My husband and I have been lurking on the board for some time now trying to learn what we can about the Nautique. We just took up wake boarding last summer and had a blast. We want to start surfing so we traded in our Four Winns bow-rider for our first Nautique. We are excited and will be picking it up next week when my husband gets back from his trip. After a lot of reading I am hoping the 210 is big enough for us. :/ I think it is just the nerves of the big purchase. We will be keeping the boat on the water at our camp so we will not need a lot of room for storage. Our bow-rider was our first boat and only 19'. I will say the low bow on the front will take some getting used to, but we are really looking forward to the cruise control- it was impossible to get a constant speed last summer!

Looks awesome! About the low bow, just keep eyes open when crossing wakes at low speed and give it a bump of throttle to crest over if required. You'll find pulling someone on a board so much easier with a dedicated tow boat. Enjoy the crap out of it!!Current : 2000 Pro Air Nautique, Silver&Black accents, pulled by 2012 black Chevy Tahoe

I'm sure this boat will end a lot of little arguments my husband and I had on the water last summer about speed consistency.Originally posted by DLafont View PostLooks awesome!

The test drive was over whelming- so much to learn about the boat!

Congrats! It is beautiful. My wife and I got a long a LOT better on the boat after we got a 'real' towboat.
Keep in mind what Jules210 said. These towboats drop the nose a bit more than more traditional deep V runabouts when you pull off the throttle. Just keep a little throttle on when crossing wakes.

That is awesome! We did the exact same thing this past season coming from an H200 Four Winns that I had modified as much as possible to be a wake boarding boat. Now enjoying a 210 also and loving every minute of it! Have a great season!
