I'm looking for a 2000 or newer boat mainly for wakeboarding but also enjoy skiing the course from time to time. Not sure if the SAN, Malibu VLX or others would work.

The only v drive i would look at now for skiing is the 211. I have a 210, but don't really do a lot of skiing now because the wake is just to big most of the time. I tested the 211, and the wake is much better. I just hate the look of the 211 though. My next boat will probably be a 216.

The X-2 sits on the 205 hull, which is AWSA approved. If you get two people in the boat and run at or above 32, the wake is non-existant.

Sanger V210. People have mentioned other boats. My dad has a Prostar 205 which is the X-2 but in a direct drive, he hates how big the ski wake is & it's not even a v-drive. The Centurion will get it done but the wakeboard wake sucks the big one, my roommate has one and I've got plenty of time on it & it is no bueno. The Sanger V210 however has a wakeboard wake to rival A Super Air and the ski wake is incredible. Take a look, you will be amazed.

Is your dad skiing at 28mph? I use to have a 205dd, and it threw a great wake for skiing. We generally run 34-36 in the course, maybe that is the difference.

Malibu Sunscape 21 LSV with ballast and wedge makes for the best crossover boat. V drive for wakeboarding but with a skier friendly hull design. Best of both worlds.

Just like a wakeboard wake, I'm sure a lot of this is preference. You favorite may not be someone elses favorite.

I will second what Big Heavy says, I have done both behind a V210 and it works well.

My dad skis at 34-35, not on the course. He says there is a depression in the wake where it dips down.

Big Heavy - What rope length is he using? 3 or 4 blade prop? We used to have a 97 205 and there is a difference in the wake between the two props.

This is all coming down to personal opinion. Go test drive the above mentioned boats and see what you like better.
