1989 18CSS available late 1989 ...



1990 18CSS ...



No 18CSS in 1991, just the 16 & 19 CSS's ...



The 18CSS was back in 1992 ...





I don't have a 1993 brochure ...

I'd be proudly posting myself as the new owner of the Ski Machine if it was down here in my region of the country. I'd love to get my hands on one of those. I've heard there is one in the Austin area that was for sale a coupe of years ago. I've seen one in Florida about 5 years ago. All original with a 225 Venom Johnson turning a big Raker. Guy stated it pushed the needle to 75 - 78 on good water. You figure the speedo may be off by 5 mph.

It has the captains chair and rear facing bench type seat and what I would call, buckets in the rear with  a center console. I think they sweet! The cockpit is one of the things I like best about them. If I was going to buy a CSS, it would be an I/O but thats me. They seem small inside.
It looks so good, I'd swear the gel was reshot but if it truly is original, it is Very nice!

Sadly the only CVX20 I've ever seen in person was the white one that had the engine fire. (Trying to find the pics.) Those poor sobs. Had a engine fire, got towed in. Tied up at the north jetty fish camp. (Not the best place to tie off.) Then got literally pulverized against the dock by a passing big boat. It was definitely not their day.

For me the CSSs are a lil too 'euro' looking. No offense!

If only they had any idea just how hard it is for us canvas folk to cover all that 'sculpted' sh*t ...?
