I can't believe I did this!

[Noelb]

I used to have a 211, which I loved. In 2008 I had a pretty bad knee injury from wakeboarding, so decided that selling the boat would be the only way to stay "safe".

So I bought a 196, and really got into slalom skiing (Am I sounding wreckless yet? Stay tuned). I started doing the course last summer and now I'm a junkie.

Now I decided that my knee isn't hurting so much anymore. Casually I started browsing the boat ads during the winter, you know, just out of curiosity... Then, sure enough, I found this great deal on a 210. I figured, "what have I got to lose?". So I bought the darn thing!!!! The deal is so good that I'll hang on to both boats (the 196 and the 210) for a while. In a perfect world, I will catch a slalom set or two in the morning, the a quick Wakeboard set, then it's out on the lake with the family and friends for some cruising, surfing, tubing...

So here she is: It's a 2008 Team, loaded, which I'm actually buying NEW. Now, if only our lakes could thaw...

Congrts on the new 210.I see you live in Montreal.I live right across the border in Vermont Near Rouses Point and Champlain NY(about an hour away).We just got a new 2008 236 team.Our partner in the boat actually lives in Laval.Do you ever ride in Lake Champlain?If so we should get together. Who do you use for service up there?

[Noelb]

Hey Jan, great to hear, thanks for the invite. I'd love to ride on Lake Champlain, so I won't be shy to hit you up. We have some friends who camp on Isle Lamotte, and we usually go there once or twice during the summer. I know of a great little riding spot in a "closed' bay right across from Isle Lamotte on the Vermont side (towards Venise en Quebec).

Right now we're riding in St-Hippolyte. That would be about 25 minutes from Laval. Send me a PM if you ever plan to go.

For general service, I use this local guy, while not a dealer, he's a very experienced mechanic. For bigger jobs, the Nautique dealer is SG Sport in Granby. They're probably 2 hrs away (towing the boat) from our place.

Holy smokes, Jan, I just noticed in your profile... Lakehurst is exactly where our friends are!!!! Their parents are Alan and Mich Stringer, you know them for sure, Ha Ha!!!

A buddy of mine has the same set up. 99SAN Python and a 94SN. We surf til it's flat and then go footing.

Congrats on the fleet.

Hey Noel
I definitely know Al & Mich and Eric.I don't ever really get a chance to get to Montreal in the summer since I work everyday at the campground.But we ride almost every night in the bay you are talking about.We call it Carry Bay.Drop me a line or call me at the campground this summer if you come this way.

Best setup ever... One day I will own both.

Congrats on the new boat purchase. I have an 08 sante 210 as well and you will love it! let's hope we have great weather this summer so you can get plenty of use with both of your boats.
