1982 Ski Nautique 2001
Asking $8,000 (located in Fort Scott, KS, 1 hour south of Kansas City)
I have owned the boat since 2005 and am with a much sadness selling to get a larger boat.
When I bought the boat in 2005 it had a new interior and exterior stripe and decals. The boat is not perfect but very good shape for its age.
Here is a list of the things that I have done since I have gotten it.
In 2006 I replaced the stringers and floor. This is the biggest thing to look for in these boats. New stringers are a must. Most likely if they haven't been replaced they are rotten. It is a big expensive job.
Inn 2006 I also had the custom tower built. There was not anything aftermarket that I liked the looks of that would lay down flat. The tower when folded will lay below the windshield. It has been painted black since this picture.
In 2010 the transmission was gone through by a local transmission shop.
In 2010 while I was pulling the transmission out I had the dog house sitting on the floor of a garage for 1 night and a dog attacked it so it got reupholstered then and matches the seats perfectly.
In 2011 I put an acme 542 prop on the boat and this was one of the best things you can do to these boats. It will come out of the hole with a lot of weight and hold speed much easier than with the old prop.
In 2011 I replaced the fuel pump.
In 2014 I had a new custom cover made for the boat. It will fit the boat with the tower up or down. It was around $700.
In 2015 the boat got a new starter and steering cable.
I have not done anything to the motor other than change the oil and winterize every year. It runs strong.
The hour meter has not worked since I bought the boat so I do not know how many hours the boat has but I would guess that over the past 10 years I have put approximately 250 hours on it.
If you are interested or have questions please contact me at jon.eden@gmail.com I have love this boat. I get tons of compliments on it and really do hate to sell it. It is great for wakeboarding and skiing. It is currently winterized but if you are ready to buy I can unwinterize the boat for you to test drive and would even rewinterize the boat for you.
