I met a guy who had a 70s SN. He said he was on here and I just wanted to say your boat was sick. I can't wait to get my upholstery done like yours. For all of the rest of CCF, here are a couple of pictures I took of Powell. The lake was massive. How good is the mileage on your SN2001? I used a ton of fuel sitting at about 3k going 30 mph.     ------------- 2002 Chevrolet Silverado Z71 33 x 12.50s, BBK, Cranked 2000 Camaro SS Cam, Slicks, Boltons, Stall 1985 Ski Nautique MT1, Board Rack, ACME 542 Future:Stereo, Wrap, Girls |

I was just a Powell from 7/18 - 7/22 - too much lake and not enough time. Stayed in Last Chance and got to see Rainbow bridge and West canyon. Saw a handful of Nautiques and had a great time. Took my first wave over the bow - was watching some guys wake surf and by the time I looked up it was to late and their wave drenched us. LOL ------------- 1991 SN pulled by a 2010 Tundra |

Post some pictures. I want to see if I saw your boat. I wanted to go to Rainbow Bridge, but I was concerned I was going to run out of fuel since I was staying at a camping ground in Wahweep. ------------- 2002 Chevrolet Silverado Z71 33 x 12.50s, BBK, Cranked 2000 Camaro SS Cam, Slicks, Boltons, Stall 1985 Ski Nautique MT1, Board Rack, ACME 542 Future:Stereo, Wrap, Girls |

Lake Powell is a magical place. We usually tow the nautique behind a house boat and use a pump to transfer gas out of house boat tank. IMHO: House boat is the way to go, because you can get away from the marina traffic. N2Deep: A lot of ski boats get swamped in the narrows. |

Yeah on the way home the narrow channel was crazy busy and super rough - had to be super careful going through and didn't take any waves but it was nerve racking. We were with a houseboat and we actually took a bigger 24ft boat up to Rainbow. I will try and get some pics up soon ' ------------- 1991 SN pulled by a 2010 Tundra |

Cool photos, they came out great. Where was that sandy slide at? Also, where did you have your boat tied to that dock?

The sand hill is right across from Wahweap in Ice cream canyon. And the pic of the red nautique (not mine) was at the Rainbow Bridge dock. ------------- 1991 SN pulled by a 2010 Tundra |
