I love mine, wouldn't trade it for anything but another X10!!! Great wake, great fit n' finish, lots of room/storage, handles great! I have gotten many compliments, and I do own the Maristar model, with the wakeboarding options. KG

If it is the same price for the maristar and the X10 definitly go with the X-10 hands down. Same boat except one looks 100x better and has all the options you will eventually want to add to the maristar.

Those new racks look huge. I also really like the mirror. Can the tower fold down with the mirror attached or do you have to remove it? Do you remove it when you travel?

Tower can fold down.....Although I have only had her for two days now and have not done it yet... I love the tower attached mirror too, very classy looking, I think the mirror part comes off for travel,,,,,,although my first trip i just spun it facing down so no bugs got on it, as i play with it more Ill let ya know how it works..........

That is sweet. I always thought all white boats looked like bayliners but that X-10 is nothing but class, very stylish.

How do people like the X10 vs. the old X Star or current X2? From what I understand, the X2 has a better wake, better tracking, and a better ski wake than the X10. However, the X10 has more onboard room, more storage, etc. Is this pretty accurate?

X-10 better ski wake, more room, more of a predictable wake is how I would describe it for boarding. The Xstar wake would be like riding a Byerly bigger pop vs X-10 wake like a Belmont, smoother more predictable. Depends on what you like. Both boats like weight so the more you ad the bigger they get.

I've recently had the opportunity to ride behind an '02 X-10 and it's a really nice ride. MAJOR space available, this one was rigged with all bells/whistles ('cept heat) and looks great! I regularly ride behind an '00 X (same hull as X-2) and the X-10 throws a softer and much wider wake than the X, but pretty nice size even with stock triple KGB. Some extra weight would probably make it even better and maybe firm it up some. I can't comment on its skiability since that's really not my schtick. I'm diggin the all white look, too!

Congrats Joseph. I got the tower mirror for my X2 and love it. I don't take the mirror off when towing it, I just flip it down like you said and it's fine. Very nice color. You will love the board racks. They work great.

After dropping her in the water a few times, I have to say I love this boat. Tons of room for the friends and family trips, great wake when out riding,the kids love the swim deck, wife loves the boat buddy on the trailer, no complaints at all so far. Still getting used to the size differential from my old wake have not even filled the ballast...The only improvements I would make are, towable cover, little tint on the window and getting my bimini in, its been hot here in nor cal recently and mastercraft is slow in shipping...

Throw a 550lb sack in the bow and the wake gets bigger, firmer, and steeper.
