I was out with the family this weekend and decided to play a game with the kids. I Spy a Correct Craft. My home lake is Lake Delhi, Iowa. A small river with a dam. Approx 7 miles long, and 100-200 yards wide and very curvy. We counted 71 Correct Crafts, and probably under 10 other inboards of different manufacturers.

This isn't "My" lake, but the Lake James chains up in Angola, Indiana have tons of CC's. Of course it helps that Mid-west CC was there.

I would be real surprised if you find one with more per captia than Whitelake NC, it was nearly a tie between correctcrafts and everything else combined.

White Lake Marine in White Lake, NC is the oldest CC dealer in the country. They have been their for over 50 years. It is a very small lake, but I heard there were 380 something Correct Crafts registered on the lake. However, I am not sure.

Great thread! If you want to talk Tx lakes, Lake Austin is full of Correct Crafts.. If I had to make another guess, I am sure though, you guys up there in the east coast and mid eastern region have maybe a few more.
The lake I go too it is all newer Malibu's, Tige,Supra's and Master Crafts. If there is even year model around 80-86 they are Mastercrafts Stars and Stripes, or Ski Supreme.. But you know they would rather have the Correct Craft..

Wrong!! You believe their "hype" too?? Their math is off slightly! Do you really believe everything you see or hear? Well, now I guess I'll have to go count CC's!! I certainly won't even try to guess. Our Three Lakes Wi. chain is made up of 20 lakes or 7626 acres giving it a shoreline of 111 miles. Watercraft Sales is on this system and being a CC dealer since 1949 certainly has sold a few CC's!!! My 54 is a Watercraft boat!!!

Pete, you asked me the following question: Do you really believe everything you see or hear?
I do not believe anything that the President tells me, but I believe everything you tell me.

+1 for White Lake. I can't imagine that their's any body of water anywhere with a higher percentage of CCs per registered watercraft (including jetskis etc.)

I vote for White Lake, especially for the size and the number of CC's, it's only 90 acres of water.

300 cc's or 600 boats on 90 acres?? That must be a typo?? Would guess we have around 40-50 boats total on our 220 acre lake, and only 1 CC. |

Hey Mike...look for my nephew, Brett Berry on Wylie. He unfortunatly has a "brand x" boat....name begins with a M. But he grew up with C/C. Both his Dad (my brother the lurker) and his favorite uncle (guess who) have owned 6 each. He is a friendly, fun young man and a awesome skier. His boat is on a lift and it is black. You won't be sorry to meet him. john |

2000 Census has the whole town of White Lake at 238 registered households. Not sure of what percentage is on the lake. That would mean everyone in town has 1+ Correct crafts. Looks like a sweet place though.

400 acres of water in Lake Winnebago, maybe six Nautiques, ours is the oldest, the loudest, and the reddest, by about 25 years.
Most of the IB's here are malibu or mc. On the Lake of the Ozarks, 90 miles long and over 1500 miles of shore line you can hardly find a CC, or many IB's that are not cruisers. Chuck |

Here on Fountain Lake located in the center of Albert Lea, Minnesota we now have three on our lake. One of which is my '84 SN2001 that I sold to my neighbor. And with the addition of my newly acquired 2008 SN206 it jumped the number from two to three. We have a lot of Centurions, some Malibus and MC's.

Chuck, Lake Ozark, somewhere between 54,000 or 55,000 surface acres.
I know of over 16 close to me. Few years back, 12 rental CC's at just one Marina. It would probably take months to scan each and every cove. AT |

I am surprised no one has mentioned Florida. They are flooded with inboards down there. Tons of lakes too..

AT, where we are, around the 10 I know of only one mid 80's Nautique that is still around. Gotta have 26' nearly to survive the channel on the weekends. Although I have noticed things a lot quieter this summer, at least during the week. Seldom do we show up on the weekend, unless it's a big family event. Chuck |

We're doing good; my sons have had the boat out more than me, I'm glad for them, sad for me.
The summer as usual is flying by. Chuck |

Right now Balch Lake has:
1.My 1993 SN 2.An early era 69ish Mustang 3.A later, like 72 Mustang 4.2001 hull SN, mid 80's 5.Oh! I spotted a Ski Tique last weekend, I was excited as I had not sen it before. 6.I know someone has a Sport Nautique but I haven't seen it out yet this year. I don't think any of them except me are CCFans though 
Considering how small the lake is, and the crazy high number of party barges and bass boats, that's pretty respectable. There's a fair amount of old style Malibu Responses, I'd say it's a close race between those and CCs for inboard ski boats. |
