  1. The best boats for wakeboarding are MasterCrafts and Malibus, in my opinion.  I have a 21V Malibu and its amazing.  No ballast system, but a power wedge allows me to tweak the wake.  Until you are a pro, most wakeboard boats will feel the same.


  2. not quite sure what that model is, but if im looking at the correct pic of it, then no, it doesnt look that great.

    my friend has this exact yamaha high output jetboats, and its an excellent wakeboard boat.

  3. Yep that is a good boat for wakeboarding

  4. Any boat that can throw a decent can be a good wakeboarding boat.  Hull shape, weight distribution, and prop pitch will determine how the boat produces a wake and performs for wakeboarding.  The V-drive and Direct Drive will offer the best wakes.  A good 60/40 (back/(middle/bow)) distribution of the weight in the boat will produce the best optimal weight distribution.  Being that this is a jet boat, prop pitch won't be a factor.  Any boat that has enough power to get you up will work, but you have to fine tune a few parameters to produce a better wake.  PWC's and jetboats make great wakeskate tow vehicles.  I haven't ever ridden behind a jet boat, but I have PWC's and can still do surface tricks, even without a great wake.  If it has a motor and I can get up behind it, I'd ride it.  For the price of a new Jet Boat, you could get a great used wakeboard specific boat.  That is if your primary purpose was to wakeboard.  That boat looks fun though.

  5. Sure.  I have a seadoo Jet boat and love it.  Its just like a race car out on the lake.  It also has just enough power to Wake with about 3 in the boat easily.  Any more people and you need a prop I say.
