1999 Air Nautique with 502 Python

[scarbs]

I am not trying to be obnoxious with all of these posts for other people's boats...just thought you might be interested. This Python Air Nautique was recently posted on correctcraftfan.

That's a nice boat.

experts: is that the same hull as the SN for that year?

Even though they had the TSC sticker on the deck they were not the same hull running surfaces as the Ski Nautiques. All that really happened was the chine cutouts were changed from the 1993-1997 Sport hull. This was to correct a handling problem at low speeds.

Is this even a good deal?

I am certainly no expert, but it seems that it is a very good price based upon other boats on this and other sites with that Python engine. Boats--and especially direct drives--with the 502 Python engine seem to come along quite infrequently, and I thought I read somewhere that the Python engine was an $8,000 add on NADA. But there are MANY others on this site who know A LOT more about it than I do.
