Man I really thought the new xstar was an ugly boat but it's grown on me. It actually looks good really like that one mike posted with the wrap. The bow is sweet love the functionality.

TCU is sponsored by Under Amour....I see a Swoosh on the jersey.

Kansas has some hot women, but texas had more hot women!

Boat looks great! I definitely wasn't a fan of the Pumpkin. It's amazing how much a change in color can do for a boats looks.Still not a fan of the tower,but the interior is top notch.

I'll post tons of pics Tuesday. We boarded and surfed it all afternoon. It was awesome....

We had some great riders from Austin with us that normally ride their Naut 230.. Hopefully I can get them on here for a testimonial and critique.

I think that last year that was an accurate comparison but for 2013 I dont think you can compare a 130k plus boat to a 90k boat. There are only 2 that are in that class its up to the buyers to decide for themselves the one that is best.

Who mentioned anything about a comparison?

A true comparison is when someone shopping for a new boat takes both out for a pull, does the research, then puts his money where his mouth is buys one.

Anything else you'd like to add MHunter, or can you just not stand that the new Star is getting lots of limelight where the G doesn't even get talked about?

Also Mhunter, not really fair to compare the msrp of a brand new xstar to non-msrp of a 230. The new xstar can get to 150k if you want it to, but if you have a reasonable dealer and don't put anything on the boat beyond the essentials you won't be seeing a 150k price tag.

What...........that can't be. U mean he is throwing down new tricks on an old wake???????? Wtf. That wake is tiny. The only reason tricks are progressing is because of the new star wake according to MC and their propaganda.

Really would you care to name the other brands that can generate the same size wake ? If they do exist the builders are doing a great job of keeping them a secret.
I would compare the 230 to the 2011 Star as they were both the top of the line flagship boats from both builders . I think its safe to say that isn't true today with the release of the 2013 Star and the G23 and G25.

I think I said 130k and 90k those are both non MSRP prices based on what I have heard about the Star and what I was quoted on the 230 . Maybe Craig can be more specific about the cost of the Star since he sells them.

2011 star matches up with the 230, and did with pricing as well. The new star does not match up with the 230, as they are not supposed to compete with each other. I know what the star goes for, I had its price & option sheet in front of me today. Due to market demands you will see inflated prices in some areas, but that's how economics work. I am sure these new g23's and 25's will be selling for a much higher price for those with big pockets who want it right away as well.

Mhunter is applying drugs, not logic, to the argument. He's like a 13yr old boy. What Craig meant hunter, since you're a gdamn re...nevermind, is that he had some 230 riders coming out. In general, if youre riding a slammed out macked out 230, you ride a good wake, and its pretty big. Maybe competitive with a new X, maybe not, let's see the wake pics and hear the real comments before you start chasing troyDs D around boohooing troy jumping all over his D.

And fill out your profile or just leave...

That's it TROY I cant stand MC getting all the limelight??? That's why I didn't post in this thread until YOU called me out . I was just about to go crazy reading all about the 2013 Star in a 2013 Star thread . Thanks for inviting me in .

Are you speaking for Craig ? Do you know how the 230 was set up ? I thought the new Star was a improvement to the old one are you saying the new Star isn't any better than a sacked out 230 ? I at least compared the new Star to the G series.
Why should I fill out the profile ? Wouldn't that be like giving you the knife to stab me with.
You guys love to dish it out but ask a question or give an opinion and you go off with the name calling and insults.

For what it's worth, we had a great day on the river and the guys were stoked about the chance to ride behind the first production boat in our area... To be honest, I was too. I had been in both tour boats on several occasions and rode in it after the tour here in early June with Harley, Zane, and Rusty for most of the day but I didn't get to play around with the wake that day because it was a customer appreciation day and I didn't want to take away from that so I waited until we got one to test it.. My plans were to see the surf wake and get an outsider opinion on the size, cleanliness, etc of its wake. We took (3) 500-lb sacs and (1) 750-lb sac with us. I'm going to be honest and say that I've heard the factory weight is 1800 & 2000-lbs. I'm not sure which is correct, if either, but we placed a 500 on either side of the engine compartment and one in the bow for boarding and only used a 500-lb rear hatch and a 750-lb in the seat port side when we surfed. Now, I have no idea the optimal setup but that's what we used.
Regarding all the elite comparison stuff ... My intentions weren't to beat my chest or say anything negative about Nautiques. I was only giving reference that my riders have experience with top notch wakes behind their 230 and would be a good opinion to hear. Pics coming soon... I have to use my work computer for that.
Thanks for all the comments. Even you MHunter...

Craig I wasn't trying to start a fight with you . I just wanted to know your intentions about specifically naming the 230 as the boat they were coming from. It would have been better if they had ridden the G that would be a more apples to apples comparison. By naming the 230 I took it as a Nauique / MC comparison. I would expect the new Star to win out over the 230 if it didn't you have bigger problems. Bottom line the 2013 Star has been plagued by bad press, technical and component issues and worst of all inconsistent wake . I dont know if its all true but it would go a long way to stop the rumors if there were videos showcasing the wake throughout the entire set not just still shots when its at its best?

Seems pretty easy to grasp. Some great riders in Austin ride behind a 230, and he was hoping to get their opinions on the Xstar wake. Keep trying to stir that pot though...

Says who? you? You keep babbling inconsistent wake, issues. I haven't seen a bulletin by the mfr saying we are recalling boats due to technical issues.

And maybe those guys have ridden a G, he was saying, just like I said, that they ride big wakes and are used to them, you really have no deductive reasoning. Do you ever look at how many posts you post in certain threads and think maybe you yap too much. How old are YOU, because you type like a 14 year old - seriously, I typed like you when I joined WW back in the day....

MHunter, Einstein defined insanity as doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results...

You notice anything going on here....?
I call you out time and time again and you come here and you get beaten to a pulp because you don't come with facts you come with your Planet Nautique propaganda and your same talking points from late-2011.

I currently am not aware of any bad press surrounding the Star, am not aware of it being "plagued by problems." Maybe you should enlighten us? Funny how many are selling...

Alliance- I am pretty sure that just about every single star that has been produced and delivered has been sold, with only a handfull of dealers not ordering them for customers, but rather for showroom purposes. Each dealer only has limited slots this year so I don't think you will see too many non-customer ordered stars sitting in show rooms.

One last thought:

So you dont believe there are any wake issues? here are some quotes from the MC team forum
You can also look up Power tower problems or touch screen problems or do they not exist until the mfr recalls them also.

''The thing that pisses me off is how upset people (specifically wakeworld) get when you talk about the wake. They are just learning how to really get the weight right in this boat. The dealer told me straight up this is the most sensitive boat he has ever been on in regards to the weight. The slightest movement will make it wash to an extent. Which I could not believe how sensitive the previous generation is. But the wake is as advertised. MASSIVE. Wish i could have got a set in!''

''from people who have ACTUALLY ridden behind it, its getting some great reviews. I'm a little worried that because of the sensitivity... it'll go the way of the CC super air 220 (which is a great wake, but anyone in the boat moves 3 inches and it washes out (told this from a 220 owner, also a great rider)''

''My 04 can be sensitive at times. The GF decided to move all 120 pounds of herself about 15 inches and washed out my landing last Friday. (but i think it is because of all the weight we had up front)
But yes, that is essentially what they were saying is once you had it dialed in don't move. haha. But they loved every minute of the time they spent behind it.''

Maybe they are just not using enough deductive reasoning? I never said the wake is bad just INCONSISTANT. If you dont believe that to be true then I guess we will agree to disagree. As for my typing abilities I do the best I can I'm sorry if it doesn't live up to your professional standards .If I keep posting maybe I can be as good as you someday?
Wait a minute how do you know how I type are you having an out of body experience and are actually watching me????

Note the number of posts I TYPE is directly related to the number of WWBC members that ask me to respond. I never wanted to post here in the first place thank your court jester TROY for all of this.

whoever said that is a d bag.

namely, that was me . that information is second hand, i have not had the pleasure of riding behind it yet. I should have said "purported sensitivity". everyone has loved riding behind it that i've talked to though...

again, opinions. I'm not sure about you but i'm dying to get a set. In fact, i think i'll go riding after work here...

Willy I couldn't agree with you more. Most of the posts here are boring rah rah, that looks great, look at mine dribble the only time any real information is uncovered is when there is an active discussion about the topic both pos and neg. Otherwise its just advertising . I'm sure most get where I'm coming from. Unforchantly some here would rather bash the messenger than answer the message. They just follow along like lemmings and never have an original thought.

I cant think of any reason to think that . Both are the top models produced by both builders. I dont think any other boat can compete at that level.

If you would read 90% of your post you'd see why people think that you think the star doesn't hold a candle to the G.

Maybe its time for a new set of reading glasses here is a quote of exactly what I said. Where did you get I wouldn't compare the new Star to the G?

'' I would compare the 230 to the 2011 Star as they were both the top of the line flagship boats from both builders . I think its safe to say that isn't true today with the release of the 2013 Star and the G23 and G25. ''

Let me put it simpler so all can understand . I dont believe you can compare the 230 to the 2013 Star. If you are going to compare the 2013 Star to any other boat it would be the G23.

Sure you can compare them. Just like when I can compare a used car to a new car. Sheesh, just because you haven't tested everything in the world doesn't mean that you can make a comparison based on imperfect data. We're human, that's WHAT WE DO.

I said the 2013 Star is the only other boat that you can compare to the G . I never said it would hold a candle to the G . I have given my opinion of both boats I think everybody knows how I feel about them . Nothing has changed one has proven itself over and over again and the other is desperately trying to get some traction and win over public opinion. No doubt many will buy it because of the name . My question to you is are you willing to take a 130k gamble on a boat that has so many negative things written about it?

Well I'm glad we agree. Yes the G is desperiately trying to gain publicity while the star takes the limelight. The G does need to prove itself with some major hammers landed behind it. I'm glad we can finally agree!

Mhunter- why is the star a gamble again? Because 2012 was a bad year? Becuase they fixed the boat before they released it?

Also, a new set of reading glasses is not necessary, your sentence strucutre is horrible.

Walk away Mhunter...just walk away!

These guys are obviously on attack and catch you on everything you say. Its the same thing every thread about a MC or CC. At least the guys in another thread are debating between Malibu and Nautiques

It used to be many
Defending the G
Those voices now silent
Where can they be?

The new Star is out now
The G long forgotten
In a quiet factory now
The G mold sits, rotten

Trick after trick
Sale after sale
Only Mhunter doubts now
He holds on tooth and nail

But the Star has won
There is no debate anymore
Total number of G's produced?
Three prototypes plus IronJ's equals four

There is an Orange/Black/White G23 on our lake. Haven't seen anybody wakeboarding behind it yet. Did see surf boards in the racks.

And I'm up in Canada.

I dont know Troy your fan club seems to be getting smaller more and more members are getting tired of your trouble making . Only the die hard WWBC members are coming to your aid now and even they are getting fewer. Why dont you try another poem or maybe a riddle or song that might get them back. I am starting to think that calling you the Court Jester is unfair to Jesters . I think Village Idiot is a better fit. I think I saw your boat the other day looks nice how is the wake?

Was there a 2012 Star? Did they fix all the problems? Why dont you buy one and let me know how that works out for you?

Are you able to over ride the trim plate when surfing? most likely deployed because the boats not up to wakeboard speeds

Yes, you can turn off "autolaunch" and manually deploy the plate. I probably should have lowered it a bit and it would have cleaned up the surf wake but the draw/pull was better than anticipated, honestly.

Yes, he was using a go pro catching some action. Pretty cool set up....

Wakeboard was factory plus 500/500 rear hatches and 500 in the bow

Surf was 500 port rear hatch and 750 on the seat

I don't want to interject any more controversy into this, but I really like the rainbow graphics on the Watson Classic.


Nice pics, Craig, btw.
