how many hours?

For a 92, that's a fair amount of hours, but if it's been taken care of you should have a lot of life left. I believe PCM rates the engines for around 2500 hours. Perhaps someone else has the exact rating. I had a neighbor who went to 4000 hours without a rebuild. BKH

That's the last year of wood in these boats. I'd make sure the floor and stringers are in good shape. That said, I don't think I've ever heard of a 90-92 SN needing new main stringers, ever. Based on some projects I've seen on this board over the past few years, as 81N said in another post, the engine is the "easy" part.

got pics?

apparently cant spell or type either-GREAT WEBSITE,you guys sure have alot of info

I own a cottage on The Eagle River Chain of Lakes( 28 lake chain)boating heaven,my chain is 9 lakes then a boat hoist lifts you over the road and connects to another 20 lakes)can lift almost all boats we also have 23' deck boat which we have taken over.

Oh, boy- some up north folks! We head up every year. The past few years we've been on the Minocqua chain since we have friends on the lake and there is a permenant course there. I'm always open to change lakes if someone wants to rent me their cabin!

Pete & 92cc,

I bought my 206 from Watercraft Sales on Three Lakes, beautiful area!

Hopefully we will see you guy's at The Green Lake Reunion this summer.

Take Care,

I spent all my summers in 3 lakes just as my kids do now. I worked at Watercraft rebuilding and refinishing customers wood boats for 4 summers and is really were I got my start into the wood boats. My 77 Tique is for daily sking since my wife feels that if she scratched ether of my wood boats that it would be grounds for divorse! My son has worked at Watercraft for 5 summers and will be going back. 3 lakes is great place. I can't wait for retirement so I can move up there permenantly. I have to get my shop built up there first so I can continue on my boat projects. The next one is a 1917 launch from Denby island in 3 lakes.

92cc, We are on the south end of Medicine lake. The Tique will be in the shore station if it's not pulling a skier. The 54 Atom and the 63 Dunphy sleep in the boathouse 6 docks east. It's been 30 years since I've been over the dam by boat. It was always lots of fun but with so much on the 3 lakes side, haven't found a need to go over lately. I'll have to someday just to see what has changed over the years. Lots more "slow no wakes" for sure!

Yak3, It's one of the few good sod runways still around. The bar close by was ether Billy's 3rd hole or Briggs. If it was good pizza then it would have been Billys. At least you went from the plane to the bar and not the other way around!(Ok if you weren't piloting though) Deer lake is right around the corner and where the Northeraire hotel used to be. They are putting in condos now. Yuck!!
