Chicago Boat Show / CC get together

[rleinen79]

I went to the Chicago Boat Show at McCormick Place yesterday. Correct Craft had a new ski196, ski206, air210, sv211, 226, and 2 super air nautique 220s, as well as an old Atom Skiier. The 196 was raised about 8 feet up in the air so you could see underneath it, but otherwise it was a decent display. Malibu, Mastercraft, Moomba, Supra, and Ski Centurion had displays too. Looking at them all back to back just confirms what everyone here already knows. CC is the way to go!

By the way, did everyone see the thread in "Nautiques in your area" about the get together in Wisconsin in July? Hope to see lots of you there! I think it will be a great time

Great shots! Not too sure how I feel about the Sv211 and the 220 with the powcercoated towers and dash.

the 220 looks a lot better now with the customization. I drove that boat before and it didn't look as good. Nice job Greg if you are ever on here to read this stuff. It is nice to see the all white 211 though. I like it. I would probably leave the tower silver though.

Noticed in another thread that they did a "sports theme" boat - Bu did kinda the same here, having all of the Chicago teams colors represented.

looks cool for the show but good luck selling all of them. what is the deal with the hull on your last pic, gotwake?

[gotwake]

Bow thruster on the X80 - pretty cool.

Hey gotwake, I think that's the same X-15 that was here in NYC, I kinda like it. I think it was also the #1 out of the factory, the one in the photo shoots. Bow thruster on the X-80 just helps prove my point on how MC's need that in order to handle well... ;-)

And jeez CC's booth is awesome! I really like the old/new SkiNautique theme, w/ the new 196 above the old... whatever that model is.... The blu/blk Ski 206 is the hottest color combo I've seen this year on that new gelcoat pattern, and the Orange 220, that boat is very unique. The dash, grills, tower, console, etc... don't see that done everyday and looks nice and stands out at the same time... I like it... 8-)

That orange dash and steering wheel is one of the ugliest things I have ever seen.

CC must be so happy that MC is sticking with those graphics...

i could see bow thrusters on a 28'to60'.....is that an upgrade?

I took a few more pics for yall. Notice the IPS propulsion system- first time I saw it in person. Not on any ski boats, but still a neat idea.
