Next of Kin - The Nautique Bloodline

[bmh2208]

I just so happened to have the opportunity for another pretty cool pic of the Nautique heritage. Long time forum users might remember a pic a few years ago of when I had my '83 2001 and my (then new to me) 2003 SAN. It clearly showed why the old 2001 put up such a awesome wake, and how it had progressed to the legendary 210 hull.

Well, I am able to show this rare occurrence (for me at least) once again as I have my boat, the 210, and a 2008 230 (not mine, but am selling it for a friend) at my house. You can see from the pics, the similarities and differences and why, still, the 230 puts out a sick wake.

I wish I could keep the 230, as I really do think I have cheated on my 210 and fell in love.

Enjoy and Cheers!!!!..............And yes, I know my 210 looks like a$$. This summer she has been neglected as I have been super busy with other boats. She will get some TLC this winter though. Promise

Man that 230 is huge next to a 210!!!!!

Lol. And look at the 210 next to the 2001. Same thing

Exactly.


That simply reminds me why I am looking for an open bow sport or air. My 78 martinique on the SN hull is tiny inside for an 18' boat.

Horkn....I feel your pain. Before the '83, I had a '77 CC American Skier. You could literally fit it inside the 2001

Thanks for sharing that is a good comparison for us visual people. I never realized how deep the 80's 2001 hull was.
