UHHH, Flightcraft was owned by the same owner as Wakecraft. He sold it to Malibu.

That is my favorite looking boat of all time. The ultimate in cali style, which is out of style now.

a little history and why i want one....

Although Flightcraft founder David Telling launched his boatbuilding career in 1969, the Flightcraft success story stepped up a peg in the late 1980s with the birth of the XLT. By the time the company started exporting Flightcraft to the USA and Canada in the mid-'80s, it was producing the world-class tournament 18 XLT skiboat and setting new standards on the Australian competition circuit.

In fact, the XLT was the first Australian-built boat to receive AWSA certification, Melbourne distributor Peter Kent from Regal Marine says. It was also a regular official Moomba Masters and AWSA barefoot tow boat and has a string of slalom, jump, trick and barefoot titles with both outboard and inboard versions of the craft.

Someone else was using the mold out here in california for a while after Flightcraft was swallowed up by Malibu. Malibu made the DD version for a while, then dropped it and only made the OB. When they stopped making it, some else was making the same boat for a few years. Can't remember the name of the maker or boat.

Someone said there Moomba looks just like a Flightcraft??? My friend, stated by someone that has never actually seen a Flightcraft

That hull also has a great wake for that size boat when loaded. Sits real low in the water though. Our ski club had 2 21xlts back in the day.
