Please help me compare these boats. I realize one is a v-drive and one is a direct drive so I am wondering how much difference the wake will be for wakeboarding and surfing? What are the pros and cons for both?

Thanks in advance.

I came from a dd to a v drive. The biggest difference for me is the ability to weight the boat down much easier. I would go with the v drive if both boats are in similar shape. Better resale and you get much more room.

Do you have links to see the boats? Condition,options,hours ect.The v-drive will be easier to get both a good surf and wakeboard wake on.

Tige 22v is a great surf and wakeboard boat. What engine does it have?
