If you get a newer one, go with a Q5. The new Q4's are only 18' with a 4 cylinder. Mine is one of the last years that the Q4 was 19.5' with a V6, which is technically a Q5 hull.

Yeah I noticed that the new q4's are rocking a 4 cylinder. I would probably get an older model, more bang for your buck. I want one just like your only red or yellow. Weare going to hold onto the jet boat for this summer and shop around in the fall.

We almost had a deal on one like mine but yellow, with 220HP EFI engine, wake tower, and 4 blade stainless prop but by the time we got all the pre-approval done for the loan it was sold. Guy said it literally sold that morning, I was pissed. I am happy with ours, but wish I had the higher HP EFI engine sometimes. I have never had an issue with the carb'd engine starting, even started on the 2nd key turn this summer after being in storage all winter.

i met a guy this morning at quicktrip with a newer q4 and we were talking about the 90hp. he said he loved it and it was more than enough to pull a skier or tube and he could hit the lake 3 or 4 times on one tank of gas. my boat now is 90hp and i think it is severely lacking esp. when i start pulling someone behind me.

Man I don't see how only 90hp could do it. My dad has something similar to Morgan's, but I can't remember what year. I know that it has the 4.3 Volvo Pinta motor though.

I really like my 190HP 4.3L GM engine, I can pull people out of the water with no problems at all. I could probably do what I do with less, but I wouldn't want to. I can play all weekend pulling wake boarders and tubers on a single tank. It sucks it down a little quicker when you are at WOT for extended periods, but that is to be expected.
