  1. was in a tournament years ago on a large open lake. wind was blowing 20-30mph with 2 foot waves rolling down the coarse. Most skiers were starting at their normal line length and speed and falling on first pass. When it was my turn I choose minimum boat speed and 75 foot rope. Made 2 full passes and won the tourn.
  2. that price makes zero off sound like a bargain
  3. a couple days ago i decided to cut up my valuable vintage skis and this is what I came up with.
  4. lake froze clear over. below zero a couple mornings ago. Worst october I can ever remember for skiing.
  5. i bought a new ski nautique in 1974. the manual said to change the oil every 100 hours. for 15 years i changed it every spring not knowing about oil contaminates. The boat has had 4 owners since then and is still running on original engine. I change oil every fall now on current boat.
  6. We kinda look forward to it because as soon as the word gets out we nearly have the lake to ourselves
  7. look like homemade guides to help driver stay centered in the slalom course.
  8. Here’s the invoice for a new nautique I bought in 1974
  9. we have gone out twice in the last couple weeks when our screen has said no GPS and then the next day it would be fine. does that sound like a puck problem or a GPS problem?
  10. lowest point on boat to top of windshield about 57 inches. not counting fins. floor to top of windshield 41 inches
  11. do you mean from the lowest point of the boat to the top of the windshield or the floor of the boat to the top of the windshield
  12. its a little difficult to measure with the boat on trailer but I have a 13 and the width at the widest point on bottom of boat is about 78 inches
  13. ski nautique at utah boat show
  14. My son worked as a ski instructor at camp Laurel several years ago and had a great experience.
  15. Scott, what did you think of the all white nautique? All the angles made it look like there was some gray. Had to look twice.
  16. check out this collection Its a fence next to a small cafe at Bear Lake in Utah. Had to have been a couple hundred feet long.
  17. I bought the taper flex ski as a young teenager. it was going to be the greatest new tech. mahogany core with formica top and bottom. really didn't fly. That was just before Obrien started building tunnel skis. Bought my first Obrien ski for $59.00.
  18. I got the new rope recently but it didn't come with a velcro wrap. Should it have?
  19. bought my first tournament boat from Ralph in 1974. 75 model nautique for 6500.00. has had 5 owners since and still running strong.
  20. this was supposed to be a picture of my rear strap. don't know if you can view it.
  21. because I have a crippled rear foot I used a rear strap for years. I used a section of bicycle inner tube and attached it under each side of the rear toe piece. It worked great for me.
