you opened a can of worms here :-(

Everyone is going to have their own opinion. If you spend a lot of money on your boat, you are going to think it's best. All depends how you like to ride etc., there is no right or wrong answer.

i was just sayin cauz we might b getting a new boat

(canaday)

Malibus, Nautiques, and Mastercrafts are at least the most expensive, but they are all the best depending on what you are looking for. My fav is Nauti's because I get to ride behind them.

What are you looking for in a boat, then someone could probably give you a straight answer. Wake shape, uses (all wakeboard, 50% wakeboard, etc.), storage needs, size requirements, etc. are all key factors in the buying decision.

I also like Tammy and Cory's boat, Henry's boat, Jason and Stephanie's boat, Squid's boat (Though I have never really ridden behind it), Kaben's boat, Kimmy and John's boat, Joel's boat, Rod R's boat, Andrew's boat, oh and my boat too! I am sure there are more, but that's all I can drum up right now.

Kung Fu Wake is on to something here. It's all about the lead!

Mastercraft, Malibu's and Tiges are my fav's, IMO you can't charge the Air Nautique's wake the same way you can the others, but I quest it depends how you weight it. They're all really good boats

Yes All boats are the same caractéristique, but Mastercrafts are good.

Zodiac with a 9.5 hp outboard.......... if you feel like that is to much boat for you a Malibu, MC, or Nauti should work ok.

Im agreeing with what Shirows said. I think?

Same here. Shirows (and only Shirows) knows exactly what he's talking about.

all very wide open oppinions coming here but here are mine.they are so close hard to put them in any order

1.Wakesetter vlx one of the best versatile wakes with a competitive price thats why its first on my list.

1a.Mastercraft X2 OLd Xstar still in class with wakesetters and supras same great wake with decent pricing ..

1b.Supe air Nauti my favorite wake but boat is small for the price they ask for these things.

1c.Supra SSV has a nice wake, good price and options ,it can come with an adjustable wake plate,2600lbs of stock push button fill Gravity games upgraded optional ballast bags..this is probrably best deal in the market for over all value,room, and wake class..

you cant go wrong with either of the four just pick the dealer that is the best in your area and buy that boat,its usually about the dealer more then the boat with these four boats..If you buy a boat and the dealer is 60 miles from you and also not very prompt or detailed you are going to be unhappy with your purchase...

happy hunting..

In my opinion, these are the best boats to ride behind (in no particular order)

Steve Cowens Moomba
Jeff Frew's Nautique
Sean Jacksons' Nautique
Marty Terry's Supra Launch
Dave & Gina's Nautique
My brother in law's Tige
Jeff & Lara's Seaswirl.
And anybody else that invites me.

How's that for kissing up?? haha
