Now available for sale is this beautiful 1997 Ski Nautique. This is a Masters Edition boat, finished in Green and Zephyr with gold metal flake pinstripes and accents. This boat has the 5.8L HO GT-40 EFI engine that produces 310 horsepower with a 1.23:1 transmission. The engine has 700 hours on the clock. The propeller is an Acme 422. It also has the factory-option depth finder. Over the last few days it has had a number of improvements completed to bring it to its current condition. Here are a few.


  • New Fuel Lines

  • New Fuel/Water Separator Filter

  • New Spark Plugs

  • New Spark Plug Wires

  • New Distributor Cap & Rotor

  • Fresh Oil & Filter Change

  • New Gas Shocks on Engine Box


The engine runs very nicely.


While this is a very nice vessel, it has not undergone a full restoration, and it does have some imperfections. I try to list as many imperfections as possible when selling a boat so that there are no surprises. Here are a few of the imperfections:


  • The PerfectPass system on this boat does not hold speed. We believe the servo motor has seized and will require replacement for the system to function. The gauge and Master Module seem to be working.

  • The carpet is not new, and is showing signs of wear.

  • The gelcoat would benefit from a good wet sanding and buffing.

  • The stereo does not work.


The trailer is a 1997 single-axle (this is the one in the pictures). This trailer matches the boat nicely and tows well, however the brakes do not seem to work. This trailer came from a non-title state, so the trailer will be sold with a bill of sale only.


Price for this boat:

$13,900 with the trailer

Now available for sale is this beautiful 2000 Nautique Super Sport. This boat is finished in Hunter Green and Zephyr with gold metal flake pinstripes and accents. This boat has the coveted 5.8L HO GT-40 engine with EFI that produces 310 horsepower. The propeller is the original OJ, and it has been refurbished by OJ, so it is near-perfect. This boat has a newer stereo system with remote, the factory-option depth finder, a matching bimini top, and over the last few months it has had a number of improvements completed to bring it to its current condition. Here are a few.


  • Gelcoat freshly wet sanded, polished and buffed

  • New pinstripes

  • New graphics -- all of them

  • Windshield frame freshly painted

  • Main gauges replaced

  • New spark plugs

  • New spark plug wires

  • New blower & hoses

  • Fresh Oil Change with PCM brand filter

  • Fuel Control Cell freshly serviced with PCM brand filter

  • Freshly refinished swim platform

  • Rear bench seat backrest upholstery is new

  • Engine hatch upholstery is new

  • Several seat bases have new upholstery


Everything works as-designed, and the engine runs very nicely.


While this is a very nice vessel, it has not undergone a full restoration, and it does have some imperfections. I try to list as many imperfections as possible when selling a boat so that there are no surprises. Here are a few of the imperfections:


  • The vinyl, while very nice, is showing some signs of wear on some pieces. There are a few small stains, and a few very small cracks. Some upholstery has been replaced and is in perfect condition (see above).

  • There are a few small chips in the Hunter Green gelcoat, and one gouge near the tip of the bow. There are pictures of these below.


This boat can come with a trailer, or if you do not need a trailer, the price can be discounted.


The available trailer is a 2023 Boatmate dual-axle (this is the one in the pictures). This trailer has brakes on both axles, all of the lights work, and it comes with a clean and clear North Carolina title in my name. There is damage to one inner bunk on this trailer that was done by a forklift attempting to load a boat onto it. I have used it like this for two years with no problems, but I wanted to disclose it so that there are no surprises. This would be an easy fix if the trailer needed to be perfect. This trailer was made for a Super Air Nautique 230, so the bunks are about two feet longer than necessary for this boat, but this boat fits on it with no problems, and the extra bunk length makes boarding the boat from outside easy.


The boat has a clean and clear North Carolina title.

The trailer has a clean and clear North Carolina title.


Price for this boat:

$17,900 with trailer
