Old     (monstertower)      Join Date: Mar 2003       06-07-2003, 9:28 PM Reply   
I'm ready to sell the outboard and get a real wakeboard boat and it’s time to start looking. With three boys, friends and freeloaders I need a larger boat and would love any recommendations. I can't swing a new boat so I’m looking in the 2-4 year old range for a "previously pre-enjoyed" boat.

I'd prefer a V-drive because of the extra room but I'm not opposed to a direct drive. I would greatly prefer one without a tower and many of the "Wakeboard Editions" were the same as a different model that did not come with the ballasts, tower, PP, etc. Looking for ideas for the model boats that did not come standard with a tower (I know where I can get a great deal on a Monster Tower). Depending on what I can get for my boat and what my accounting will let me do (and Monster Tower needs and official tow & show boat) I should be able to spend towards $30K.

Here is what is on my "Hunting List" and I am looking for input on boats to add or remove.

Malibu Wakesetters and Sunsetters
Malibu Sunscape 25' (probably out of the price range)
Centurion Avalanche or Typhoon
Supra Santara or SSV
MasterCraft Maristar 225 or 230
Correct Craft Super Sport Nautique

If it was an outboard I'd just take my trusty compression gauge with me to check the motor, check the lower unit for water and the transom for play. Not sure of the critical things to check on a V-drive or inboard so any tips on what to check out well would be greatly appreciated as well.
