Now thats funny!!! Went to look at the other pics, had my whole family laughing.
The windshield is from an old Larson.
I really liked the whole anchor system on the front deck!
So what is it?? I'm guessing a Skylark.

Whoops. maybe not, 64, probably a Tahoe or Star Flite.

Steve, Could very well be an American Skier. Look at the 1963 broc.   Am Skier white w/ blue top deck, no deck behind the front seats.   Anyway looks like a good strut and rudder.

Hello guy/gals!! I see you found my ebay ad.lol. I really wish i did'nt have to sell her, but i could really use a couple extra bucks. The thing i regret the most about selling it, is that i never even got to take her out for 1 ride . Yes.... that steering wheel gets alot of attention.lol. I really truly hope she goes to someone who will fix her up and get her back on the water again. she deserves it!!!

silverstang, Sorry for the cruel cracks, but here's what I did with my 66 Correct Craft.


Motor stringers rotted out, not worth restoring.
If you had more of the original parts, you would do a lot better by parting it out.

I really want to find something like that to put on the wall at the lakehouse, then get someone to paint my kids skiing behind it! If anyone knows where I can find an old stern, please let me know!

Or, I saw a post where Nautiquefanatic is trying to unload a couple of '79 Ski Nautique hulls.

I think that one could remove the lower part of your legs.
