I am looking at finding an origional 1972 AM / FM push button radio. I want to make sure exactly what a 1972 looks like.

Wow that is a beauty. Is it for sale? I am doing a complete back to factory on a 72 and need one just like that. If so How much $$ are we talking about?

There is one on Ebay right now.
Be aware they demand high dollar.

Yeah I have seen all those on e-bay they all have some little problem I don't want~!
Hutch:I see you have a TS6M how is the wood in your boat. All the pre 1996 Supra boats around here are history due to bad wood rot and stringer issues. Man their new boats are SWEET. I build waterski boots for Kris LaPoint and am getting ready to do some other pro skiers feet in Feb. I take an exact mold of the foot and build a carbon fiber boot to use with the Ski-Technic release. I live on the Lake of the Ozarks and my cove is ski capital of the midwest, but they won't let us put the slalom course up any more due to heavy boat traffic on most weekends. It is GLASS right now~! Could not ask for better barefoot water. I guess the Canadians would be right at home in the 40 degree water but you won't catch me in it.

The stringers are good in my boat.
My boat only has about 300 hrs. Since I purchased it new in 1988.
I met Kris Lapoint and my stepson took a few lessons from him.
My best description of him would be the Gentle Giant.
He is a quite guy but you can tell he is always thinking.

I am a member of the Metropolex Ski Club and we do an event every year on Jan. 1 called Polar Bear ski.
A lot of the folks wear dry suits and such but some ski as normal.
IT is just some fun skiing to break up the winter.

Get you a dry suit and go for it.
Best skiing down here is the Brazos River there are two locations that are known around the world. One is in Tin top Texas and the other is just south of Rio vista Texas. The river has three hundred foot tall cliffs along the banks and even on a windy day you still have lots of glass.
A number of the nationally ranked barefooters train on the Brazos River.

Try a goggle search on either of these locations and I am sure you will find some interesting reading.

Have fun
