1999 Ski Nautique Open Bow 

PCM GT-40 310 HP Engine

Dorsey S/A Trailer


This 1999 Ski Nautique Open Bow was found down in Texas.  It had been underwater, and had a broken windshield.  We brought it in and completely restored it.  It was used for a while by my family, and then was sold to another family who has enjoyed it for years.
