Baller motoxr Posted January 20, 2020 Baller Share Posted January 20, 2020 The J Crafts looked amazing! If only had enough money for a regular Direct Drive and a J! The guys at the booth were great! We even got a couple of J Craft t-shirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller motoxr Posted January 22, 2020 Baller Share Posted January 22, 2020 Thank you for sharing the link above! Great read and funny enough, Paul Roberts is in the J Craft booth. (Former show skier). He used to sell Malibu's and also run Spray Lake (north of Toronto). Now he at J craft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller jjackkrash Posted January 27, 2020 Baller Share Posted January 27, 2020 At then Seatle shows there was 1 Ski Nautique, 1 200, and 1 Prostar. Interestingly, there was an all-electric Nautique 210 as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller OldGuysRule Posted January 27, 2020 Baller Share Posted January 27, 2020 Attended the Louisville, Ky boat show yesterday. Absolutely huge production but it lacked any ski boats. It was all BIG boats probably more suitable for the Ohio River and/or Dale Hollow, Norris, or Kentucky/Bartley Lakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller MuskokaKy Posted January 27, 2020 Baller Share Posted January 27, 2020 @Rednucleus thought id just mention this as i thought you'd get a laugh. Malibu had 7 boats and 2 Axis in their booth this year- no DD The Ironic Part was the big screen TV they had in the booth had a video on replay, of a response and all the team malibu Skiers. T-Gas; Regina; Will etc....Awesome video and great marketing tool....but NO FRIGGIN' BOAT!!!! The new Malibu still alludes me :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller BrianKennedy91 Posted January 27, 2020 Baller Share Posted January 27, 2020 Birmingham, AL boat show this weekend. Not a ski boat from the big 3. Plenty of wake boats on display ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller cougfan Posted January 30, 2020 Baller Share Posted January 30, 2020 The Wednesday night crew made it to the Seattle boat show yesterday. Started the day with breakfast at @Rednucleus, egg casserole killer blueberry coffecake lots of bacon?and Bloody Mary’s. Happy hour at the Pyramid brewery. Found time to see these 3 ski boats. No other ski boats at the show☹️ Lots of wake and surf boats. Nautique did have an electric wakeboard boat. Second greatest day of the year right behind the start of ski season. Had a good time spending the day with my 3 ski partners? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller MuskokaKy Posted January 31, 2020 Baller Share Posted January 31, 2020 @cougfan those are some nice DD's. Love the prostar! Looks like you guys get a pretty good show. I'm guessing based on the pics i don't even need to ask @Rednucleus if a response was there.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller cougfan Posted January 31, 2020 Baller Share Posted January 31, 2020 @MuskokaKy Talked to the Malibu dealer and they have a Response at the dealership but decided not to bring it☹️ they said they don’t sell enough DDs to bother. Show was great lots of boats and exhibitors. Saw an electric Nautique wakeboard boat. One of my ski partners and I are researching converting an old DD from gas to electric. If anyone has any info send it my way it would be greatly appreciated ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller MuskokaKy Posted January 31, 2020 Baller Share Posted January 31, 2020 @cougfan i dont have access to Youtube here @ work; but Nautique did a full electric DD years ago. want to say 2013. Andy Mapple and I think CP were the testers behind it for the video. You could be able to find it pretty easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller MuskokaKy Posted January 31, 2020 Baller Share Posted January 31, 2020 I would be surprised if that boat is still not in operation somewhere; or in nautique's back room ;) haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller andjules Posted January 31, 2020 Baller Share Posted January 31, 2020 @motoxr @MuskokaKy a) I grew up skiing behind a JCraft our family bought from the CNE ski show (with center-mount throttle!) b) years later I skied for a summer at the CNE ski show (behind JCrafts, of course) c) last summer I ended up skiing several times with Paul Roberts at his new lake (behind a Ski Nautique 200) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller escmanaze Posted February 10, 2020 Baller Share Posted February 10, 2020 Utah show this last weekend. Had the new ski nautique and a prostar on display. I was pretty pumped about that. 2 for 3 aint bad for such a small market here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller unksskis Posted February 10, 2020 Baller Share Posted February 10, 2020 Dallas Boat show had a beautiful Ski Nautique from Buxton Marine, that was the only 3 event boat I saw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller OldGuysRule Posted February 24, 2020 Baller Share Posted February 24, 2020 The Indianapolis Boat and Sport Show just concluded. This is a "premier" show in the mid-west. No ski boats but one a local sports equipment company (Sun Valley Sports) did have a collection of water skis and soft goods. The local Nautique dealer had a new Paragon Wake/Surf boat on display for a whopping $318,398!!! (Offered a $46,883 discount!!!) I think I've lived too long!
