I can't claim that these are in any order, more of a list as they come to mind than any sort of ranking.

1) '60's era CC Barracuda
2) '93-'97 Sport Nautique (for the look)
3) '98 up Sport Nautique (for the functionality)
4) Checkmate Enchanter I/O
5) Glastron-Carlson CV21 jet
6) Checkmate Convincor 251 or 270
7) Pantera 24 (or other 24x7 hull)
8) CC 70's era Ski Nautique
9) Thompson 16' lapstrake (grew up with one)
10) The boat I don't have yet

Those 92-92 Ski Nautiques are pretty awesome. Same with the 85-86 Nautiques the overall style and graphics. Fish Nautique is rare and cool. The Matercraft Prostar 190 is a really good boat.

The 60s era CC Barracuda are classics. The Glastron Carlson CV21 jet boat is a head turner. Checkmates a very good brand. My Dad has the Checkmate pulse 185. Pantera 24 is a wave crusher, I knew someone that use to own one. Thompson's had the cool looking wooden framed windshileds. Lol the boat I don't own yet.

What's with the 85/86 Nautiques? It's still the 2001 hull, right?

Yes the 85/86 is the 2001 hull. I like the graphics and the straight windshield on those boats. Plus on the front deck of the bow looks like a hood scoop.
