5.0 liter engine? That might be a little weak if you weight it down. I'd get the Moomba.

i would go with the mobius...but seems a bit high.....alot more options that you will eventually want with the SAN if that is what you buy...ballast is #1 and alot of other things...plus u save 4k on the mobius compared to paying 4k more and then atleast 1-2k on the SAN that the mobius already has....thats a swing of possibly 10k...but if money is not a factor..do what u want to do

I also ask...are you sure its 33K for a brand new nautique? Any brand new 2003 or 04 nautique for 33k with even basic options sounds like a good deal. <BR> <BR>Also - SAN = Super Air Nautique, which is different than a ski nautique 206....fairly big price and performance diffrances. Probably could not buy a new SAN for anything less than 45K I would guess. <BR> <BR>You would probably want to add the tower to the 206....typically costs about 2100 to 2500 to add later and you would need to sack it up to get a large wake. <BR> <BR>Quality wise the nautique will be outstanding.

Only problem with the nautique is you said it had a 5.0 in it. Not much engine if your going to weight it. A new SAN "Super Air Nautique" will run over 50K. <BR> <BR>You might want to wait a while longer, Tige' is coming out with their new Switch lineup in a month or two. They will have a V-Drive, with 5.7 liter engine, Tower, Bimini, etc. for around $35K.

sorry it is not a super nautique it is just the 206 open bow ski nautique and just talked to the dealer it is $ 32.876.45 out the door brand new state fair special

I own a Moby, and I'd still go with the Nautique. <BR> <BR>The Mobius is a nice boat, but not in the same class as the Nautique as far as overall quality. <BR> <BR>Moomba-Honda <BR>Nautique-Porsche <BR> <BR>BTW, <BR>Don't listen to Jonathan. Anyone who would buy a lime green boat clearly has impaired judgment skills.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/lol.gif" border=0>

rock_n_boardin 08-28-2003 11:03 AM

You got that right LOL if you can get the nautique in lime green go for it <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/proud.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>

rock_n_boardin 08-28-2003 11:05 AM

Moomba-Honda <BR> <BR>Nautique-Porshe <BR> <BR>Lime Green Tige'-Formula One Race Car yeahhhhhh LOL

Gotta agree cliff. I've had 2 CC's and both were/are excellent. Building boats gave me a good perspective on quality and you can't go wrong w/CC. <BR>Todd, You'll love the wake for skiing and can add a bag/pump in the back and a pole for about $600 for the wife. <BR>5.0 will handle the job, barely. Don't know how big you are but it will grunt when pulling someone 200+ outta deep water skiing with a couple people in it. Spend a couple extra and go up to the 5.8 HO. Well worth the extra cash. Then again, if you're serious, go all the way and get the 206 air. <BR>MHO

Jonathon, Formula One Race Cars have to be rebuilt after each race. You're right on target with the comparison.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/biggrin.gif" border=0>
