awsome boat! good motor(mine currently has 297 hrs, no problems). throws a sick wake! the cons to the Air/Sport Nautiques are the seating and storage, if you reely want to get the boat sacked out you will probably want to put sacs on the sides of the engine. it will be fine though, othor than that the pros to it is decent fuel econmy. IMO one of the nicest boats manufacured.

so pros: awsome wake, engine, finsh and build.

cons: the only con i can think of would be space.... even that isnt to big of a deal...


so good times!

The Pro air is a direct drive boat, the Super Air is V-drive. Either one is a great boat. For handling a drivablility the Pro is a little more agile, but for overall wake size and shape I like the Super. The engine shouldn't give you any problems provided it's been maintained. Should be enough power to pull the boat and alot of extra weight/people.

The Pro Air is a DD, but has the TWC (Total Wake Control) Hull. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that hull was made for only a few years. My buddy has a 99 Pro Air, and I love the wake. It doesn't take a bunch of weight to get big, and the shape suits me just fine. Provided the boat has been maintained well, you shouldn't have problems with the GT-40.
