Hi , i'm about to buy my first ski , i narrowed down my choices to two skis , both appear to be
in excellent condition with some normal wear , can someone tell me what are the difference s if any between the two , hul , engine etc ? , and which one should i go with ?

1. 2004 , 60 hours fresh water use only, comes with a very nice trailer - 4200$
or
2. 2006 160 hours lake use only also comes with a trailer ( not as nice as the other one ) - 4800$ , this one has about 10 months of warranty left also, dealer maintained .

I'd rather not spent the extra 600 if i have to but if the difference between the two is significant i'd rather shell it out and be done with it.

thanks

I don't think there was much change between the 04 and 06. Maybe a little better instrument panel?, but I'm not sure. Its almost a coin toss. I'd go for the 04 with the better trailer and fewer hours, because in my case I have to tow 45 minutes to the nearest lake. If you are near the water the trailer may not be an issue, but if you tow a lot the trailer will probably end up giving you more issues than the ski.
