Im looking into getting an inexpensive wake boat. I know that the master craft 190 isnt the best choice for wake boarding, but is it still better than getting an I\O. <BR> <BR>Thanks in advance for any help.

That really depends on a lot of things. A PS190 is a pretty small boat (especially if its closed bow) if you typically ride with 5 or more people thats pretty tight. If you get an I/O with a V8, tower, a fat sack or two, you can have a nice wakeboarding boat. There are ups and down to each kind of boat, but you can get a lot more boat for your money with an I/O. If all you want to do is board a little, hang out with friends/family, tube, cruise, etc... an I/O would be just fine.
