Only the length is the same, everything else is different, sorry they both use a Morse MV throttle, and a pair of Airguide Speedo's as common parts.

So I’ve been lied to.  My boat isn’t an American Skier.  Now I’m mad.  Anybody know anything about Ski Supremes?

I think Ron used to sell Ski Supreme also at one point in time. When he sees this again Im sure he will comment.

Who lied to you? Why were you under the assumption that it was an American Skier?

No one out right lied to me, but the guy I purchased the boat from said there is a web site for these boats (American Skier).  So when I got onto the site I assumed it was an American Skier.  I know that was dumb.  I really like the bride of ownership that everyone has and the info and help they get from one anther, especially Ron who has helped me.  But now that I realize it’s not an American Skier, I feel like an outsider.  I will just have to buy an American Skier.   The problem is this boat almost caused a divorce (lolo).  No, but I don’t think I could get away with buying anther one.

Every boat on here has probably come close to causing a divorce...  ;)  Your good!  A Ski Supreme isnt an AM Skier, but I dont care...  No need to think your not welcome here.  If you ski and you love inboard boats, well this group of guys are the best on the water.  And, I havent even met any of them yet!   :)  Welcome aboard!

I second that last post, I'm an inboard ski boat fan first. I love these style of boats, American Skier just happens to be my favorite. We all share things in common with these style of boats. Don't know how much you paid for your Ski Supreme but perhaps you can find an American Skier for the same price or less:) ?

Hang with us.  It will be fun.  Before I started the facebook page for American Skiers, I belonged to the Tige forum, primarily because they were using Marine Power at the time.

There is a CHERRY 88 Advance with 80 hours... YES 80 HOURS on EBay as we speak...  The original owner is selling it...  It looks brand new (hell, it IS brand new) and so does the trailer  :)

Phil...  I have no idea other than he must've had the wrong priorities  ;)   I just wish I had an extra $6-7 grand sittin' around - I love my boat, but damn... that thing is PERFECT!!!!
