buddy is looking at a boat and wanted to see how good of a wakeboard wake a 96 sunsetter would put up. It has wedge on it and would have some fat sacs in it. Also if it is well taken care of are they pretty reliable boats?
|
Is it a VLX? if so I had a 98 sunsetter vlx that I believe has the same hull as that boat and it put out a great wake. I didn't have the wedge just loaded it down with sacks.
|
not the vlx. sorry it is a DD
|
Good boat, good wake potential. <BR> <BR>Same hull (SV23 Wake) as the current I-Ride with a different deck.
|
o ok....any mechanical problems?
|
I have that exact boat, runs great w/no problems. I have the wedge and run about 1200lbs of ballast. <BR> <BR>Here are some pics of the surf wake, sorry don't have regular pics of the wake. Its a nice solid wake, but its pretty wide compared to my buddies XStar. <BR> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65921/452453.jpg" alt="Upload"> <BR> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65921/452454.jpg" alt="Upload">

thanks

I have a 95. Same boat as the 96. It is a great boat. Definitly Malibu's longest running hull (since you can still get it). <BR> <BR>It throws a great wake with about 6-7 people and the wedge, plus no floor space is taken up with sacks. <BR> <BR>Surf wake is great also. I run the slalom course in mine from time to time as well. <BR> <BR>Good all-around boat. Probably one of the better D-Drive wake boats...
