    My 05' 260TE with quite a few more options then that one was only about 11k more brand new then what they are asking for that one. Price is high IMO.
    Tower is not factory also, it is a new dimension, which is the next best thing.

    BTW, where in Illinois are ya, I am on Deep Lake which is just east of the Fox Lake Chain

          Something is up with the doghouse also, should be a clamshell and the vinyl pattern does not appear to be factory.
          Missouri tags on a boat in Wisco could also be a red flag.

          Have a buddy down there, east shore just north of Erikson's.

            There is a link in my original post, here is the add pasted for you.
            2006 Ski Nautique 206LE with Tower, speakers and lights. - $34995 (Madison)






















            condition: good
            make / manufacturer: Ski Nautique
            model name / number: 206




            If you're looking for the perfect "starter boat" to get your family into the water sports world, here it is. With the famous quality of Ski Nautique and their popular water skiing hull, you can enjoy the subtle style of water skiing behind one of the classics. If your flavor leans more toward wake boarding, this boat is equipped for that too. It can throw a nice wake to start to learn to do all the tricks you see the pro's doing.

            This is a great cross over boat that skis well and wake boards good.

            With less than 300 hours on the 5.7l V8 Direct drive, she will pull your arms off if you're not paying attention.

            Trailer included.

            Financing available to those who qualify.

              $35k is too much for that boat. The motorbox upholstery has definitely been replaced as well. I wonder what happened to the engine shroud? Weird how you see them missing on some used boats. I have family by Madison, who may be able to put some eyes on it for you?

                It would be helpful to know what your interests are (i.e. wakeboarding, slalom, family cruising, etc). Do you boat with a large group or a couple a people? What is your budget? Would you consider a v-drive (i.e. Super Air / Super Sport)? If $35k is your budget you are in the range where you could pickup a clean 210.

                  That thing wreaks of being in a flood or theft recovery. Trailer says vandervere which was a dealer in Ohio, Missouri tags, located in WI with a bunch of missing parts and non-original interior? Chop at least $10-12k off ask on that thing.

                    I agree. Drop is 10-12k. If youre looking for a wakeboard boat, you wouldnt be happy. If a slalom, you should pick this boat up for 10-12k less. The asking price is for a pristine 206, probably one owner.

                      Oh yeah, the New Dimension tower is the next best thing to factory. Just make sure the installation was done right and no cracking on the gel coat or glass. The towers are well made.

                          Hey Scott, One reason may be with perfect pass installed the shroud would interfere with the throttle cable causing an intermittent high idle situation, notice the original thumbscrews are still there just no shroud.

                            I mainly waterski and barefoot, wake board on occasion with my kids. My boys wake board, we are a family of 5 so I want an open bow. I have looked a V-drives but would rather stay away from them.
