Super Air Nautique 2011 210 team Downunder!

[Careless]

Hello everyone here is some pics of our week old 210 Masters Blue with black.

Only just finished running her in and I must say we are extremely happy with it! Can't wait to load it up!

SWEET! I love the new griffen. Is the trailer made locally or does it come with the boat?

[wake_fun]

Nice!!!!!!!!!

[Careless]

Nautiquehunter: The trailer is an american made Boatmate trailer, we have very strict regulations over here with regards to trailers and their widths and brakes and so on. So they're pretty much custom made for the Nautiques that head to Australia. Locally made trailers are much more expensive over here for some reason.

That is an AWESOME boat. I really like those colors with everything matching!

What are the big Chromax letters in front of the griffin logo?

[Gasman87]

Wow

I have one word .....WOW..WOW..WOW !!!! Very sick,congrats !!!! My wife and i are booking our fights as i type , see you this weekend ;-)

[Careless]

AllianceBJJ; those letters are the rego numbers, they're actually laser cut stainless steel in the same font as the super air nautique down the side. Unfortunately in Aust on a speed boat your rego has to be 200mm high or just under 8 inches. At some of the places we board the water police sit at the boat ramp and while checking your boat for all necessary safety gear they will actually measure your rego!!!!! those letters are actually 180mm but I refused to make them any bigger

GasMan87 I'm actually flying to your neck of the woods this w/end. Land in L.A on monday there for a few days then head to Vegas for a few, then up to Whistler for some snowboarding. 12 Aussies blokes on a "mancation" should be good fun!
So I'll just leave you the keys to the shed to get the boat out, they'll be under the big brown rock....

Sweet.

Picture 584 looks like she's in "makeup" and just about to go on stage for the big show.

PS - since when is a 210 a "speed boat" ??

[Careless]

Yep pic 584 she was just getting hear nose powdered, after a long trip over from the USA.

I'm sorry yes I should heave put speed boat in quotations "Speed boat" as thats what the water police would call it. Or "recreational ship under 8m"

[DALTONHOUSE]

Looks tops Careless, truly one of the best 210's I've seen. I do reckon the 200m rule for rego stickers sucks. Not that yours looks bad, it's just they aren't really needed and it's just a dumb law. I actually don't know the exact height of mine, but I reckon they would only be 125mm and I have never had an issue with the waterways (in NSW though)

Anyway top boat mate and nothing but good times ahead.

Cheers

fighting to see who gets to go first???

Does that Master's Blue color look metallic or is it a solid color? Got any close up pics of that color?

[Careless]

Masters blue is definitely a solid colour (non metallic). Although everyone's reaction that has seen the photos then sees the boat in person says "wow it looks a lot different to the photo's." It's as though the blue changes a little bit in different light, don't ask me how but it does.

I have a question for everyone. We will be putting the fly high piggy back ballast in, I'm thinking I like the idea of the arrow sack for the front ski locker rather than under the bow seats but is it worth the extra cost? Also I've been told the arrow one has trouble emptying, is this true? Maybe I should put this in a different thread?

Not to mention the quality of the Aussie traliers in my opinion are nowhere near the standard of the Boatmate traliers.. The Australian tralier axles are to far forward & the suspension set up is terrible. I know of two seperate 210's that have flipped off Australian made traliers while been towed on a highway..
