Input on PN

It definitely appears over at PN the thirfers are chasing all the real skiers away, just like out on the water!!

Ha!   I joined PN under a different user name. And you guys that were over there suggested that I come over here.

Been a member of PN & CCF for about 10 yrs now, both started out mostly the same and had similar members, posts and decent info. Last several years PN has definitely gone in a different direction, it appears a majority of the active members are all V-Drive G Boat owners and mostly surfers, posts are mostly related to "what color should I get", how to make a massive wake or stereo, lighting, bling related items, not necessarily a bad thing if that's your Gig. CCF has mostly remained the same, majority of active members are direct drive owners, skiers/footers/boarders and providing reliable feedback to almost any question. As far as reunions, there has been attempts on PN over the years however they just don't seem to take off for whatever reason?? CCF has had great success with reunions and I really think they are a big part of why this community has such a "family" feeling.
PN is a good site, the owner Jeff is a great guy and fit in perfectly at Reid's mini, he took anyone for a pull who wanted to go, including my daughter and Donald's daughter :) and he must be doing something right because he gets a brand new beautiful PN CC/Nautique boat just about every year!!

Pete, members have tried to get a gathering together several times but there never seems to be much interest. Nautiquehunter posts there quite a bit and even mentions when a few of us are gathering on Lanier. They just don't care as much about getting together as a group like we do.

I do kinda see why though....most 210's I would think drive the same year to year and the G's as well and plus they are tanks so why get together to surf each others boats. I don't imagine that a bunch of g's 230's, 210's gathered in the same place is gonna be all that much fun. True that is all about the people but in 95% of most cases, our boats belong to everyone at a mini , the keys are in it. Take it out for a spin if you want.

Jeff pops his head in here every so often and yes the PN G-23 is parked at Reids place. He has hung out with us and he and his family had a blast at The Norman Mini. He said the best part was riding in the Huricane. That did prompt him to try and have a PN gathering on Norman sometime this year...Seems to have some interest so I guess we'll see.

I know Jeff was at Reids mini last fall,sounded like he had a good time. The guys that were there should know more. I believe he lives on Lake Norman now

I think there are more "Nautiquers" than "CorrectCrafters" in general just because of the passage of time and therefore not as many "Correct Crafts" still in use. This site welcomes all without discrimination

I never really liked the planet nautique sites. No one there seems to "care or know" that there boat is not a Nautique but it's a CORRECT CRAFT. Nautique this nautique that. Yeah off topic a bit, but just my opinion. If you don't like we'll I guess I don't care. But on topic it doesn't seem like for the time I spent on there, no one is like a family like everyone is on this amazing site. But with reunions I don't know if they have any.
