Wanted: ski nautique 206 in great shape!

[NCH2oSki]

Looking for a NICE well cared for Ski or Air Nautique 206, would like to have a factory or similar tower, Bimini, located in the south east, but would travel for the right boat. Budget of upper 20's but that's not in stone.

I've searched the usual: Craigslist, the Planet, CC fan, onlyinboards, ski it again, boat trader... am I missing any?

My alternative is a MC ps 197, and I've found one in nice shape at a reasonable price, with lots of bells and whistles, but I really dont want to change brands...so help me out!!!

Man, I just did a little searching and 206s are really hard to come by at the moment. Give Eric at Lauderdale Lakes Marine a call. 815-788-1111. They don't have any listed, but he is a good person to have assisting you in a search like this. You can also send him a PM here. His screen name is "Erkoehler."

I'll keep you in mind. I'm threatening to move my family international for a year or so. If I do, I'll give you first dibs.

As much as I love it, I'd probably sell it if I went on a year vacation.

I noticed this one a while back. I think they've had it since the fall at least. It's listed at 39, but who knows what the firm price would be. Maybe they'd negotiate.

Forgot to mention that I need a single axle trailer, to much moving around in the driveway for a tandem. Thanks for the suggestions.

Leaving in the morning to pick up our new to us ski nautique 206. Its a 2005 with 195 hours, garage kept on a magnum single axle trailer with folding tongue, 330 hp excalibur, se edition, tournament love seat, bow filler cushion, nice stereo. Owner seems to be as meticulous as I am, so it should be a great boat. I'll post up a few pics after she arrives at her new home, wish me luck on our drive out and back to get her.

Can't wait to see the pictures. My brother has the 2004 version of the same boat. Very nice!!!

that's a weird color combo

That stripe is a strange color...although it may be the pictures.

Got home late last night from Texas with her in tow. I'm not sure what I was thinking when I said.... it wont be that bad...think of it as an adventure. Here is a couple of bad cell phone pictures I snapped . I have a few projects to do on her, first and foremost a thorough cleaning and getting familiar with it, next is Stargazer. Any suggestions for better pricing than skier to skier?

I'm not familiar with the Magnum brand of trailer, but it towed well, and seems to function well, Its' odd after having a wishbone trailer for 10 years to move to a standard bunk trailer on a ski nautique. The bow stop rollers seem like I've gone back in trailer time, I'll reserve judgement till I have some more ramp time. I do like the fact that it's not as wide as the ramlin.

I'm really looking forward to my first ski sets this weekend! I was really impressed and surprised at how much different it handled than my old sport nautique...night and day. I'm back in a real ski boat!
