Hello Correct Craft Fans
Can anyone help me determine the horsepower of an original engine 1978 American Skier?
My lake is small and regulated. The length is good of this unit will comply. The title does not show the HP.
Thank you in advance.

Since there’s a hp limit, I’d go with the smallest power plant option for that boat which was I believe 195hp. Ford or Chevy flavored? Marinizer?

My 78 351W with a four barrel carb was a 240 HP engine but go with Orlando 76.
Say it is a 302 and 195HP.

American Skier Mark, think you had Ski Nautique? American Skiers I don’t think received the 351. Even in 1978 I’m not sure the 195hp 302 was still around but that should get him in.
