I have a '95 and it is a great boat (same hull as the current I-Ride).
Good wake when weighted. We usually run a few sacs and the wedge. The wake can get a little steep and have a lip on the top if you use the wedge and weight it heavily in the rear. If you want a rampy wake, just add more weight and don't use the wedge.
Good slalom wake as well.
The boats are pretty trouble free and from what I understand there is no wood in the floor.
My only suggestion would be too look for something with the Monsoon engine, or at least EFI...
Here are some pics of ours...
