I have a 23 LSV and am considering a 247 is the wake that much bigger for Wake/Surfing? How does it handle compared to a 23? I don't usually have a lot of people with me, so is it worth it to get the bigger boat? Is the wake that much better?

i think that u should stick with the 2008 23 lsv it is easier to handle and u can wait it down better. ive ridden behind both and i like the 23 lsv a lot more

I don't want to weight the boat down though. What about the Wake size though?

Why would you not want to weight the boat down?

If you already have something and do not need the extra room, why take the depreciation and get something you don't really need. Keep the 23. In the long run I'm sure you'll be happier

The longer that I keep the boat obviously the more it depreciates, If I keep it any longer It would be impossible to get out of financially and into a new boat without any negative. Why would you not want to upgrade if you could walk away from your old boat and into a new one for a little bit of money? Plus have you seen the additions and options that they are offering. I love my boat now however, I like having a warranty and a new boat.

I'm confused... You say '08 LSV to '08 247. Both being '08s wouldn't they have the same options?

Keep in mind the big picture. With a new boat you'll once again have to pay taxes, license, etc. I'd stick with the LSV. If you don't want to add more weight the stock LSV wake will be bigger.

keep the 23. easy decision if you don't routinely have 8+ people in your boat. there's a handful of pro riders who swear by the sacked out wake of the 23lsv (lyman even spent his own money to buy one), so there's nothing you won't be able to do behind it, even with just stock weight.

Its an 05 23LSV that we have, so there are different options on the new 247. I just want to know on a stock 23LSV or stock 247....which wake is better?

"I just want to know on a stock 23LSV or stock 247....which wake is better?"

I'd say you're splitting hairs. I doubt you'd go noticeably bigger behind either one of them. If you want the 247, go for it, but don't make the decision based on the wake; both are world class.

I think that over Memorial weekend the Franco family needs to take yours truly on a little wakeboard ride. I'll even wake you guys up to get the butter. How does 5 am sound? Our house is on the AZ at the rock island above Big Bend. Roadrunner breakfast is on me.

the 08 23 is a better wake in my opinion id say you should test them both out and then make your decision
