My parents had Nautiques when I was growing up. Now I just bought my first Nautique, it's a 1995 196 with the pcm. I really appreciate all the info your putting up and your videos are great to watch. Just wanted to say thank you and keep it up! Wish I had watched this video before I bought mine lol I missed a few things.

what about motor hours? how do you determine the useful life...50 hours vs 300 hours? Obviously 50 is still new...

CluEngineer - 6 years ago

Most engines will go around 2000 hours. I would purchase one below 1200 Max. Preferably under 700 hours for me. We purchased this boat with 59 hours 5 years ago.

CluEngineer - 6 years ago

RiverRuns NC good question. If a boat is 20 years old you may prefer to have more hours than less since it shows they used it and instead of it just sitting all year. This particular boat had 160 hours on it a couple of years ago when we bought it. It wasn't registered the last five years he owned it. So we had to make sure everything still worked and in good shape.

Thanks a lot!!!!

CluEngineer - 7 years ago

Good Luck. I hope your first boat purchase will be a great one. If you have any more questions let me know!

Helpful video! What lake are you on?

CluEngineer - 6 years ago

Dylan Juhnke thank you. It's called pine mountain lake!

John C. - 7 years ago

Enjoy your videos! Quick question, do you still have the 09 Wakesetter as well as the 99 Nautique?

CluEngineer - 7 years ago

John C. Thanks for asking that great question. I'm actually skiing through the slalom course at 36mph at 22off so we ended up purchasing a ski boat to help me get even better. We sold the malibu. It was my idea because it was a lot to handle and keep up with. The nautique is super easy to take care off.

CluEngineer - 7 years ago

You are welcome bro

Matt Larsen - 7 years ago

Hey Justin, just wanted to say your videos about your Ski Nautique are extremely helpful! I just sold my old Seadoo boat and bought a 2000 Sport Nautique with the GT40 engine, so hopefully I'll be able to make a decent GoPro edit at the end of this summer. I've been around boats all my life but have never driven one as difficult as an inboard. Think you could make a video about driving tips for inboard boats?

Keep up the good work!

Matt

CluEngineer - 7 years ago

Hey Matt, check out the new video! It is all about how to drive an inboard boat. I am also working on a docking and trailering video. Here it is!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amC4io8tFdM&lc=z12cip4b3mnauxupc04cfdixcvqlsxkyxdw

Matt Larsen - 7 years ago

CluEngineer awesome thanks! Looking forward to it!

CluEngineer - 7 years ago

Hey Matt, Thank you for the positive vibes. I definitely can make a video on that. These particular Nautiques are very hard to drive at slow speeds so a video may help! I am actually going on the water this weekend and I will film a video for you on how to drive an inboard. Your Sport Nautique with the GT-40 is a great setup by the way!!
Stay tuned for next Wednesday!
