Yes....I used to have a '77 too. It is the same hull as the same era ski nautique, just a foot shorter and no swim platform.

1morepass, The answer is maybe. American Skier was a Correct Craft model. I'm not sure what years it was made, but I believe that 1977 was in fact one of its production years. American Skier was also a boat company, which began producing boats in 1976, and operated in various iterations until the late 1990s. The Advantage, a model by the American Skier Boat Company was very popular during the 1980s and was voted boat of the decade by at least 1 water ski magazine. American Skier Boat company went out of business in the late 1990s. Its assets were bought by Ben Favret, a waterskiing Champion in 2001, and he is attempting to resurrect the company as Elan Boats (www.elanboats.com). If you're unsure if the "American Skier" you are looking at is a Correct Craft, or an American Skier brand, just post a picture on this site, and I'm sure you'll get lots of folks to identify it for you.
