what is your definition of "best"? remember to each his own.. that is like asking what is the best car or best weather?

I guess you haven't gotten it yet with the numerous threads on this topic that you keep posting this week. There is NO best wakeboat. It comes down to a lot of personal preferences regarding use and wake.

What's best for one person is different than what is best for someone else...

is Westlake the best lake, or is Eastlake the best lake?

(h20jnky) · (h20jnky) **Join Date: Mar 2003** 05-28-2008, 4:30 PM

(baschralper) · (baschralper) **Join Date: Dec 2001** 05-28-2008, 4:40 PM

is a lake the best, or is a reservoir the best?

even better, is a beaver dam the best, or is a man-made dam the best?

If you called Malibu and asked them that question they would hang up

(05mobiuslsv) · (05mobiuslsv) **Join Date: Apr 2006** 05-28-2008, 8:27 PM

No they would say yes...

(tripleup) · (tripleup) **Join Date: Apr 2004** 05-28-2008, 8:58 PM

I just did a little research and the experts that I am talking to are saying yes it is the bestest ever to infinity in scientific terms.

2nd best.

just behind a 70's era tri-hull with a wooden tower.

Last time i checked, the x-star was the best boat, i dunno what you guys are smoking...

(baschralper) · (baschralper) **Join Date: Dec 2001** 05-29-2008, 12:07 AM

ahh here we go with the x star bs, i have a vlx and i like it better than the xstar, but who gives a rats ass which one anyone thinks is better. i like the wake better the feel and everything else and i could have chose either of the boats... but thats me. do me a favor go decide which one you like the most and stick to it bc thats what we all do here.lol

My malibu is the best b/c it is paid for!!!!!!

If I owned a mastercraft and it was paid for...it would too be the best.

(tampawake) · (tampawake) **Join Date: Mar 2008** 05-29-2008, 6:13 AM

I am convinced its the boat you can afford and that is in your garage, lift, driveway etc that you use regularly with your family and or friends. The posts are so f ing useless!

(05mobiuslsv) · (05mobiuslsv) **Join Date: Apr 2006** 05-29-2008, 7:11 AM

If my parents bought me an X-star it would be the best boat Twitch I don't blame you. But hasn't that boat spent more time in the shop than on the water. Oh and your Dad is looking at getting a VLX.....

(wakereviews) · (wakereviews) **Join Date: Sep 2006** 05-29-2008, 7:16 AM

Agree with Tampa, which makes my Tomcat the best boat ever. (and the fact that the ballast system is incredible, wakes are perfect stock for beginners and advanced and it is the smoothest ride I've ever been in)...

but all those things that Tampa mentioned too!

Shall we start debating x-star vs. vlx right now!? x-star will win, no questions asked...

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. You are right your boat is much better at making trips to the dealer than mine I'll give you that

I am sorry, there are no winners in this kind of debate.... just a bunch of losers. ;)

Hey schmo if you couldn't tell twitch and I are messing around, go take a humor pill. What else can you do with a stupid post like this?

(schmo) · (schmo) **Join Date: Oct 2003** 05-29-2008, 7:58 AM

Did you miss the wink or are you just learning this 'puter thing?

(05mobiuslsv) · (05mobiuslsv) **Join Date: Apr 2006** 05-29-2008, 7:54 PM

Dang cody 35 hours in a weekend. You're looking at a 600 hour year at this rate. Get some...

(hatepain) · (hatepain) **Join Date: Aug 2006** 05-29-2008, 7:55 PM

This has been covered many times and Sanger always comes out on top but between the two POS' you guy's are discussing I'll go BU based on reliability. Nu, I'm pretty sure that's still Peter's boat that Twitch gets to use and drive. Hey Twitch tell your dad to come see me so we can get you a matching tow rig!!!

(05mobiuslsv) · (05mobiuslsv) **Join Date: Apr 2006** 05-29-2008, 8:26 PM

Hate I'd put the Bu up against the Sanger any day as well....

(themxercr85) · (themxercr85) **Join Date: Jul 2007** 05-29-2008, 8:29 PM

haha weve already got the black burb, i want him to get a pick up soooo bad, we just need the space, next on the list is the SRT Challenger! =D sorry hate, we got the saleen from you though thats a biggie right there lol

(hatepain) · (hatepain) **Join Date: Aug 2006** 05-30-2008, 11:31 AM

Let me know when you guys wanna get a Challenger and I'll see what I can do. I have a good friend who runs 4 Dodge stores in the area. They'll be tough to get and get anything resembling a good deal on for a while but I'm sure I can set you up a little.

Nu, I wouldn't expect any less brotha. I'd put the Sanger up for reliability and fit but not bling, finish and cool gadgets. I think the wakes are pretty equal but it takes a little more effort with the V215.
