um 28,500 sounds pretty reasonalble... one thing about the PAN's though, i hear that they suck down the gass when weighed, due to the TWC hull....

Do you know how much the stock ballast is?

I think it is about 600 lbs. Even with that the wake is really small. Get ready to start filling up some fat sacks

I just bought a 1999 Air (not a Pro) Natique from a Nautique dealer. I think mine is a foot shorter and has a different hull then the Pro but thought I'd give you my facts vs opinion. I paid $23,500 for all that is detailed below:

- 140 hours
- GT 40 (310 HP) - everyone I spoke with said that this was the engine to go with - 1,000+ hours before it needs any work other then general maintenance
- added perfect pass digital wake pro
- new depth sounder
- new Pioneer stereo head and 12 disk changer
- custom cover
- Bimini top
- No rips or stains, a couple of small scratches
- Stock balast - 400 lbs - throws a good wake with tanks full and another 800 lbs of people and gear. If you don't have enough riders a fat sack in the ski locker would be a good addition.

FYI, I've seen other postings saying that the they suck fuel. We put in between 6 and 7 hours of wakeboarding this week-end and it sucked 18 gallons so not sure how that compares. It's not much different then our 190 hp stern drive.

Hope it helps. Check out boat trader or other websites. Dealers will deliver nationwide - for a small fee of course.

the Air and the Pro Air are the same legnth, pro air has pockets in the back that suck the rear end of the boat down. and although that is a big difference (the hulls) they are same othor than the hull and graphics....

i think that sounds about right maybe a little less than 28,500
