This 1989 Correct Craft Ski Nautique 2001 was purchased new by the seller’s father and was acquired by the seller in 2010. The fiberglass hull is finished in white with teal and red accents, and power is provided by a 351ci Pleasurecraft Marine (PCM) V8 paired with a PCM forward-reverse transmission. The boat was stored from 1996 until a 2023 recommissioning that included rebuilding the carburetor, overhauling the fuel and ignition systems, and refurbishing the included single-axle trailer with replacement tires and brake components. The boat is equipped with a teak swim platform, a ski pylon, a Sony cassette stereo, and white vinyl seating with teal and red stripes. This Ski Nautique is now offered at no reserve in Ontario, Canada, with a single-axle trailer, a boat cover, a set of decals, removed parts, manuals, a Pleasure Craft License in the seller’s name for the boat, and Ontario registration in the seller’s name for the trailer.
The 18’9″ fiberglass hull is finished in white with teal and red accents. Features include a teak swim platform, a black-framed windshield, a rub rail, and transom lifting rings. The seller notes fading on the teal portion of the gelcoat along with two areas of spider cracks on the lower transom.
The cockpit houses a starboard bucket seat, a rear-facing port observer seat, and an aft bench upholstered in white vinyl accented by teal and red stripes. Teal carpeting covers the floor, and wood trim accents the gunwales. Additional amenities include a center-mounted ski pylon, cupholders, and a Sony XR-6000 cassette stereo housed behind a clear splash cover.
The starboard helm features a three-spoke steering wheel that sits ahead of a centrally mounted VDO 6k-rpm tachometer flanked by twin Airguide 50-mph speedometers. Auxiliary VDO instrumentation includes an analog clock alongside gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, voltage, and fuel level. The hour meter shows 173 hours of runtime, approximately 10 of which were added by the seller following the 2023 recommissioning.
The 351ci PCM V8 was recommissioned in 2023 with work that included installing an Edelbrock Performer intake manifold with a 1″ phenolic spacer and an MSD 6M-AL ignition system. The carburetor was also rebuilt, the fuel tank was drained, and the oil was changed. Additional replacement components installed at that time included:
- Fuel pump and lines
- Water lines
- Ignition coil and ballast resistor
- Distributor cap, rotor, spark plugs, and wires
- Accessory belts
- Battery
- Water pump impeller
The seller notes that the engine was pickled at the end of the 2024 season and remains winterized. An hand-written summary of the service can be viewed in the gallery below.
Power is sent to the three-blade bronze propeller through a PCM 40-Series forward-reverse transmission.
The single-axle drive on/drive off trailer is finished in black with Ski Nautique graphics and is equipped with carpeted bunks, a rolling tongue jack, and guide poles. Service in 2023 included powder-coating the wheels, mounting replacement Carlisle Radial Trail tires, and replacing the wheel bearings, brake assemblies, brake lines, surge brake coupler, LED lighting, and guide pole covers. The seller notes areas of rust on the trailer, photos of which can be viewed in the gallery below.
The boat and trailer are being sold on a Pleasure Craft License and an Ontario registration, respectively, which serve as ownership documentation in Ontario, Canada.
