Nautique Owners Association

[NautiqueJeff]

I was wondering how many of us have been members of the NOA in the past, and whether or not you would join again if Correct Craft decides to bring it back. Also, what would you like to see from the NOA if it is brought back?

[surroundsound64]

I'd join again.... as far as things I'd like to see... I thing more reunions would be cool. Either more frequently, or in more locations. I know the logistics of it don't make it very easy, but you asked. hehe.

They removed it from the web site when they updated it. It was supposed to get off the ground again 2 years ago. The word I got from Orlando was nobody wanted to be bothered runnung it. Too bad. I think the response would be great. Regards!! Mike

[NautiqueJeff]

Wow, they must have just removed that at some point today. It was there yesterday, and I'm pretty sure I saw it this morning.

Coming over from MC, I am very surprised that CC does not have an association. I pay around $25 per year to be part of Team MC and I love it. I get a quarterly newletter and t- shirts every year. The bigger deal is that you feel more connected with MC ... my opinion. It is interesting looking at both companies ... I think CC has a better product right now but really gets smoked in the mar/com departments. Just one mans humble opinion.

I'd settle for a better selection of Nautique gear. This site does a great job of keeping us informed, and after seeing the number of hits it got during the 220 release, CC knows it too. (Still cannot believe Jeff and Luke (I hope that's correct) aren't hooked up with new promo boats every year!!!!) Anyway, I really don't need to throw $25 at a newsletter, sticker and a tee-shirt. Events, as mentioned above would go a lot farther.

[SNMike]

Nope, I don't see it Jeff. It was under the owners ramp section, gone.

I wouldn't be surprised if it were to be brought back and see Jeff and Luke running it...

[SNMike]

That would be great! Mike :grin:

[NautiqueJeff]

No, nothing like that is in the works, at least not that I'm aware of.

I agree, Jeff and Luke deserve a new promo boat at least every other year for their efforts and commitment to this site. I don't post here much but have learned alot and have been kept up to date on new stuff from CC by watching this site.

I would be very interested in joining. This is our 1st year as Nautique owner and we just love it. Even the reunion, I thought was a lot of fun.

What I would like to see if I was a NOA member ? Would love to have an annual special gathering of NOA members, and do a Factory Tour of the Plant in Orlando. Meet some of the Top execs of the CC family. Have the opportunity to see the "Whats New" in the product line up.

I dont know, these are just some of the ideas I can think of. But definitely, bringing up the NOA again is a great idea.

Definately! That'd be awesome!

At the CC reunion, at least in San Antonio (those are the only ones I've ever been to) some of the, or, a lot of the execs and family do show up.

I would definitely join. More and better QUALITY gear is important. CC is known for quality, but the gear is not too good. I would love to see this sight be brought into the NOA - I think direct input from CC would help the site and that Jeff and Luke will do a better job on this side of the business. Let CC work on the boats and J&L run all website promotional type activities. Give the guys boats, cash for the site, and unlimited access to resource material/namesake. There si no better promotional tool than this site and it's 2000 satisfied members/owners.

NOA could be included as one leg of this community. Let's start our own. Use haul numbers as verification of ownership, collect dues, use info from this site as a news letter, gets separate gear made and accessed through a port hole at this site for owners only. Then we can determine how the thing is operated and how much effort is actually directed towards the organization. It would save CC resources and all they would have to do is sponser the organization.

I'm in - where do I send my dues?

I think its unacceptable that CC has no sort of owners association. We were enrolled in a VW one when we bought a Jetta a few years back. I think that if VW can do it, CC would definitely be able to keep one going with all the loyalty year after year from owners. It just blows my mind that they don't see what a huge opportunity they are missing out on.

Also, there is not NEARLY a big enough selection of gear. I'd probably spend 2 or 3 hundred a year on towels, mugs, license plate frames, decals, etc.....but even the CC dealers I've been to seem to have a very limited selection. What a shame that a potentially huge market has to depend on Ebay instead of the factory!
