Research 2010 - Mastercraft Boats - ProStar 197

Beyond comfort, styling and power, the ProStar 197 might be the best competition towboat ever. It's the only boat ever certified for all five USA Water Ski events. It has pulled the current slalom world record of 1 1/2 at 43 off and is the official tow boat of the U.S. Open of Waterskiing. Based on the premise that flat and soft wakes, unwavering pulls and perfectly straight boat paths inevitably lead to skiing success, it's no wonder that when you have only a few chances in your career to be at your best, youll depend on this boat to get you there. The 197 is so capable, it makes skiers of any ability immediately better.
