Truth be told I've never been a MasterCraft guy. Had 5 before and they never impressed me. I loved my Nautiques - and loved my Bu even more. That said, our new X-Star is one of the best boats I've ever owned. "Wow" is all I can say. If you are in the market for a core wake boat, this is one to check out. I now understand why they have been the riders choice for so many years in a row. We have the LY-6 motor (400hp) with the Acme #1285 prop (14.50 x 14.25) and that baby jumps out of the water - even with all of the ballast full, and the additional Fly High system (3k or so) filled, plus 600lbs of lead, and 4 guys - all at high altitude. I cannot believe how much power that combination of prop and engine has! So yeah, we are sponsored by MC so this is probably a plug in some small way...but those of you that know me, know that I call it as I see it. For those in the area, we'll be towing at least 2 of the contests with this baby and doing pulls the day before. Dang...this thing is cool!
