1990 Platform Brackets

Is there anything special about brackets for 1990 ski nautique? I see in ccf store there are brackets for up to 1989 then after that they are different?
I bought a used 1990 ski nautique that had platform and brackets stolen. The platform in ccf seems reasonably priced but I would still need to find brackets. Would the 1989 pair work?

To answer the question, NO...the 89 brackets would not work. Unless you wanted to do some custom work :)

That is highly doubtful. The rise and swing angles of the brackets are usually pretty different from model to model. I would not think that a 80 SN and a 90 SN would match. Get the angle just slightly off (just by a degree or 2) and the brackets will either not match your platform (they'll be toed in or out too much) or the platform itself will be angled incorrectly in the water.

I would call Alloy Marine and speak with them directly.

Don't think a dealer will be much help. Do like TRBenj said and call Alloy Marine 800-892-1770. Just because the bracket on the boat looks like yours does not mean the bracket portion screwed to the platform is the same. As Tim said the vertical and horizontal angles of the bracket are different for different hulls. Alloy will probably have the specs for the bracket for your hull. If not, they will send you a form showing how to measure to fit your boat, that you fill out and send back. Also Billy/Karen at MyCorrectCraftParts.com (advertiser on this site...phone is better) can help you, I believe they are still a vendor for Alloy Marine.

Marty Mabe is the decal dude around here for the larger type decals and chrome ones for the trailer. Pauly Banana has allot of the smaller warning type decals, special decals and the ski nautique decal on the trailers as well. Check with both those guys and they'll hook you up.

Err, hopefully your reading comprehension skills are a little better!

In case it wasnt perfectly clear, Alloy Marine is the manufacturer of the brackets. They will have a full list of all the boats with the correct rise and swing angles. By buying direct you'll save a bunch of money as well.
