How can I find out how many Silver nautiques are still in existence. I recently acquired number 77 with 300 original hours.

I'd say that's a pretty tough question with really no way to get an answer.  I believe 82 were made, or somewhere around that number.  So, what does still in existence mean? Good shape and operational or in a field with a tree growing up out of it?  Dont really think there is any why to track what state they are all in today.  Some are show pieces, some work, some have been parked forever, some are rotting in a field and some may be in the landfill.  Fun question, but not sure how you would ever find out. Not that it means much as far as getting you to your answer, and not sure if you checked this out yourself, but there are 30 listed in the diaries, so there are at least that many, or were in the 18 years this site has been around, but that certainly doesnt account for all of them still out there.   All that being said, Congrats on picking one up.  One of my favorites.  Looked at one about 10 years ago, but passed.  Hope yours is in good shape or a readily easily doable project.  Pictures?

Congrats, I love these - there was one running around my lake for a week earlier this summer, but they must have been visiting because I didn't see it after that one week. Indeed, hard to say how many are still in running or fixable condition, but I suspect these survive at a higher rate than the average 2001. 
All boats are sinking, it's just a matter of how quickly.

I know there is one on Catfish Lake in Eagle River, WI. It's on a covered lift plus a cover on the boat, so it's hard to tell unless you get close. Not sure if it's used much, but I'm on a different lake.
