Looking for a pair of the factory (preferred) ski racks for my '04 196. Tried to check out the Skitree product but looks as if they may be gone? Anyone have a pair they want to sell, let me know.
Thanks, Ron ------------- Rip it up! |

Welcome to the site guys!
Ron have they changed the racks from '04? Could you not find them(factory)as you prefered at your CC dealer? ------------- ...those who have fallen and those who will. |

Found a set at Orlando Nautiques, somewhere around $800. Feed back I was getting was they are cumbersome and get in the way more than they help. For 8 bills I decided to pass. If I found a set within reason (2 - 3 bills) I would give them a shot.
Still looking if anyone has a set they want to part with. Also a post going over at PN on this subject. Staronewake - no tower (on a 196?) these go on the starboard side as in pic over on Planet Nautique - Gear and related items ------------- Rip it up! |

Ron, Not sure I would agree with the above statement, the space behind the drivers seat is somewhat dead space so I am not sure how they would get in the way any more then a ski on the floor? Use ours often, helps keep things sorted out. Anyways, here's a pic for reference, assuming this is the style you are looking for.  ------------- http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=1143" rel="nofollow - Mi Bowt |

quinner, thanks for the input, I should have been a little more clear. Your set up looks sweet by the way. Most, not all of the feedback I got back on the racks was they were not worth the cost, didn't really give a viable solution to ski storage and different length skis with different boot set ups made it more of a challenge. I certainly agree that skis on the floor are just, if not more of a pain but spending $800+ just didn't seem cost effective. I wish I had ordered them with the boat and the cost wouldn't have been noticed but I didn't. Aesthetically they look nice and I can see them working for one ski on a consistent basis and again, if I could find a set in the $300 range I would go for them.
Godfather -who is "we" and what dealer- - my Nautique dealer or??? Can you give my some estimation of the cost shipped or is my earlier quote from Orlando Nautiques of $800 + shipped in the ballpark? ------------- Rip it up! |
