1980 Correct Craft Ski Nautique (1986 Graphics) Awesome Wakeboard Boat!!!!
This is a 1980 Ski Nautique that I have owned for the past 10 years. When I purchased the boat in 1996 it was on a lake about a mile from the Correct Craft Plant, where it had lived for most of it’s life. The boat has 846 hours on the meter, (I think it had around 680 hours when I bought it). Right after I purchased the boat, I had the transmission rebuilt and replaced the Holley carburetor. The boat performed flawlessly for the 3 years that I lived on a local lake. After I moved off the lake the boat was stored in a warehouse until last year. Over the last year the boat has gone through a complete restoration (see photos). We took the boat down to bare interior hull, replaced both stringers up to the battery box, re-glassed the hull, new foam, re-placed most of the floor boards, new carpet, re-placed the wood supports for all the seats and combing pads, new foam for the interior, complete new interior. I have never had an issue with the motor, it has always cranked first time every time; so the motor was not touched in the process. Additional things that were replaced during the process: starter, bilge pump, battery, blower motor/hoses, horn, fuel lines, tank flushed and cleaned, carburetor re-built, new exhaust hoses, one new exhaust riser, new exhaust “flappers”, the motor and transmission were sand blasted and re-painted, new decals and lots of other things. The boat has one water pressure speedometer (needs attention), one electric (not working). I rarely run the boat over 3,000 RPM so the speedo’s were never important to me. Flaws: The boats has some bubbling of the gel coat on the back half; on the “under side” of the hull; not visible when the boat is in the water. Various small nicks expected for a 26 year old hull. One of the “fins” has a kink in it (looks like somebody hit something years ago) ” The gel coat at the front keel has been replaced (caused by “beaching” the boat on the sand here in FL). The trailer needs fenders and painting. There is no bimini top; the holes from the old top were filled-in the restoration process; so the new owner can install the top of their choice.
This boat is Right and Ready to GO!!! You will not be disappointed in the boat.

I just purchased a new BMW 1159 GS motorcycle that I plan on doing some extensive traveling this summer. This boat needs to go to someone that will love it and use it this summer!!!
