I bought this boat in April of 2002 from a local CC dealer. I have always wanted an inboard ski boat since I have been into watersports. I started to waterski around 7 years old, and always had an OB boat in the family. We would watch the Kawhamot Ski show every summer in Tomahawk, WI where my cabin is. Nautiques were always my favorite boats, so when I could afford one, I bought mine.
When I got the boat, I expected to put in a new interior, but found out later that the floors were soft in a couple of places. Luckily my friends were upholsterers, and had experience in putting new floors and interiors in boats.
What you see in the picture is a culmination of 250+ man hours in the interior of the boat. I added an Acme 208 4 blade prop the summer of 2002.
After a couple of years, I had some engine issues, and put on GT40P heads, and Edelbrock performer intake. I’m assuming the hp went from the stock 240 hp to around 300 hp with that top end upgrade.
