Many pwc enthusiasts were wondering whether it is possible to fit an Ultra 250X engine on a 15F hull. The answer came straight from the R&D Department, of KMC, the people that designed the new Ultra engine. Therefore, the new engine is much bigger than the previous one and it has a different exhaust layout, so it is actually impossible to fit it in the narrow engine compartment of the 15F hull. Though, even if it was possible to fit the Ultra engine, the 15F hull utilizes a smaller pump, so it would have been a waste of horsepower. It will be easier to buy a new craft and get the advantages of the complete package rather than spending a lot of money to modify the original 15F hull.

Multi World and National champion Chris MacClugage was the only American rider who participated in the King’s Cup, a race that was held in Thailand and he flew there along with IJSBA president Scott Fraizer. MacClugage raced only in the Runabout Class, riding a Kawasaki STX-15F. He used a similar set up as the one that his team had prepared for the World Finals in Havasu, though according to Chris there was a little more work done to the cylinder head. MacClugage won three out of four motos and stepped onto the highest place of the podium for a second consecutive year.

According to a recent announcement of IJSBA carbon or lightweight aftermarket hulls will be allowed for usage in Open class. Therefore, multi time world and European champion Nicolas Rius has already an advantage this season for the World Finals. Rius Racing had developed a new carbon hull for the Super Jet that has already given Rius the European title. The engine that was used last year was very powerful and if this season it will be tune up to 850cc then Rius will be the one to beat in the Pro Ski class. After all being a spectator for one season was not that bad for him. This year he will not only be ahead of the competition but he will also be able to sell some of his well known hulls and get some profit out of it.

Originally the new Kawasaki X-2 was produced in order to fulfill the expectations and the demands of the Japanese market. Therefore, KMC had produced 500 units which were shipped in Japan and whoever wanted to buy one of those had to imported from Japan. Recently, Kawasaki France has announced that will have in stock the Kawasaki X-2, though the numbers of units and the price of this model have not been mentioned yet.

The Board of Municipality of Mourias recently sent to www.jetskyworld.gr the new calendar of the village which features photos of the jet skiers exploring Lake Ladonna last July. The exploration was organized by www.jetskiworld.gr and the Champions store (www.championsjetski.com) and were achieved by four couples who rode two skis and two runabouts. The organizers as well as the riders are looking forward to visit the Lake in the future and explore it once again, possibly by bringing along other riders too.
