I purchased this 1980 Ski Nautique locally in Brisbane Australia. She has the standard 351PCM with velvet drive. I have since added a 7’ high pole and bimini.

We only wakeboard and load her up with around 150Kg up front and 350Kg down the back. With only a couple of people on board she throws a clean wake just over the knee at 22Mph. We ride on a 70’ line and hit the wake just in front of the curl. Wake is nice and steep and wide enough to land on the down ramp unless you really cut hard.

I am looking forward to many happy days on the water whether it be wakeboarding, towing my neices & nephews in a tube or just cruising up the river.

These boats are awesome - it’s a pity there are not more available in Australia as I know plenty of guys who’d love to own one. Lucky for me I found mine :-)
