    Orlando, FLA (December 17, 2009) – Nautique’s newest model, the Ski Nautique 200, available in open or closed bow, is the proud recipient of Trailer Boats’ 2010 Excellence in Design award. Nautique is recognized for the company’s ingenious design elements throughout the Ski Nautique 200.

    Excerpts from Trailer Boats’ editorial feature on the Ski Nautique 200 include:

    “The effort put forth by the manufacturer makes the Ski Nautique 200 the perfect selection for our Editors’ Choice Excellence in Design award.”

    “Rather than having a trunk that skiers have to climb over to get to the swim platform, the builder developed twin saddlebags on each side of the ****pit’s stern area...the storage space offers more usable stern seating.”

    “Not only does the lowered instrumentation panel provide an improved range of vision for the driver, but it helps when accessing the controls.”

    “Everyone at Nautique is extremely excited to receive this prestigious award for the second year in a row. Our outstanding team has developed two all-new, innovative products in the last two years, and both have received the prestigious Excellence in Design award,” stated Correct Craft’s President/CEO Bill Yeargin. “While we are excited to win this award, we are even more excited about the enthusiastic customer response to our new product” Yeargin added.
