I see people talking about a 69 ski nautique first generation how many gens are there and what's the difference. I have a 69 ski nautique but my windshield doesn't look like anyone else's I've seen.

At the moment its in the process of getting repainted. She is gutted right now. The windshield looks like something in the 70's. Its not a one piece like I see in pics.

Re-gelling or painting??? Re-gelling is a MAJOR undertaking. I did that to mine and it took me forever. Lots of help and info here. Just ask. Welcome to the group. Just be prepared, there are those here that think it is the Cardinal Sin to do anything different than what the factory did. Even if the factory did a slipshod job of it. Wiring is certainly their weakness Have fun with your project. Duane

I checked in gel coating and that's a little over my head. So I'm using that two part interlux epoxy. It won't be a factory restore but close. I have found the original speedometers but I still need to find the hood scoop and hopefully a wiring harness. I've had the boat for 35 years love it, but it needs a little TLC.

1997 was the TSC hull introduction, not 1998. Also TSC2 hull debuted in 2002.
The 2019 came out in April 2018. |

You forgot tsc2 and tsc3. The gen2 SN ran 70-81, it’s definitely a different animal from the 1gen.

Even though the new Nautique was debuted in April 2018 it is still a 2019 Ski Nautique.
