2006 AIR 210 Team Rebuild

[haven_snickers]

Hi all,

First post, but have been lurking for a while.

Will start this thread as a place to document the rebuild of our 210. Had since new and was delivered Christmas 2005. Was always a dream to own an OG 210 growing up wakeboarding so we pulled the trigger once Nautiques announced its final production year. Lots of great memories, and many more to come. Co-owned with my brother, and he is the chief in this project. I’m just the cheap labour.

Last day on the water before bringing home for the rebuild. Size difference to the new era of wake ship’s is huge.

What a beautiful looking OG sitting on a nice Easytow trailer... looking forward to the build updates.. Reach out mate if you need any help have a fair amount of experience with these era of Nautiques here in Australia. This is us: https://www.inlandmarine.com.au/blog

Thanks mate, yes I’ll reach out when I need some goodies. Got my eye on a few things already.

Regarding the Easytow trailer. Yeah nah! It never did the boat justice and we’ll need to pump some serious money and effort into to get it up to spec.

We’re OG purist’s so keeping the original look and feel is top priority. However there are some planned improvements. Replace carpet with non-skid as the carpet has perished and just pulls out. The 06 model year, the vinyl wasn’t great like 2000-2003 era. So will get a retrim in ultra premium vinyl with some adjustments to things like the bolster/coming pads.
We also plan to extend the wrap around rear seating to behind the drivers seat. Again similar to a 2000 model.

Undecided on the hull side graphics, will probably have something made up similar to what’s on it or possibly 2003 style from domed numbers.

Engine has 1000 hours and has some rust which will need cleaning up, but runs great so just some cosmetic things to tidy up. It does have an oil leak which will need attending to. Also the v-drive seals are likely shot as the oil turns to a milkshake.

Overall the boat is in excellent shape and a good starting point.
