Easy to drive up on and slide off. You need to mount it over PVC pipes sunk into the bottom (mine are either 6 or 8" in diameter - whatever the size of the hole is on the float), so it slides up and down easily as the tide changes, otherwise it can mount to a floating dock or to a fixed dock if there's no tide, with a special bracket. The newer ones with the rollers are much more expensive than when I got mine, but once you get it, it's no maintenance except maybe once or twice a year you can scrape barnacles off the edge if you feel like it.
I don't know what kind of skis you have, but one good forum is http://www.seadooforum.com, they probably have info on this as well as on other skis - I haven't been there for a while but the forum is very helpful, just like here.
Thanks Marc, I actually became a member last night and got a few responses and all of them were positive. They basically said that those are top of the line.
I think I'm getting them for a good price $1500 the pair with 4 rollers and the owner said they are about 1 1/2 old, this includes the hardware and in very good conditions. They are on a lake right now and they will be in a lake again.

Thanks for your help.
