Boat is currently in storage, can show with a couple weeks notice and take out early with cash in hand
Selling my 2000 Sport Nautique to switch over to a V drive. Has the PCM GT40 5.8L fuel injected engine and sits on a single axle Ramlin trailer. This boat is in immaculate shape and turns heads anywhere I take it. It has NEVER seen saltwater, freshwater only. Boat is regularly waxed, and the interior is in pristine condition (very minor tear on engine cover from wakeboard falling). Has less than 400 hours and runs great. The pictures really do speak for themselves; it was chosen as the May cover photo for the annual CorrectCraftFan calendar:

This boat has a ton of sentimental value to me from all the memories made behind it. From skiing, wakeboarding and wakesurfing behind it, it was the crossover king of it’s day, performing well for everything. The engine has plenty of power to pull whatever you want to tie to the pylon. Would also be interested in trades for a V-drive boat in similar condition with cash added on my end.
History:
I purchased this boat about 4 years ago from an older gentleman down in North Carolina. He was selling it because he already had a 1970s Ski Nautique that did everything he needed. It was kept on his covered lift on a lake during the season and kept in his garage next to his 2 fully restored 1940s Ford pickup trucks in the offseason (just to put into perspective how meticulous he was about this boat). During my ownership the boat was always stored indoors in the offseason.
Upgrades:
