Baller fu_man Posted March 3, 2019 Baller Share Posted March 3, 2019 I saw this on CL by chance as I was looking around. Pink American Skier. I did not anticipate liking it as much as I do. Not sure what adjective suits it best....classy, handsome, striking, elegant, different? I like it! Imagine how it would look if that teak was scrubbed and re oiled! https://images.craigslist.org/00M0M_6X7bYpFOXXE_600x450.jpg https://images.craigslist.org/01414_jl2CQmSiuDK_600x450.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlando76 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Awesome!. Pink and white would’ve looked better though. My boat is purple (magenta) and honestly I only wear pink, purple and maybe blue. I’m a firm believer that 99% of all men are extremely hesitant to challenge another man in pink/purple for fear of getting “beat by the guy in pink”. Pretty disappointed at @Horton for giving up the pink MC idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Kimbymon Posted March 3, 2019 Baller Share Posted March 3, 2019 Maybe the person who owned this was perhaps a Mary Kay salesperson and said “I want a pink boat not a pink Cadillac?” ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Horton Posted March 3, 2019 Administrators Share Posted March 3, 2019 @Orlando76 I have not given up but it is hard hearing the MasterCraft factory laugh at me.

Baller lpskier Posted March 4, 2019 Baller Share Posted March 4, 2019 Wear you Kevlar battle vest, helmet and face mask when skiing into a stiff headwind at short line. Quote Lpskier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboardingschool Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 The guy that owns that is a friend of mine. He was the head technician at the MasterCraft dealer here in Orlando, when it was Liquid Sports. Great mechanic, so I'm sure the boat is top notch. I personally like the pink. And, @horton do you know how many color combos they have shut me down on? They did make me a purple X-Star one year though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsetr Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Boat appears to have migrated about 1300 miles north...”WS” is a Wisconsin registration number. And the pic looks like WI in fall... Nice looking boat! There is a ratty AS @ Twin Lakes Marine probably get it cheap...it appears to have been rode hard and put away wet...

theboardingschool Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 @Jetsetr He's originally for Wisconsin and moved back awhile ago. I don't think the boat was ever in Florida, but I could be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Nando Posted March 5, 2019 Baller Share Posted March 5, 2019 There was a pink and tourquoise American Sker promo in Wisconsin about that year. It was some special edition they had with a flamingo and palm tree motif. Took the owner a couple of years to sell it. I ski occasionally behind an ‘86 American Sker and while the wake is not bad, the spray at anything shorter than -32 is awful- as mentioned, especially in a head wind.
