The Super Air Nautique line-up of Nautique Boats is Correct Craft's crossover-wakeboarding focused model; the boat is outfitted for wakeboarding with a tower and ballast tanks from the factory. Furthermore, some air nautiques are in V-drive format, which creates a bigger wake for the rider. The first Air Nautique was built in 1997; it was built on the existing Sport Nautique Hull and had an automatic rear ballast system (Launch Control System or "LCS"). Other notable "landmarks" included Correct Craft's patented Flight Control Tower, which was essentially a modified fishing tower.[2] In 2019 Nautique released the Super Air Nautique Paragon, this new release is the most expensive boat Nautique has created.

In recent years, the Super Air Nautique has moved from being primarily for Wakeboarding but now also Wakesurfing. This has come with the addition of wake-plates located on the stern of the boat and ventilation systems that direct the exhaust into the propeller jet stream.[3] The new features that Nautique has added is known as the Nautique Surf System (NSS).[4]

Wake boarding

In 1997 Nautique introduced a new innovative hull design, and Total Surface Control. Introducing the first wakeboard specific boat, the Air Nautique offers a Flight Control Tower and internal ballast tanks as standard features for big air.[5]

Wake Surfing

In 2013 Nautique started shifting their Super Air Nautiques to gear towards Wake Surfers as well as wake boarders. 2013 Nautique introduced the (NSS).[5]

Nautique Surf System

The Nautique Surf System (NSS) consists of 3 major components: Ballast, Wake Plates,[6] and fresh air exhaust system.[7] The ballast tanks increase the weight of the boat while the wake plates redirect water to create a larger and smoother wave on one side of the boat.[4] The exhaust is pointed downward directly in the water path of the propeller, this sends the carbon monoxide exhaust far behind the surfer that is riding behind the boat.[8][9]

In Media

In July of 2019 Entrepreneur and social media "influencer" Kylie Jenner posted an Instagram photo of her on a Nautique Boat to her 140 million followers. CEO of Correct Craft Bill Yeargin said "I did a little google research and apparently Kylie charges $1 million for a social media posting and we got it for free. That was nice of her. It is exponentially beyond anything that has happened for our industry in social media before. We don't pay influncers to promote our brands so when one does just because they enjoy being on the boat the benefits to us are huge.[14] As of January 2020 the Jenner's post received 5,012,930 likes and 25,525 comments.
