Johnt Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Guys I’ve been debating whether to sell my 06 SJ200 Koa or the 94 Centennial SB I think the Koa has to stay , especially as I have a Centennial 34 Jumbo to go as well( make a nice matched pair with the J200) Can anyone please advise the spec of the J200? The docs say J200 VS but what are the woods etc Thanks in advance John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
