I'm looking for my next boat and have been trying to consider all my options, and trying to keep an eye on my budget as well.
I'm an intermediate rider (working on basic spins/inverts) and looking to progress to get those really dialed in.
Last boat was on '05 supra 22ssv, which i liked alot. Been riding a friends '10 malibu 23lsv the last couple years which is awesome too.
I am looking for a good allround boat, but use will be 75% wakeboarding 25% surfing. Then just hanging out with family/friends.
Wanted to get a really good predictable and known wake, so I can progress most easily. I had been considering the original Xstar(x2/x1), original SAN, <04 vlx or 05-09 vride.
I just came across this '04 xstar - higher hours ~650 which was a camp boat and in "decent" shape, but showing some age.
Is this a decent option to consider, also what would be considered a really good price to pick something like that up at?
I know the wakeboarding wake is supposed to be awesome, but how does it work for surfing and general driving around - you hear horror stories about how bad the xstars handle...?
Cheers!
