    Barefooting

    Hi,

    I am new to Planet Nautique and want the all new Ski Nautique 200 CB. But I have heard the barefooting wake stinks! Is this true? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks,
    Eric

    Where did you hear that it "Stinks?" I have only barefooted behind three event boats, usually at 100', and this is similar to the others. I will say that top speed leaves a little to be desired. I have the 343 and it tops out at 42.5 mph so the slow hull is the biggest problem in my view. If you are hard core you will defiantly want to consider the bigger engine.

      Hi There,

      the wake isn't good for one foot slalom forwards, but backwards its doable. Biggest issue is speed. Most of the ones we have are running 40 -41 with std. prop and with a 15 pitch its about 42.5. So it depends on what type of footing. In the curl its perfect for toes, turns and tumbles. Backwards its just fine as well. The wake is easily crossed with a 90 +5' handle. Best thing to do is foot it for yourself. If you are a weekend guy that just steps, it will be great.

      If you have any questions, you can call or email.

      Regards,
