We wanted TE 210
TE = Team Edition
210 = Air 210

but the 210 was gone = ) so we had to take the 211, and yes it is dope color Rolling Eyes

what kind of trailer is that? Looks like the prop would get banged up alot but maybe not?

I'm gonna assume that light bar slides in after you load the boat or something. I do got one question though where are you located at, Australia? If you are in Australia how come most people tow their boat with a car (at least what I have seen)? Do they not make many trucks down there or something? But, anyways, NICE BOAT!!!!!!!!!

Doesn't look like Ausy to me, somewhere in europe by the looks of the signage in the back ground. In Ausy & NZ trucks are very uncommon & expensive, most people tow with cars or Japanese 4x4, Nissan Patrols etc.

Daniel is from Germany. Nautiques don't come with a "Standard" trailer. CC doesn't make trailers like MC does, so the trailer depends on who the dealer has contracted with.

Yeah, trucks down here are about $80,000+. It seems stupid to get a truck, especially when utes or small 4x4's are all you need.
That said, It's a lot more fun towing with a V8 Powerstroke F250.

there is no need for an SUV or another towing-vehicle ... the mercedes pulls the whole rig perfectly ...

Very nice boat. And I must say that is a nice car, too.

You may not need a truck, but towing a nice boat like that with a wagon would get you shot around these parts....

Nice boat....

PEACE

Gobig, sweet ride. I wish we had easy access to SAN'sin aus. Most people in australia tow their boats with cars because you dont need a truck to tow them. I have more power and better towing aibility with my car than most trucks. the only thing i dont have is four wheel drive and i havnt even looked like needing that yet. I can pull our boat out with full ballast no worries ) total boat weight with ballast is around 5400lbs.

I am in the market for a VLX or something of equivalent siza and i was wonderin about what im gonna need to tow it? they are pretty huge im sure i will need a bigger car cos i only have a 4 cylinder 4WD at the moment, what will i need??

I wasnt dissing you gobig, I was just curious. The only thing that would scare me is the susupension. But, maybe they make it stronger for these exact situations in europe and Australia. thanks for than answers

Skwake, Why not get a new falcon or comodore with the tow pack they are each rated at 2100 kg towing capicity i have seen many of them pulling big boats. Or look in 4x4 trader there are many cheap 4x4,s in there that will pull a VLX on their heads.Most of them will have never of been of road or done any real work so they should be in ok condition.

gobig - nice rig, nice country. is that lot w/ the boats the dealer u bought from? looks like a store / hotel smak in the middle of the mountains.

thx on that deay we picked up the boat we, where very surprised cause another guy from Hamburg (we live around there too) picked up his new Nautique too. there are not much nautiques in germany, in hamburg you can count them on two hands or so. Puppy Eyes

thats a store of our dealer, he sells wakeboardstuff and a few other fitness things in his store and of course Nautiques Smile

He is the only Nautique-Dealer in Germany
