I have always been a huge fan of 70’s Nautiques... with the salmon orange being the favorite! Got lucky when I answered a dealer’s ad and he said it was orange... yipee!
Engine runs great. Very solid boat ... stringers, hull, etc.. I am finishing up the new carpet now and will order some new skins soon. The gel was pretty oxidized but with high speed polishing, the color and shine is restoring beautifully. Some wet sanding (chine to stripe)is wearing my arms out... but results are worth the effort. Graphics will be repainted back to black.
The boat has all the original equipment including the swim platform and third speedo.
I own three others... but this is going to be my favorite pet!!! Can’t wait till spring.
