Wave Enterprises Brings Nautique Boats to Market

Nick Bartelt has always been passionate about helping others discover and enjoy the water.

Bartelt, who was a professional water skier before becoming an operations manager with Kimberly-Clark, recently opened Wave Enterprises LLC in Rogers.

Bartelt said his goal is to give consumers a choice when it comes to ski boats and help them find the best choice and fit for all of their water needs.

Wave carries a full line of Nautiques and Supra ski and wakeboard boats and Manitou pontoon boats.

The store has about 20 new and used boating units on its lot. Prices for boats range from about $15,000 to $100,000.

Wave also has Reef swim and lake wear and a variety of inner tube models.

The store also carries both men’s and women’s wakeboards, wake surfers and wakeskates in a variety colors and sizes.

Bartelt said customers can also take advantage of the dealer’s maintenance and service center and any component required by the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary is available at the store.

The 2007 Northwest Arkansas Business Journal boat dealer list included eight dealers in Benton and Washington counties which had a combined stock of 420 boats.

The eight dealers reported a combined 2006 income of more than $40.1 million.
