Observations of the hot central star (HD 200516) of the planetary nebula NGC 7009 were obtained with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) satellite, providing spectra covering 905-1187 Å with spectral resolution of 15 km/sec. One observation was made with the 30x30 arcsec aperture and includes the star plus the entire nebula. A second series of observations used the 1.25x20 arcsec slit, significantly reducing the nebular 'contamination' of the stellar spectrum. A strong FUV continuum, as expected for Teff=82,000 K, dominates the spectrum. The most prominent spectral feature is a very strong P-Cygni profile of O VI 1032-1038. The wind terminal velocity is 2550 km/sec. The only other wind lines in the FUSE spectrum are S VI 944, 933. These line, plus N V 1240 and O V 1371 from IUE spectra, were modeled with an SEI code. Models of the wind lines and stellar spectrum are presented that further refine the stellar parameters and mass loss rate.
