I looked at this boat yesterday with 475 hrs on it and in really good shape. The interior is nice and has a cd player and 12" sub that sounds nice. It's close to my house and listed at $6900. Any thoughts? Good deal? Too small? This would be my first boat, and I want to add a tower and try wakeboarding. <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65921/612150.jpg" alt="Upload">

the only bad thing about those is that you can't add much ballast but if that's not something you're planning on doing then I'd say you found yourself a decent ride
|
I've heard of people being happy with the Comp as a wake-only boat, and I have heard of people putting weight in them, but you have to be careful. Personally I would keep looking for the SunSport.
|
check the floors and stringers. open bow makes a big difference.
|
I think the main problem they have with adding ballast in those boats is swamping (water coming up over the bow)
|
They throw a great wake with a 350 # bag on each side of the motor and 160-200 # in the bow and stern
|
I have a 92 comp and I love it
|
learned to run the bouys behind one of those <BR> <BR>great for that <BR>dont know about weighting it down <BR> <BR>I too would check under the floor before I bought it <BR> <BR>.... Supra disappeared for awhile because of the wooden stringers <BR> <BR> <BR>a comparable boat would be the Malibu 190 or 205 DD
|
aka Malibu skier or Sunsetter.....
|
i agree w/ jeff.....
|
i had a 92, boat was great very reliable. but as a wakeboard boat it sucked keep looking.
|
If you ride in calm water all the time, it should be great as they do throw a nice wake with some weight. <BR>But if you like to take a few friends & booze cruise when it's less than ideal conditions out, you run the risk of swamping the boat. Both the bow & the transom is really low, even compared to an older Prostar or Response.
|
It may not be great for wakeboarding without adding some weight.....but overall this was my favorite boat for rounding the bouys back in the day. I would love to have one just to play around with. Good luck in your search.
