Hi. <BR>I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with this boat or another Yamaha boat. I guess I'm wondering if it would be a good wakeboard boat. I'm upgrading from a bayliner, so anything should be better, but just wanting others opinions. <BR>Long story short. I can get it at dealer cost, otherwise I would look at other boats. I'm just not sure and can't test, have to special order. <BR>I just don't want to hear "don't do it buy a SAN" just cuz you own a SAN and like it. I'm interested in people who have experience with this type of boat. <BR>Thanks in helping me make this descision. <BR> <BR><a href="http://www.yamaha-motor.com/products/unitinfo/4/sbt/42/352/0/yamaha_ar230.aspx" target="_blank">http://www.yamaha-motor.com/products/unitinfo/4/sbt/42/352/0/yamaha_ar230.aspx</a>

Ok. False alarm. I found the archives search. Just found out there was one. I don't want to get slammed. I now understand it probably won't be worth it even with the good deal. <BR>I still suck, but I'm finally clearing the fins <IMG SRC="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":-)" BORDER=0> and hope to get better. Probably not going to get much better with that boat.

What price can you get? Is that the one with the twin jet drives?

yeah. I can get the AR 230 or the AR 230 high output <BR>Well actually I can get anything... just those were the 2 I was looking at.

I would not go with a jet under any situation. Looking at the picture it looks like the wake is all white water. Yuk!

We actually were being persuaded to buy one of these by a dealer who did not have our best interest at heart. Thankfully we listened to people who understand our sport and bought a Sanger.
