Nautique Announces Exciting New Partnership with Predator Bay Water Ski Club

ORLANDO, FL (November 19, 2025) – Nautique Boat Company is proud to announce an exciting new partnership with Predator Bay Water Ski Club, one of Canada’s premier destinations for competitive and recreational water skiing. 
 
Founded in 1997, Predator Bay Water Ski Club has built a reputation for creating a welcoming environment where skiers of all ages and abilities can come together to celebrate the joy of water skiing. Nestled alongside two of Canada’s most stunning man-made ski lakes, Predator Bay serves as a hub for both recreational and elite athletes, hosting prestigious national and international competitions that showcase top-tier talent and inspire future generations.
 
The meaningful history between Predator Bay and Nautique adds a special significance to this partnership. In 2009, Nautique, alongside the legendary Andy Mapple, unveiled the groundbreaking Ski Nautique 200 for the first time at Predator Bay. Since then, the club has continued to make history, successfully hosting three World Championships pulled by the record-breaking Ski Nautique, including the 2009 Open World Water Ski Championships, the 2024 Under 17 World Water Ski Championships, and the 2025 Under 17 World Water Ski Championships.
 
As part of this new collaboration, the Ski Nautique will now be the exclusive towboat at Predator Bay, further reinforcing the club’s commitment to excellence and world-class performance. In addition, Predator Bay will debut an exciting new event, the Rocky Mountain ProAm, in the upcoming 2026 season.

“The Predator Bay Water Ski Club is thrilled to announce a new partnership with Nautique and Wizard Lake Marine beginning in the 2026 season and beyond,” said Suzanne Velcic, President of Predator Bay Water Ski Club. “This exciting relationship will bring not only the latest Ski Nautique boats to Predator Bay but also the launch of a brand-new event - the Rocky Mountain Pro-Am. The overwhelming support and enthusiasm shown during the 2025 U21World Championships have inspired the club to keep pushing the sport forward.”

This partnership marks a meaningful step forward in the shared mission of both organizations: to grow three-event waterskiing, nurture the next generation of athletes, and empower skiers of all abilities to find passion in the sport while refining their skills to reach their greatest potential.
 
“Predator Bay Water Ski Club is a cornerstone of the water ski community, and we’re honored to join forces,” said Greg Meloon, President of Nautique Boat Company. “Together, we’re not just supporting today’s athletes - we’re investing in the future of the sport.”
