Interesting Craigs List finds

LOL, a 351 chevy motor in that 01 Sport.
Looks like a nice clean 01. I wonder what it goes for? If I wasn't buying a newer vehicle now, I would be looking at that boat.

I don't think the hull changes on the 98 sport were aimed at a better slalom wake. Here is the page in the reference section containing the info on hull changes.98 Sport Hull

This boat has come up before on here. We think the trailer is from a Fish Nautique.

The under water lights are mainly for the boat to look cool in the water. Some use them for swimming at night but they are mainly for looks. Like the neon lights on the bottom of cars in the mid 90s.

I went for a test drive in that boat 3 weeks ago. Ironically, my wife and I attended a funeral 15 miles from the boat.
The boat started right up when we put it in the water. One of the best sounding boats I've ever heard. As I backed it away from the trailer, I noticed that it was left hand rotation. The throttle is a shift by wire, which was strange, but cool. We picked up the owner from the dock, and headed out to the lake. An alarm sounded, telling us the engine was overheating. We were not able to run the boat through it's paces, and had to head back to the dock (as a storm hit). The owner called me the next day to tell me the RW impeller was shot.
The owner is the guy who owns Standard Boats. He said he took this boat in on trade. For someone who wants something special, I think this boat worth a look. The boat itself is a little rough. I didn't have time to look at under the carpet at the stringers. The engine looks like it was installed by someone who knew what they were doing. And the engine is freakin awesome. The digital display monitors all functions. There is a control pod to the right of the steering wheel for all the switches.
It did not come with a trailer. If it did, It might have been in Michigan by now.

Mate I tend to agree with you. TSC is also not listed as a feature for the Sport / air, where as it's the first feature mentioned on the Ski.

The v-drive SW/Freeport in MI for $2k is back, this time with pictures.

Someone told me the original Ski Nautique hull was based on a Higgins ski boat. Could this be the model it was based on???

Brian,
I think you're being a little harsh. Throwing an tower on an existing platform falls under the catagory of "designed for wakeboarding"

60 mph boat!!

Yeah and he's willing to trade for a nice 4x4, just not for "junk".

1996 Sport Nautique $10,500

looks like it might have a case of the blisters.
