Is there a difference in the shape of the bottom of the stern planing surface between the '92 Sport Nautique and the '94 Ski Nautique?

Id imagine so but can't speak for certain. If your thinking of any skiing, go With the ski nautique

Is the Ski really better for skiing than the Sport. If yes, why as they both have center mounted engines and are pretty close in weight? Ski = 2350, Sport = 2550 0r 2700.
Why do I get an error message when I try to reply on my iPhone? It says my session has expired even if I refresh the page time and time again. |

The 89-92 Sport Nautique will be larger than the Ski Nautique, they also have a molded in platform, and lifting strakes. I'd imagine the 94' Ski Nautique will have a flatter wake, but the Sport would still get the job done.

Thanks. I've never heard that term before. How would one know if a boat had lifting strakes? Does my '94 Ski N have them?

It does same for me with an Android. You need to hit the reply button in the top right corner of a post, which will open a new screen and reply from there. It's an issue with the mobile version of the site. You can also switch to the desktop version of the site (not sure how to do this in an iphone) and then the reply at the bottom of the page works. I prefer to use the mobile version from a phone. |

The first picture is a 94 SN. Looking at the forward section of the hull, you will see no lifting strakes - it's smooth. The second picture is a 94 BFN where you can see the strakes. Strakes are added for additional lift out of the water typically on a deep vee hull or like the BFN a semi deep vee hull.
