Baller_ MISkier Posted March 15, 2019 Baller_ Posted March 15, 2019 I received my boat registration renewal packet today. This image in the invasive species pamphlet caught my eye. The MasterCraft 197 sterndrive (with engine still amidship). The worst slalom equipment I own is between my ears.

Baller_ MISkier Posted March 15, 2019 Author Baller_ Posted March 15, 2019 I'm not sure where the State of Michigan got that image. Maybe somebody was warming up for St. Patrick's Day as they put that pamphlet together. But, other MI skiers should be getting one just like it, as our renewals are every 3 years by March 31. The worst slalom equipment I own is between my ears.
Baller skibrain Posted March 15, 2019 Baller Posted March 15, 2019 Must be the 197 Fish & Ski - it’s got a live well.
Baller_ MISkier Posted March 15, 2019 Author Baller_ Posted March 15, 2019 @skibrain, perfect model name for it! The worst slalom equipment I own is between my ears.
Baller dave2ball Posted March 15, 2019 Baller Posted March 15, 2019 Looks a hybrid cross of a hydrodyne and an old PS197. bet it would ski great.
Baller_ DW Posted March 15, 2019 Baller_ Posted March 15, 2019 Or someone at MDEQ has a great sense of humor.
Baller Hockdog Posted March 15, 2019 Baller Posted March 15, 2019 Especially with the trailer wheel tucked up in the hull...
Baller Cooper_Trelawney Posted March 15, 2019 Baller Posted March 15, 2019 Remember when correct craft and mastercraft both made center console fishing boats?
Baller UWSkier Posted March 15, 2019 Baller Posted March 15, 2019 Always wondered where the livewell was on a 197.
Baller Orlando76 Posted March 15, 2019 Baller Posted March 15, 2019 @Cooper_Trelawney hmmmm...... what MC was a center console? You mean that kinda hybrid 20’ from about 10 years ago that wasn’t really a fishing boat? I’m drawing a blank. Now CC built everything from 14’ Tri hulls to 56’ cabin cruisers with every freaking flavor of propulsion under the sun.
Baller skimtb Posted March 15, 2019 Baller Posted March 15, 2019 Looks like it may have the catamaran hull option too since the trailer frame and bunks are hidden up inside. I’ll bet it tracks nice.
Baller Cooper_Trelawney Posted March 15, 2019 Baller Posted March 15, 2019 @orlando76, yeah it was called the CXS or something along those lines. It had a center console helm. Not sure how it was marketed/purposed. Perhaps salt water tubing? ?
