Sorry for the thread hi-jack, but Quinner, where did you get that sweet floor mat in your 206?

[Quinner]

Got them from WaterCraft Sales, ordered them with the boat.

Do some searching for "floor mat(s)" or "carpet runners", there was quite a bit of discussion about them and I posted the MFR's name / number, if you do not find drop me a PM and I can look it up for you.

There is actually 3 pieces, the main floor, at the walk thru and a mat for the driver as well, they are really great, carpet still looks new under them.

Thanks! I bought my boat at Watercraft too, so I'll give them a shout.

If Watercraft does not have them here's the info off the tag:

I drove and skied behind a 2005 LXi last year and the wake is nice on the LXi but thats were to good starts and stops. My 216 has a larger wake than the boats being discussed here but you can put your 67 in the trunk, you can ski with it you can pack in 10 people, the bow is very generous. There is compromise with the wake but the boat does so much. The BU was hard to drive in the course and agree with other comments on the driver view and the boat really lacked power out of the hole. I bought my boat last year and used to own a MC and I would never go back to nay of the other manufactures, there is no comparison.

Without knowing the engine, prop, and load it's totally unfair to compare holeshots and speed.

I agree. Our local LXi promo was just about as quick as my 196 promo. Both skied very well. Interior is where my strong preference goes to Nautique (even if my ski didn't fit the rear). The 200 interior is worlds better than both.

How many variations are out there from the factory? Like i said the BU had a great wake no question tought to beat, but I personally would never buy a boat just because it had a great wake there has to be more to it than that. Buy the boat that fits you and your needs, and buy quality.
