Vitals:

My Ski Nautique is a 1974 Correct Craft inboard runabout has a fiberglass hull, is 17’-9” (17.75) feet long and 76 inches wide at the widest point. The boat weighs approximately 2100 pounds with an empty fuel tank and without any gear or passengers. The hull ID is CTC02469M741SNM0. The engine is a Ford 351W putting out 255 HP and was marined by Commander with a closed cooling system.

I bought this boat in 1995 with a blown engine. I paid $2,800 for it. I always wanted a comp ski boat and a direct drive. I rebuilt the engine, redid all wiring and gauges. I now have 590 hours on it. This year I decided to give is a good detailing. I had both of the front seats reupholstered. The bench seat had two brasses holding the backrest. I added a third in the center for extra support. I had a friend repaint all the lettering and Strips. He got carried away and pinstriped it all. Looks real good.
