ski 196 racks

[dantheman]

still looking for the accessory ski racks that mount inside the starboard side of the boat. These are located in the 2005 nautique brochure, item#4. If anybody wants to sell or know where I can find them!!!!

Thanks!

RE: ski 196 racks

Dan, I've got it in my mind to start making these. I have access to CNC's and the ski racks are on my list to start working on(as well as new switch plates for an increased number of switches on an SE and a new key plate for a radio remote). I wish I could find a set and see how they mounted. Might save me some time.

Racks

Dano,

Orlando Nautiques (?) had a set not too long ago but they were somewhere around $800.00. I've heard from seveal that have/had them that they're not worth it. Ski storage on a 196 is a pain. Anyone with these racks - what is your input on functionality?

I have two pairs of the racks without the monting bracket never used... In Australia however... :grin:

I have the CC ski racks in a 2004 206. On my setup, I can only place the skis with bindings facing down and ski tip at rear of boat. Works well for 1 slalom. When used with 2 slalom skis (both double high-wrap bindings), it's a PITA to get the bottom ski out without having to move the top ski. There needs to be more room between the top & bottom skis.

Also have them in my 206, work well for me.

Quinner,

Have I ever said you have great colors.... It is close to looking in the mirror.

I'd be interested in a pair of racks.

RE: Re: racks

Make sure you use a shock tube. I had a similar rack on my '99. Twice the rope shot back in the boat and yanked a ski off the rack.

Quinner,
Where did you get that sweet floor mat?

RE: Re: racks

Corinthian was the company that made those floor mats for CC. They still have the pattern, although they cant embroider the logo. Pricing is pretty **** good. A lot cheaper than I thought. Nick from Corinthian is a member here so you can PM him.

RE: Re: racks

SWC,

Carpet runners (floor mats) came directly from the dealer (Watercraft Sales) when I ordered the boat, there has been a few threads regarding them over the years if you do a search.

Not sure if Corinthian is the same company, from the tag on my mats:
Aqua Mats
1-800-835-5920

RE: Re: racks

Corinthian does in fact have the templates for the 02-09 196 floor mats as Nick has emailed it to me. The prices ranged from $169-$199 depending on the carpet choice. Not sure about the 206, though.
