Naked Nautique

[lcap]

Talk about tall cotton! Now if I could just get Grant to sell me some carbon fiber to cover up the warning labels on the dash.....

[lcap]

Thanks for the positive feedback. It has taken me a while to get used to no graphics but I'm really starting to like it.

Hollywood:

I'll take that as the ultimate compliment! No more perfect form than that.

[Onthewater]

I've already started to take it apart. As soon I have it back together, I'll post some more.

[DRAGON88]

Icap, taking it apart?? Sound system, or just for s*its and giggles?

[lcap]

I've learned alot about what works and what doesn't for how we use our boats. This combined with some of WhiteChocolates inspiration has prompted me to make some changes.

1. Swim Deck is apart for the transom saver.
2. Dash and seating areas are apart for stainless steel cupholders, warning label covers, stereo upgrades
3. Racks are off for the white star inlays--should match the air logo when finished
4. Thermostat housing, hoses and drains are off for new thermostat, flushpro, and quick drains for block and heater.

[Pratt]

Where did you find stainless stell cup holders, and what are white star inlays?

[WakeUpDude]

We actually sold it and bought my grandpas place from him on lake chelan. I miss riding on the river down there, I try to make it to the river a couple times every summer to ride with some friends that still have places there.

[Hollywood]

For what it's worth, I think you own the slickest 00-01 closed bow SN I've ever seen and would really enjoy some more photos of it. That's why I got on your case.

[Rick]

Very, Very Nice! Here is a picture of my interior from last summer. I'm putting a bimini and tower speakers that will match the grey. I only have three colors on the boat.

Love the nakedness. Love all Nautiques but my favorites are on this posting. I'm stripping the goofy carton like "Nautique" off the side of my 206 this winter. I prefer the clean look with single secondary midnight blue stripe. My wife is objecting--saying that now nobody will know its a Nautique unless they view the transom. I told her that until she decides to learn to pull me in the course, she has little say! Besides, the best view is from behind the boat anyway.

Thank you! I had a guy in the neighborhood that liked the look of my boat so well he decided to take his stickers off his while the wife was shopping. When she came home she caught him half finished and would not let him take them off the other side. She wants them on, he wants both sides off.

We have a neighborhood pool going on, we'll see who wears the "pants."

Icap.....good looking Boat also....The Story on my boat...
Got it out of Texas last June ,,from a Lawyer,,He had about 4 boats,
couple Pontoons,jet-skis etc...this boat stayed on his Lift!!!..had 30 hours on it ...His Play Boat(thats what he called it)...And he Special Orderd it From CorrectCraft in Fl....All White..The N on the sides is outlined in Gray.. White on White....inside White with Gray strips around the seats,with Gray Carpet...Boat Trailer is also Gray!!!!.I asked him why the White (naked look)...he said have you ever lived in Texas...It Hot all the Time!!!!!..so if you lay your hand on it anywhere in don't burn you!!!
And hes Right?????..........I also have a White Bimini Top for those warn days and rain... first I said its OK...but Now I love It!!!

CC boats have classic lines that really play nice with the naked look. On the other hand, I'm not impressed with the X-Star without the decal. Sorta looks like a Regal from the angle presented. I'd have to see the whole boat to make a decision. Not knocking the MC--just would need a better view.

[rocco]

Well the M.C. just aren't the same look either way to me..My nephew as a X-star also..and we battle back and forth on the boats,,,He says he Likes mind!!!!......The only thing about the (RED),,he had one before this one 2000 model,and it faded pretty Bad in a year...Black dash ,black carpet,the works...But it got so HOT,you could'nt set in it..maybe its a winter Boat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Rocco

[Onthewater]

I like the naked look on any boat. I liken it to automobiles, huge graphics or company names are just eyesores to me. Clean classic lines are where it is at.
