Wanna Be Wakeboats

260searay 08-14-2005, 11:46 AM

I want to see some pics of other guys who dont have wakeboats. I love my boat because my lake is rough a lot and i can take trips on it. I started getting into wakeboarding and have to make the best of what i got. The wake isnt all that great but it is a lot better since i put the tower on it.

adding a tower will not change the wake of the boat one bit.

i think he means that the tower helps him a bit more, even though the wake hasnt changed

Wow Chris, put 4 or 5 waterbed mattresses in there and you might make some wake.

propayne 08-15-2005, 8:20 AM

CWBrider16...... what kind of tower does your Ski Supreme have... I think your ride looks really 'clean'.

its a Monster Tower. We're planning on adding racks and a bimini once we finish redoing the floor.

Hey Mikeyt, nice wannabe! Looks pretty legit to me, open bow, tower, inboard. Pontoon - absolute wannabe, that thing is funny. With those colors, you'd figure the guy riding behind it would have a hot pink and powder blue Body Glove wetsuit, and be riding a Skurfer!

That 26 searay is probably a nice boat, don't know how easy it would be to board behind.

I rode past an I/O Pontoon-Deck boat this weekend. It was going a bout 12 - 15 MPH and made a huge wake, I couln't belive it.

The wake would be a bit wide to jump but it was impressive.

260searay 08-15-2005, 5:28 PM

It has a washy wake, but it can also go 60miles across lake erie in 8ft. rollers and not sink so i am happy and i will be able to go plenty big once i get better.

1991 Bayliner 20ft. Works decent when weighted correctly. Some of us have to do our best w/ what we have! This will work until I can afford a $40k wake boat!

My first boat was a Chaparral 19' I/O with a custom made roll bar. Weighed it down with waterbed tubes from wal-mart and added a 4 blade SS prop. Did the job just fine til I could afford a better boat.

'86 Glassport 165RX. I paid $1000 for the boat, and $270 for the tower.

Here is mine 98 chap we load it down with 1600lbs and crank the tunes

This is beautiful. I love how people make the best of what they have, and of course have an awesome time. Its great to see how folks with these boats often throw down better tricks than people with the new, super expensive wakeboats... (of course not all the time, but I've observed it plenty). Whatever, just have fun :-)

yay

Remember when you saw a tower on a boat and you got to see a sick ass rider behind it?? Now they pull tubes with em... sad.

Early 70's 15 foot Anchor Industries Bowrider,Afraid to install a tower cause I think the gunnel would rip right off the hull.Cheap On gas though

James my first boat was a 16' conroy (similar to glastron) and i just had an extended pylon on it. It was just a taller version of what you have. There are boards racks and speakers that fit on them.
