My dream for many years has been to own a Ski Nautique. I grew up watching a fellow drive a Corvette towing a matching SN to the lake and thought it was the coolest ever. When I finally got the opportunity to ski behind one in the early '80s I was hooked. Over the last few decades we have owned mostly salt-water offshore style boats. The last being a 29 Fountain CC. My wife decided my 2 y/o son and I needed a project to keep us out of her hair during the week while homeschooling our older children. We found this 1981 - sad and neglected but complete. I have done a ton of research and already stripped both the hull and engine. Plan on doing a complete rebuild, including stringers, deck, and engine.
