1993 Ski Nautique
Alright guys, I know we all have our opinions but I need some brief information. I have a chance to pick up a 1993 Ski Nautiqe for $4,000. Long story but its a real deal. Boat is in excellent shape except the gel coat if faded. Thats not a big deal and a easy fix. I need to know what year Nautique switched to fiberglass stringers and what people think of the ski wake? This would just be a boat that would stay at the river house for friends and family to use. Even with that purpose, there are a few that would like to get good sets behind it. What are the flaws on this boat for this year?
Thanks, Taylor |

Can't remember but I don't think you want anything previous to the TSC-1 hull which was in the 90's. But I think it wasn't until the '97. Certainly could be wrong about that...

You are correct, Total Surface Control began in 1997. Sounds like a great deal.

Yea, I'd heard about the TSC-1 as a good wake but it's been a long time since my research. And I was more focused on the SN 206 and MC 205.
Does it still have a carb engine? Assume a Ford 351?? Obviously Eastie is the expert on SN's so hopefully he can shed some more light for you. Still sounds like a decent deal if it has a great ski wake!

Yes, 93 is the first year of no wood stringers. Good boat. Ski wake is fine. Little bit of a bump in the middle. Kind of firm, but nothing to sweat. Tracking will be rock solid. Standard gear reduction will make you happy, too. Wake isn't as good as a 97 forward TSC era boats, but a very good boat nonetheless.
A steal at $4,000 if you want to put the elbow grease into bringing the shine back.

I luv the reverse transom/step on those boats. One of my favorite CC models.
