  • Looking to buy 99-02 Nautique

    Hey Guys,

    I’m new to this forum but I’ve always used it for information. I’m looking into making my first boat purchase and I was hoping I could get some questions answered or maybe someone on here is around my area and wanting to get rid of theirs. I’d like to stay at $20,000 or below. I have a few ads saved that I’ll post links to and was hoping some of you guys with more knowledge could check them out and give me an opinion. I’d like to surf mostly but also wakeboard. I’m located in Idaho but I’m willing to travel if the offers worth it. I keep getting told V drives are the way to go but I’m not totally sold plus a V drive Nautique for my price range is almost unheard of. So maybe you could fill me in on some things about the direct drives on these boats, if they’re still surfable without loading all of my seating up with fat sacs, etc. thanks!!

    If you want to surf follow the advice and get a V drive.

    You can surf a direct drive but you'll need more weight, the bags will be on seats and you ultimately can't add as much weight because the direct drives (at least with Nautique) have less freeboard.

    You can find V drives for under 20. Look for Super Sport Nautique's from 1995 and up. I recommend getting one with a tower. These are going to be much better then the DD's you posted.

    I've got a 1996 for sale for 17k but its on the other side of the country.
