That is the newest used boat you will find.  The thing looks brand new sitting there and you cannot tell it is 15 years old.  Congrats!

I think he said it is a 2011. Or are you talking about that model prostar being first introduced in 2002 IIRC?

I believe you are correct.. I misread it originally.  Nonetheless, it is beautiful.

Yes, it is 2011...but it does look like new.  Previous owner never put the seats in.  I actually unwrapped the rear bench seat - was still in the factory plastic.  The bow cushions were stored as well.  I have only found one scratch in the gel - about an inch long down low on the hull.  He even put that clear bra on the rear corners, where the rope tends to rub, so there wouldn't be any scratches.  The OCD was strong with the previous owner... haha

The MC 197 was and still is one of the best looking ski boats ever.

Taken from the Lake Oauchita Dam. No the boat isn't hitting the stump. LOL!

Last vacation night at the lake house . . . Drive tomorrow and back to work on Monday.

Beautiful boat, would you mind confirming your exterior colors, namely the flake?  Is that machine silver or charcoal metallic?  Also, is the red Indy?  Thank you!

I believe I know where this boat came from...  I saw it once and loved the looks of it then.  Congrats!

[Wake1977]

If I was a betting man I bet you saw it around Evansville, IN...LOL...I have returned it to its original home state

Not the best photo, but I don't care since it is April and I am in my favorite lake.

That's a pretty boat.  I love the metallic shine off the water. 

 

On another note.  Sparkles is the name of my recently deceased cat.  Never let the kids name animals!  First choice for my daughter (who was 3 at the time) was broccoli!  GO run around the neighborhood at night looking for an escaped kitten.  Up and down the alley I went hollering Sparkles!

I see you're in Boise, too. Where did you launch? Took a drive out to Lucky Peak and it is incredibly low. Good looking boat!

Thank you.  We almost always launch at the Caldwell (west) ramp.  I haven't even looked at LP yet.  Wayyyyy to much debris coming down. 

Have you seen the Boise thread?  There is also a FB page for the Treasure Valley.  Search treasure valley wakesurfers.

Really like your color scheme... very sharp!
