1998 Tigershark Watercraft
By: Arctic Cat

(Two Seaters)
Looking for a value-packed watercraft that doesn't skimp on performance? Then the economical new Tigershark TS 770 and TS 640 are great bets. This year, the look, the style, everything is new. On both boats, the deck has been redesigned to offer an improved riding position. Plus, an array of extras were added, like a new handlebar pad, a new seat for comfort, new sponsons, and more storage capacity than ever before. For performance, the TS 770 features a dependable 80-horsepower, 768cc twin-cylinder engine. And on the TS 640: a 62-horsepower, 639cc engine with a 38mm Mikuni carb. Now that's a lot of power for just a little money. So if you're a first-timer, or in search of an ideal second boat, go get an economical TS 770 or TS 640. And giddyup.

(Three Seaters)
From this day forward, every sunny day is family day. Introducing the totally new Tigershark TS 1000L, TS 770L and TS 640L. This year, these three-passenger boats feature our exclusive new deck design, a style so unique that it can't be seen on any other watercraft, anywhere. Plus, the newly redesigned hull on all TS-L boats allows them to carve and bank through the water with ease while maintaining Tigershark's trademark of a Dry Stable Ride. But we didn't stop there. The TS-Ls feature a large 16-gallon fuel tank and a new towing package that makes pulling skiers a breeze. And the TS-Ls boast a new reverse system, more storage capacity and manual trim. So if you're ready for quality family time, call off the sitter. There's plenty of room and power on these three-passenger boats for the whole family to enjoy.

TS 770R / TS 1000R

(Performance)
One look at the new Tigershark TS 1000 R and TS 770 R will make your mouth water and your palms sweat. And for good reason, too. Both machines are pumped with muscle. The TS 1000 R features a wave-burning 999cc engine with 40mm triple accelerator-pump carbs for instant acceleration. On the equally aggressive TS 770 R: a kick-em-in-the-pants 90-horsepower, 768cc twin-cylinder engine with twin 38mm accelerator-pump carbs. Both also feature our exclusive Multi-Angle Deadrise(tm) (M.A.D.) hull design for the ultimate in handling and cornering. Add a durable stainless steel stator, and these intimidating race-bred twins are ready to dominate the water. So stop salivating like a hungry dog. If it's true performance you're thirsting for, get a new TS 1000R or TS 770 R.
