    I've got a 1998 Air for sale. Here's the listing. http://www.kijiji.ca/v-view-details....dId=1010680964

    The price is in Cdn $, so it would be ~ US $14,800. I'd be willing to move some on that. PM me if you'd like to discuss.

      I'm really looking for a V-Drive Super Sport for the extra area. I have a direct drive now, and it's too tight for the family.

        Not to hijack but noticed you're in lake villa. Our lake house is one town over in Lindenhurst. I'll keep an eye out for Ya on the boat.

          No hijacking at all mate! I'm in a Deep Lake Shores, and if all goes well on Saturday, I'll be the owner of a 1996 Super Sport. My 1988 Supra Mariah is too small in the middle with the doghouse and I also want a nautique hull for lots of reasons. We shall see...... Are you on a Sand Lake or Crooked Lake?

            Did your Saturday viewing turn out to be successful? If so, what'd you end up with?!

              Kyle, it did go well. Other than scraping the new boat trailer fender when getting gas on the way back, it went well. I bought the '96 SS from a lovely couple who didn't have time to ski with their three kids due to other activities taking over. They hope to live on a lake someday and get back to it, but storing a boat they didn't use was not something they wanted to do any longer.

              The experience took patience and with some help from Zach at N3 and Quinner who pretty much talked me into Nautiques single-handedly, I was able to inspect the boat from head to toe and make a fair offer and drove it home. It's at the Nautiqe dealer in Prarie a Grove, IL where Eric is going to be replacing the totally stuck steering cable, a new blower, and an complete detail inside and out. Oh...and the little light I crushed on the trailer fender.....

              I'm pretty excited to be the owner of an all glass boat with only 486 hours on it. The engine is VERY fresh. Now I have a 1988 a Supra Mariah to sell. My first boat. Cannot believe it.

                  Pictures never tell the story. It was faded, but stored inside winters. It's a great value. I should be able to dress it up and get a lot of use out of it!

                    Note to all....I'd recommend that if a seller says the boat is gone (which the seller did say to me earlier this week) don't let that discourage you from looking at it. I told the seller that if the deal fell through that I'd be the real buyer. It worked. It was 10F when I arrived to inspect the boat. Fortunately the seller had it in his oversized garage where we spent nearly 3 hours inspecting it and getting it running. There are many things on the checklist. Does PN have a boat buyers checklist? We should start one that is boat era specific. I'll refine mine if we agree it's worth doing and post it up.

                        So what else if anything is my boat called? Besides Super Sport, is it a 210, 216?

                            Yup Zach was on the phone when I was digging through the bowels of the NSS. He was instrumental as well in giving me the confidence to buy it! I'm excited. Lots of improvements as time allows.

                              Just bought a factory stereo from an 06 SANTE today. It's not new, but like the boat, cannot beat the price. Got the main CDM4 head unit and the Clarion 320W power amp for $100 from my SANTE neighbor who has 1600 W 12.1 sound system. Quinner has the record for the most noise complaints and has the most enemies on Deep Lake....something I suspect he might wear as a crown of sorts.
