drive a Formula so what do I know!!!

I have owned two 35's and have a third on order for pick up this coming Tuesday. In my opinion, you can not find a better looking, better performing, better value period.

I had a 2000 with 500's GPS 88, 2004 with 525's GPS 91 and have a 2007 with 525's coming.

Should you have any questions please feel free to contact me directly.

2001 with a pair of 575SCi's.

5 years, 430 hours, and in excellent condition.
Has withstood nearly 10 poker runs, over 4
Catalina ski races, and held up excellently.

No hull issues.

If I had a gripe, it would be things like cabin
doors and head locker doors, hinges and latches,
leave a little to be desired, but are easy enough
to upgrade.

All the important stuff has held up superbly.

Oh yea, it's the second 35 we've owned too.
