Ski Nautique with GT-40 and Dual Exhaust?

Must be pretty rare. Never seen one before except with the big block.

Call em up. Might just be a mislabeled Python.

I have heard stories of at least one GT-40 Ski coming out of West Coast Correct Craft, with dual exhaust. If a Python equipped boat can have dual exhaust, why not a GT-40?

I suspect it is a Python. Look at the difference in motor boxes in the 2001 and the 1997. Python box is much larger.

1997 with GT-40:

The motorboxes were changed between 1997 and 1998 model year. I think you should call them, or E-Mail them.

I noticed the size difference in the motorcover too. Wonder where they rerouted the steering cable and tiller arm? It would be interesting to see a picture from the inside.

I thought the first year of the smaller cover with drink holders in back were on the 95 Masters Edition? no?

The 1995 siggie was the first clamshell cover and was used thru 1997. The 1998+ went with an even smaller cover.

I want to know this as well. I emailed Whitelake and asked them to take pics. It would be equally valuable for someone who has a Ski with a Python to chime in (rocco?).

Rocco will generally only chime in when some knocks the python so he can defend it and tell everyone how much he loves it, sooo I'll smoke him out.

Those pythons are slow, shake too much, suck gas, and too **** loud. He should be here with an hour

rocco is probably not near a computer and cant figure out why his ears are burning, blood pressure is up and the vein in his forehead is doing that Clint Eastwood thing.

that looks like the same cover as the 97, just a different angle. you can't see the cup holders from that angle. looks just like my 97 to me. have to go home and look.

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Ski Nautique with GT-40 and Dual Exhaust

I touched base with White Lake and that is in fact a GT40 with dual exhaust. They cant get any pictures for me, though. Hopefully someone with a newer Nautique with duals will be willing to share!
