"Super Air Nautique" (the 220) Graphics

[skinautique]

they won't show you what it looks like because they have only seen a drawing of it and no actual pictures yet.

And who's faulit is that????? CC should put pictures of the new boat out so people will know what they are ordering.

This boat doesn't exist.......remember.......... Yellow_Flash_Colorz: Yellow_Flash_Colorz:

skinautique, what are you going to say if and when we see a page in the '06 Nautique catalog dedicated to this thing called an Air 220???

If the boat looks like the picture that I saw, we will not be impressed. It looks like a hybrid of the 226/210. Flat top w/226 windshield and 226 rounded rear. My wife an I held off buying an 05 model in hopes that the 220 would be a larger version of the 210 with it's clean lines.

Just talked to my friends at White Lake Marine and here is what they said.

"We will have a new 2006 220 Super Air at the Raleigh boat show. It will not be for sale, just display and for orders. It is the first production 220 and is being used by C.C. for promotion."


I will take a ton of pictures on Saturday and post them Saturday night.

Well... If the shoe fits, wear it...

[Daytomann]

Fine then...."Air Malibu" its. Way to Go CC! Now look what you've done!

I like it anyway. I REALLY like the Super Air Logo..I hope they use it.

Interesting...this is indeed what I have seen. I have since heard from another reliable source that the tower shown in the drawing is not the actual tower that will be used. Maybe this "drawing" release is to keep stirring the pot in the rumor mill until the final pictures release. If this is true....it has worked nicely. Don't start bashing CC b/c of this post. This is just a thought that crossed my mind after seeing skinautique's post. We'll see this new beast soon enough...and I'm sure she'll be dressed to impress.

I don't like the new logo. I think it copies BU and MC.

[patoloco]

This is what I don't get....the designers at CC are/should be extremely aware of the designs of competitors....but yet they didn't realize they were copying a competitor?

Yet, the very first thought out of all of us ameteur's mouths is "wow, they copied malibu"

I can only assume they are targeting the, apparently large, niche group of inboard buyers who want their boat to match their bicept and felt that malibu did not have the market cornered. :razz:

Ok..so I don't hate it that much, but it would have been nice to go with something new AND still CC-ish.

Remember CC - Your the "Clean lines, function over form" boat company.

[ag4ever]

I hate to say it, but graphics aside, I really like what 'bu is putting out. I just wish that CC could inovate instead of imitate.

The 211 is a great innovation. I just don't care for the curved rear deck.

The new graphic is imitation.

[skinautique]

Not impressed with the graphics either to be straight up honest. I give CC a lot of credit for what they do but they need to step up the "flashiness" factor. But I will always take function over flashiness. I do have to say that my 10 year old closed bow still looks awesome though. Saw the new MC's in person the other day. I like some of the styling but I wonder what is going to happen with resale and such down the road.

[Daytomann]

I believe in function and quality as well but I also believe in innovation and progression.
At first glance some of the things a few other leading boat companies are doing look kind of cool but it boarders on being too flashy and downright gimicky. Theres a fine line that these companies are walking.

Although I'm not as critical about the new logo as some of you, I would still rather see subtle changes in maybe some seating arrangements, improved towers, motor packages, hull design tweeks, etc than just a new logo or a flashy new, gimicky overall look (like some other brands).
