Arctic Cat produced the Tigershark line of personal watercraft for model years 1993 through 1999. This unit is a 1992 model. Most sources do not acknowledge the 1992s and treat them as though they never existed. The vin number on this unit leads me to believe that this was the 6th 1992 Tigershark off the assembly line. I estimate that approximately 68 1992 models were produced. This one was originally retailed through Tousley Sport Center in MN. They look much like the 1993 model that was offered but with slight differences in...hood latches, throttle lever, ride plate, seat cover, tool tray, engine i.d. tag, nose cone construction, rub rail, hull liner, drain plug, etc.
