Have you seen that 1970 Air Nautique on ebay for sale? It even has one of those rare jet drives in it. Somebody out west needs to pick that up!

Nates, I totally agree with you. And he's had it out over 30 times and still thinks it's a jet.

A 7' high pole? I would imagine you could just about turn that boat when you pull hard out on the flats. I had a 6' Flight Pipe on my 80' and if you cut hard out wide the boat would list pretty hard.

"The top of the pylon sits about 7 and a half feet above the water. There is just over 60 hours on the freshly rebuilt motor and brand new jet drive I wish I could keep the boat for the rest of my life but i just got married and I don't have room."
"To clarify, when posting this add, I was mistaken with another baot and put in 'jet drive' in the engine type but obviously it is not. Thank you for looking and bidding!" ____________ OOOPS! I guess he mentioned the jet drive thing in the write up to, as well as in the engine type box. Must have got that confused with his other boat too. |

He corrected or added to his ebay listing. Here's the reply i got:
"Yep my mistake, I will fix the wording as I mistook it for another boat I have". |

I feel sorry for him . I guess that he doesnt have any room for the boat after he got married because ,when his new wife sits around the house, she SITS AARROOUUNNDD the house.
Im thinking that if I have to sell my Corect Craft when I get married I just wont get married . Obviously his prioritys are mixed up. PAT |

Priorities way outta line indeed. Young guys listen up. I married my wife so I could get ANOTHER Correct Craft. A true DINK (not counting the dogs) family. She hears an inboard coming down the lake and makes everyone shut up to listen. OK, that's pushing it, but she can sure pick one out.
