Yeah Wade. I stumbled on that announcement last night on McCalllums site. Not sure if they will be selling both Tige and CC. I went to the Nautique home page and entered various NH zip codes , and it only recommends McCallums as a NH dealer.
I'm sure there is an interesting story behind this.

I think that NECC is changing to be NE-Tige (??)

Now that would be amusing. Yeah, the NECC name no longer works so well if you're not selling Correct Crafts. I presume the ownership change at CC had something to do w/ it...since NECC has family ties to the Meloon family.
( I have an RLXi), but a couple friends are sheduled to drop their 196s off in Rochester for winterizing in a couple weeks.
Curious to see how it pans out. Nothing mentioned on NECC site.

I hear that McCallums was previously CC dealer many years back.

I wouldn't kid about such things!!

From what I have seen in the company. Correct craft will be around for about 3 more years before the deadly trio (Micheal yach, Bill Yeargin, and Daryl Doden) run the company into the ground. The company was much better off when the Malloon family was in control.

I saw at least a Super Air Nautique when driving by yesterday, only 8 miles up the road from me. Wonder if Pete will be getting the new 200?

THEY HAVE ARRIVED!!!
2010 Nautiques are here!

We are pleased to announce that we will be adding the Nautique model line-up to our current successful product lines in 2010.

Our goal in enhancing our current brands with Nautique is to become the premier watersports boat dealership in New England. This is fast breaking news, much, much more to follow. Visit www.nautique.com for detailed product/design and performance information!

Time will tell what would have been best for correct craft. Looks like the 200 will shake things up.

Also I've heard Correct Craft under their new management may sponsor the pro tour next year (at least one stop). I know that for me, a ski boat company's commitment to the sport is extremely important. I'm happy to hear CC will be stepping up theirs. We'll have to wait and see if they can follow through on it.
