Think people are being easy on the OP cause she's a chick. And I couldn't care less about the MC think, to me the 230 is much more boat than the MXZ, IMO.
I'm just surprised she isn't being called out on this stuff. If it was a guy making this comparison and a Tige or MB was involved it would be MAD in here (mutually assured destruction). But I'm glad they found a boat they love and the bu is a great boat, don't get me wrong, I would be proud to own one. My priorities are wakeboarding though, and I give up on other stuff to have a great wake. Reason I've owned old stars which do nothing really well is because of the slammed wake. |

Haha 20 cup holders. Game changer! The OP should look at a G23 too.

@chpthrillah:
Would you say that the MXZ is the best 22' footer on the market? I'm interested in your perspective as you "crawl" all over boats a lot. Are you a boat detailer or are you the guy from boattest.com? |
Yes chp I was referring to you. I read your reply as stating that it still had decent bow storage with the tank, sorry. And as you know it doesn't have any at all, zero. Not even a spot to put a little lead:). well I guess you could put some in the cup holders:).
Are you employed by a dealer? What brands do you guys sell? |
Oh and I know the OP has already passed on the x-25 which is prob a good idea but just wanted to point out what I was talking about with the x-25 rolling over at slower speeds. Check this 21+mph vid out. Tell me that port wake doesnt look like its ready to roll right over. Now add a bunch of peeps and maybe some more weight to her and let's see it?

Jet,
Im not a boat dealer, nor am I the guy from boattest.com. I am not affiliated with any boat manufactures or dealers and heck, I have a 24ft pontoon :p Ive been working on boat for over 15 years, so have some experience and can qualify my statements. Now, to your other question. My personal opinion, like yours, is useless here and doesn't matter, but for you I will offer it. No, I do not think the 22 MXZ is the best 22 ft'r on the market. This is based on what I want out of a boat personally. It has everything to do what I personally want out of a boat, and zero to do with what I actually think about the 22 MXZ or any other boat. 2nd, your question is soo loaded and vague, its almost impossible to answer, without the answer being heavily biased and based on personal expectations. |
Don't dodge the question: if you were buying a 22 or 23 footer today (as the OP did look at a 23 footer) which would it be? "Vague questions?"
I will implore of you to offer your opinion here, and be honest. And I love how because you service boats you think you are a pro, yet could not even point out that the MXZ has NO bow space. Your credibility is zero, you are boring, and frankly, I question your intelligence. You are a bu fanboy and the jig is up. |
This has to be one of the worst threads in we history.

I don't get it. Did an X25 beat you up in an alley or something?? |
Starting to agree with that jilted ex-wife comment...
Don't get why people get their panties all in a bunch over other people's boat preferences.... |

Nothing personal Cpthrill or anyone else I may have offended. School is sucking the life out of me. Just wish I was riding again.
Anyone lucky enough to be riding in a 100K wake boat is blessed no matter what manufacturer's badge is on the side of the boat. Congrats on the new ride and let's see some pics! :) |

Yup. They are a POS. Everyone may as well trade all of their deep-Vs for horses, and then shoot the horses.

This thread is boss.
Personally I think pretty much everything is a trade off in some way or another. You can get a great wake with stock ballast but you may not get a clean low mph wake. You have have a great surf wake stock but you either have to give up the clean low speed wake or spend a lot more money. You can get a boat with all the fancy screens and bling but you pay a higher price. There isn't a single boat that is perfect for everybody. I personally like MB's because I think they are built as good as any boat on the market, perform well, use high quality materials, are simple and are priced on par with the lowest priced boats on the market. The trade off would be that it is hard to get a clean wake at slow speeds, it is harder/more expensive to add extra ballast, there is no walk through, built in cooler and you don't get all the fancy screens that allow for all kinds of ballast, speed and other preferences. My personal preferences are for simple, inexpensive and quality. Like DBC schooled me in another thread my preferences aren't everybody elses. For him a clean low speed wake is very important. Also I bet he ends up with a new boat soon that has the surfgate because having a boat that can stay evenly weighted and still throw up a solid surf wake is important. Without it being evenly weighted I am not sure he gets to surf as much. I think the OP was obviously favoring the Malibu and he chose it. Awesome. Now get ready to have some fun on it but don't forget to post some picks so we can all be jealous. |

To the OP, apologies for some of the responses you've had to read. Hopefully this experience doesn't sour you to the site. You've been around here awhile, you know how the minions get restless in winter. Congratulations on your new boat, I think you made the best choice!
To Jet, I hope you've enjoyed your time on WW. You've managed to piss off and alienate a lot of quality people because of your ego, bravo. Good luck with people taking you seriously or ever replying to any thread you might create. |
Thank you all for your opinions and help except of course JetRanger. You are a bully and I suggest you not refer to girls,women or ladies as a chick on this forum dude. I am no chicken. Thanks again to all the other good folk on wake world. Have a great summer!
