so i've been mildly looking for a new boat, im not sick of my LSV, but i think it may be time...
i wanted to stay with something i can still afford. Originally i was looking at the possibility of upgrading to an XLV, but i really really dig boats w/ the snout front end, x-star, the new tige, tomcat, etc.
after realizing there is no possible way i could afford one of those, i came across the axis, now if i get really serious im def gonna goto a dealer (have 2, hr and half from me) and demo one. I've been a boat owner since 2004 (had the 04 LSV) and decided if i havent rode behind it before im not going in blind anymore.
info on my boat now: 06 Mobius LSV 350hrs, gravity games 3 bag ballast, heater, custom stereo (tower speakers, sub etc), bimini, racks, stock 325hp indmar, perfect pass, docking lights, pop cleats, stainless rub rail, and then all the standard options.
so with all that long winded stuff, i have 2 questions:
1. do you think getting a new A22 (i would probably get almost every option they have available) would be an upgrade, downgrade, or lateral move from my mobius.
2. what do you think i can get out of my boat now trade in? it was like 43k new in 06, its clean for the most part, major issues are the rubber pad under tower are starting to come out, small fiberglass crack where the tower folds down from the arm hitting it, and some scratches on the side from my brother not knowing how to park it in a hoist.
edit: a little more info, been riding since 04, im not a trick machine, i mold my riding after Keith Lyman w/ out the spins/flips, Best wakes i've ridden: 08 Xstar fully loaded (love the drive of it when driving) 03 Malibu VLX and i do like my wake when i fill it up and add a 500lb center bag on top, its just so weight sensitive.
