I can have one made at the factory for $3,750. Thats way more than I'm ready to spend. Hell I paid $5,000 for the whole thing a few years back.Engine and all. Any Ideas how or where I can find one besides the factory? Any and all suggestions welcome

Thanks
 
Capt. Pete,
I've the same model - 1995 vintage - I've had no luck finding an affordable tube....have you found anything since your original request for info.?

No bud. nothing. Mines usable . Just have to pump her up now and again. I'd sure hate to trash the hull cause it still solid as hell but .... I think I'm going to try reconditioning it myself. Coat it Paint it ... something.... Do a little research on whats best over winter and attempt it come spring... I'll be sure to let ya know how i made out. Thing that really pisses me off is my shrink wrapper for some unknown reason didnt include it in the wrap up as he has done every year before. We had a bad winter and it accelerated the wear big time. Stay safe and happy boating
 
Do not know about your boat but we have a 12.5 foot zodiac. I damaged the hull and the dealer was able to fix it. Iwas concerend with weight as we used to fly it and a 20HP to the artic. Yjeyfixed it and the new weight was lessthan 10 pounds more. In the shop they were fixing boats that looked like they should be scrapped. Their comment was we can fix most boats but if there is a lot of gas/oil spilt in it, it is more difficult. You might be able to get it fixed at an inflatable dealer in your area.

Our Noverania is still useable and safe....it is just looking it's age....I'd like a new one w/ a 4 stroker...but my wallet gets in the way. My dealer told me my replacement cost for the full package is about $20K.....he told me tube alone is over $6K.
I guess I'll just take good care of the old girl.....

I have a buddy that bought one of the Williams turbojet models a couple years ago. I think it's a 385? It absolutely flies and weighs less than 700 lbs if I remember right. Ride seemed a bit rough compared to his caribe. They're pretty pricey but quality seems very high. If he prices it right I might go for it. Been looking at caribes and nautica too. Silly things sure are expensive.
 
I like the Nautica as well. It's very surprising just how expensive the lil bastards are. Gotta have one though. I use mine constantly. I use mine like my dock neighbors use their golf carts.
 
Ok, just got a price on the novurania. I was wrong, its a 325 turbojet, 105 hp. He bought it new in '10. Still like new, two new canvas covers. $12k w trailer. Can't find a lot of comparables on the net but from what I can see this appears to be an exceptional deal. Im thinking about jumping on it. Anybody think different!
