I wanted to get an inexpensive ski boat for my twin boys, but instead ended up with a very expensive toy for dad.
I found Hatari listed on Ebay in 2004 - and in very bad shape. She was originally a Lake Tahoe boat from 1962 to the late 1990s. A man in Virginia bought her after she sat on a trailer for several years and brought her to the east coast to restore. Ultimately she was too big a job and he put her back up for sale.
Since 2005, she has been completely restored with new bottom, deck, interior, windshield and rebuilt engine. She runs great and even without the 3 skags, she tracks extremely well when towing a skier.
The only reference I can find to her name is that Hatari! was a John Wayne movie that was released in 1962.
