SKI NAUTIQUE 196

THE ONE THAT STARTED IT ALL AND IS STILL PULLING AWAY!

The water is glass and you can’t wait. The air is warming up and so is the engine inside you, because this is no ordinary day and the Ski Nautique 196 is no ordinary boat.

 

From day one, the Ski Nautique 196, with closed bow and exclusive TSC3hull, set the standard by which all other ski boats are measured - in performance, handling and what is considered by tournament pros as the ideal wake.

 

The 196 is the Official Towboat for all IWSF World Water Ski Championships. And, thanks to the patented Hydro-Gatethat lets you change wake signature right from the cockpit, it is “the” true, hardcore three-event ski boat. One pass, one jump, one trick set and you know you’ll be able to do your best because you’re skiing behind the Ski Nautique 196, the boat that revolutionized the towboat industry, and is still pulling away.
