2009 Special Edition CorrectCraftFan.com 'Green' 196

With the support of Adirondack Marine and PCM, we are building a new 2009 CorrectCraftFan.com Special Edition Ski Nautique 196! Just like the site, this special edition boat will be a combination of the old and the new — incorporating some classic design elements with modern features you can only find in a 2009 Nautique. Below is actual photo documentation of the boat being built. All photos published with permission from Correct Craft, Inc. and courtesy of David Hendricks.
