Regarding Hus Skis, I'm not very familiar with their unique features and restoration needs. However, some have shared information. When they do that, I'll post that information below by model. Hope it helps.

Jim D writes this about a resource for JLO Engines:
Bruce,
I want to share for all those Hus-ski lovers my greatest find.
A friend of mine was trying to rebuild a 200A as a surprise for his father.
The problem was that we couldn't find parts for the JLO L151/L152 engine.
By accident or dumb luck, I found a source in Greece for those parts. They are
responsive and ship the following day. Customs took 10 days but the
parts were as advertised.
I hope you can share this information because I know how difficult
getting those parts can be. Really, these people were so accommodating I
felt guilty asking questions.
