Just went up to lakeport and tryed out the FX22 with Hillside honda marine..travis let me see what it could do and let me tell u ,it makes a huge wake..
Wake looks great. Not a fan of the shape of the boat. I'm not a huge fan of the pickle fork even though I own one, but I like that square front even less.
stock and 2000 pounds..not as good as mine yet but big,.if I get one and dial it in there wont ever be a bigger wake,it sits high out off the water best hull design yet ..I only got to play with it for 2 hours..
The step over cooler is actually a structural design, it gives the hull so much more rigidity, and reduces flex vs other designs. Plus it is handy to have a small cooler right there!
I always thought the step over cooler was stupid too, until I actually tried it in a friends boat. Now I think it's crazy not to have it there. I never have to ask anyone to stand up to get a drink and I can access it from the driver's seat without even standing up.
