Thanks for the info. This forum never disappoints.

Need help from knowledgeable ballers about an engine code that appeared while skiing Saturday. The code said ECT 116 ECT higher than expected at stage one. I was skiing behind the boat when we lost power and the code appeared. Engine temps where normal and when we opened up the clamshell the engine and exhaust manifolds didn't seem any warmer than normal. I turned off the battery to clear the code. The boat never showed the code again as we went a back to the dock at 30 mph. I check my impeller and it seemed to be in one piece. Any ideas? Do I have a bad sensor? Thanks in advance.

@OldboyII did the manufacture's name rhyme with hood?

It is the newer version.

I'm currently on the C75. I love the ski, honestly it's been the first ski since the Nano 1 where I can confidently turn my onside. For those that are on the C85 and transitioned from the C75 what are you seeing as the differences in the skis?

at least she didn't have a lit cigarette hanging out of her mouth!

I have three Camaro suits and a Stokes. I have to have help getting into all of them. It seems to be the nature of the beast.

Don't like price=don't buy; that's the beauty about free market.

OMG, if he slips off of those skis he's going to have an new orifice created from that spinning prop.

I saw that and I still am not comprehending how its done. If I tried that I would have ended up on the the shoreline or the next state. Fantastic skiiing. #Ilovemydenali

@oldjeep what was it that scared you about riding it? To me it looks like you'd rip your shoulder off if you caught it on something.

Ive got a 67. PM if interested.

I'll echo the other posters, Chet is one of the best. You won't regret going to ski with him. The biggest problem is that his coaching slots fill up FAST. Check his website and look at the calendar. There are instructions on how to reserve a spot. The night your dates open up you need to be at your computer ready to book. I hope you get in, oh and welcome to your new addiction!

@"Keith Menard" No, but he did plug his nose.

I thought this thread was going to be about us helping you to pick a wife. I missed the ski part in the title.

It's all wrong! Who thinks this s%@t up? Skier: I'm so bored. Boat Driver: I know, let's see how fast I can pull you behind my boat rated for 130 mph. Me: So I just stay behind the boat??? How do I know if I won? Boat Driver: You win if I hit 130 mph and your ski doesn't explode and you skip across the water for a 1/4 mile. Me: Where's the handle, let's do this?!? Oh, hey, can I bring a friend? Boat Driver: Mmmm, ok.

I've heard comments from those that have skied behind the Nautique and they weren't flattering about the wake. What specifically is it that some people don't like about the wake? Btw, I have owned three nautiques(currently in a 200) and I am considering a 2021 Ski Nautique. @jjackkrash thanks for giving me a gelcoat pattern, I love your boat.

Ground to a halt!

Wow, I really wasn't asking for comments on pricing on this boat. I just thought I'd share what is in my local market and offer to help someone out if they were interested in having someone take a closer look at it. But thanks for letting me know how overpriced it is.

This isn't my boat but I've seen it and I know the guys that have worked on it. It was owned by a gentleman in Jackson Hole, WY. It's been for sale since this spring, I think someone could get a good deal on what looks like a nice boat. It has a new engine with 68 hours on it. There aren't any records on the previous hours put on the boat. It's 20 minutes from me and if someone wanted me to look at it for them I'd be happy to do so. https://eastidaho.craigslist.org/boa/d/pocatello-1998-ski-nautique-196/7160576792.html

I have a 67 NRG. I ended up in the stock position.

Usually, about mid pass, when I notice the missing buoy, I mutter an expletive. It might rhyme with other trucker.

Does anyone else think that engine cover looks like it might, "transform".....

I have a C65 that I stopped ridding about two years ago. The ski was just a little bit too twitchy for me. For those of you who have ridden the C65 and are now on the C75 how does it compare to the C65? How is the onside turn? The C65 had a great offside but I struggled to get consistent with the onside. Just curious if the ski is a little more balanced.
