Can anyone tell me how the wake is behind a fish nautique?
I'm looking at buying a 1987 Fish Nautique to replace my 1990 196. I live on the Gulf, wakeboard, wakesurf and want to fish. ------------- Natron |

Natron, The closest boat to the Fish that I could remember that someone set up to use for wake boarding is this one:

1990air, I have a Cuddy Nautique that has the identical hull of a Fish. Very poor wakeboard wake, it washes out at the crest making a poor launch wake. We tried some wakesurfing with marginal success. We needed more weight (people) in the boat. I think we might be able to get a decent wakesurf wake with some trial and error.
I love this boat on the open water, it handles great and has a super ride. It is a wet boat though with a tendence to throw water forward causing spray to come back into the cockpit when running into the wind. Here is picture of the wake at wakeboard speed  ------------- http://correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=1160" rel="nofollow - 1988 Ski Nautique |

We tried surfing behind Nautique John's Fish while visiting Reid this summer, we had 6 or 7 people in the boat and moved the bodies all over trying to find the right setup, not much success but was still a lot of fun, my guess would be if weighted quite a bit you could probably get it to work OK.

Actually, I thought the wake cleaned up better when we distributed the weight instead of all of us in the back corner. The wake still sucked however. ------------- |

Here's a few pics of when we tried surfing behind the Fish down at Reid's this summer to give you an idea of what the wake looks like.
