Nautique Boats and the International Waterski & Wakeboard Federation have inked a 10-year extension of their partnership naming Nautique the exclusive boat of the 2016-2025 Water Ski World Championships.
The Ski Nautique is the official towboat of all IWWF-sanctioned Water Ski World Championships, including the World Water Ski Championships, World Junior Championships, World Under 21 Championships, World Over 35 Championships, World University Championships and World Disabled Championships.
“We are extremely excited to further our partnership with the IWWF and work together to promote water skiing at the highest level all over the globe,” said Greg Meloon, president of Orlando-based boat maker Nautique, in a prepared statement.
The 91-year-old Orlando-based Correct Craft owns Nautique Boat Co. Inc., Aktion Parks, Pleasurecraft Marine Engine Co., Bass Cat and Yar-Craft.
Last year it underwent an $8 million, 51,000-square-foot expansion of its world headquarters and manufacturing facility in southeast Orange County.
