1978 MasterCraft Prostar 190 Stars and Stripes

This classic Prostar 190 Stars and Stripes brings back the golden era of three-event skiing with a hull that still throws a clean, soft wake at slalom speeds. The low-slung profile and direct-drive layout give the driver a tight, connected feel to the water, while skiers enjoy that trademark tracking and predictable pull. The open bow deck leaves plenty of space on the teak platform and in the cockpit for gear and guests, and the simple analog dash keeps everything intuitive and reliable. With its iconic gelcoat scheme and timeless lines, it’s the kind of boat that turns heads at the ramp and earns nods from old-school tournament skiers.

A Prostar 190 Stars and Stripes shines on protected waters where tight turns, course runs, and early-morning glass are part of the routine. Its compact size makes it easy to trailer to different lakes, slip into smaller docks, and maneuver in narrow channels. The direct-drive configuration delivers precise handling for pulling slalom, trick, or barefoot sets, while the efficient hull helps keep fuel use in check during long days on the water. For local owners who value classic craftsmanship, easy maintenance, and a revered ski pedigree, this vintage Prostar is a smart, practical match for nearby lakes and rivers.
