What is a good thing to do when looking to spend $20,000 to $25,000 for a good wakeboard boat? My G/F and I were looking at a yamaha ar 210 but the whole jet boat thing has me worried.

Every one I talk to with "over-sized jets skis" hates them, especially for water sports. IMO go with a prop driven boat, preferably inboard. You will much happier long term. You can buy a really nice well equipted used boat for that kind of money. Most banks and credit unions have long term R.V. loans and the paments are very
reasonable. $220-$275 a month, so you can actually get a more expensive boat for less a month.
Come to think of it my boat is for sale;)
