And the G Series...this was my first time seeing any of the G's in person. I must say, they are very nice! High attention to detail as shown in the speaker/cupholder/oh chit handles.

Few more Tige's..The RZ4 seems like a bargain compared to other 24' boats.

And the controversial ASR...This one had the Raptor 575 in it and the new Surf X system. Would love to take it for a spin!

Centurion FS44 - I'm sure it surfs nice but the front is ugly! So ugly, I purposely didn't take a pic of it. (only kidding)

Who's selling the Nautiques here in Colorado now? Is it Props+? I saw that they were selling new G23 on craigslist last summer but they are such a small shop. I've never seen Nautique at the Denver boat show before.

It was a place called Action Watersports. I think they are new. We had Nautique a few years ago from Great Lakes Marine, I think, and then they went away. They gave me literature and it didn't have their address or phone # on it. Weird.

Thanks for sharing the pictures. The only "price point" boat I see is the MB. Was there any Axis, Supreme, Sanger, Moomba's? They go for the same price Today that the Supra, Malibu, Centurion's used to sell for 5 years ago!

With all of these new boat prices being so high it at least makes me feel good that my current boat won't depreciate much more given the market.

In Canada our boat prices are based off the USD. So those boats that are "only" $110k are $137,000CAD and boats like the Supra SE or G23 are more around $175CAD. I wonder if that will effect the sales this year. I have a feeling the numbers in Canada may go down a bit.

thanks for the pics. The boats look great. The prices are just stupid. There is no other way to put it. It is to the point where I am going to start thinking everybody that buys one of these is on drugs.
I like the looks of all those boats but how does anybody even remotely justify buying any of those over 100K when you can get that MB for 75k(so sad this is what a lower priced boat is). I am assuming that MB is a 22. If so you can get a 22' MB picklefork for 40K less than the same size Malibu. Does the Malibu(insert any other 22' boat that is 100K+) come with free hummers or something?

As much as I would like a new boat, there is no way I could even thing about purchasing one of those. I guess as along as people keep buying them the prices will continue to climb. I look at the materials required to build a house, including all of the wiring, plumbing, appliances, HVAC, labor costs etc. and there is way more labor and materials in a small house, which is cheaper in my area than about half of the boats in this thread. Makes me wonder when a 21-23 ft boat costs more than a house!

my 2014 axis a20 with surfgate, wedge, heater, stereo one, plug and play, transom flush, ski pylon, custom cover, bimini, cleats, tandem galvenized painted trailer with aluminium rims = $54000(49 boat, 5 trailer - i negotiate hard) added 3 sacks, 4 spare vynil covered racks(spare from texasmalibu.com), tower mounted mirror, mount, and tower mount(spare from texas malibu.com except mount), two surfboards, safety gear, dock gear, tax, title license $64600. ha, ha, ha , ha, lauphing all the way to the bank. My surf wake is 3'6'' tall with a big lip and face, laughping all the way down the water only burning 13 to 20 gallans for medium to very long days and i don't get out of the water except for others to take their turns. are you kidding me!!!!!!!!!

oh i forgot again, quick collaps tower knobs(simplistic system i agree), but since i park under a carport attached to my house, i use it every week, so obviously functional as i put it down myself and put it up with help only because tower supports have racks macking them a bit un-wieldly so i choose to have help going up so i don't scratch boat(simplistic so what, cost next to nothing) and custom cover does a great job with poles underneath cheated to the open side of the carport and i use garbage bags stuffed in tower holes snugged by cover and tower struts and tucked under draw strap seam of cover, boat high and dry especially with fan under cover(again lauphing all the way to the bank)!!!!!!!! those prices are ridiculous, even mine is a bit much for me, but it was for a new boat custom ordered. I always wanted one of these boats, but even the used prices of those boats were ridiculous and well above my price so i got to go new!!!! Negotiating tactic - $10000 certified check mailed to dealer(not in person), initially general manager turned down deal, so i said send check back, salesman called back later and said deal - remember one thing about axis, nothing is standard except the tower and motor(330hp works just fine with high altitude prop no matter how much ballast and people), you must order everything else including pop up cleats, boat will come with no cleats if you don't specify($250), by the way i admit to having a few very minor warranty issues, but nothing major at all!!!

Are you kidding me with those prices?? I knew the G series was up there but $150K?? I thought you could get a 22-23 foot Malibu for $85Kish. These prices look to be 30-40% higher than I saw at our boat show last year.
Paid $50K for our brand new and fully loaded Malibu 23 LSV 9 years ago and I thought that was outrageous.

I think this is the 2nd year for Action Watersports in CO. They expanded from their AZ location and from what I can tell things are going well. Props Plus also has AZ & CO locations and I believe they may have facilitated some of the initial Nautique's that Action sold up there. I keep meaning to attend this show since we have so many great dealers throughout CO and it would be fun to connect with them. I'm adding it to the schedule next year for sure.

Redheadd I agree with you. This guy is a complete joke. 1. He can not even write in proper English and 2. He charges someone 120 dollars to ride on his boat yet he calls it a "bro boat." He also thinks that he has brought wake surfing to Louisiana. I doubt he has even wakeboarded.
You can tell this is his first rodeo in the wake boat industry. Axis makes great wake specific boat but the build/fit/finish are not even in the same atmosphere as all the boats listed on here. Not to mention the resale will never be there for these boats. I have nothing against axis their wakes are great but I don't think 65K for an A20 is all that great of a deal....

The best thing that yall could do would be to get him out of an A20. You should read his post in the classified section. I live close to that area he describes and I can promise you that 90% of what he says is inaccurate.

Thanks for the pics, great looking boats! I'm ever amazed at the size & comforts of the new wakeboats.
Guess I'm lucky to have bought my boat 12ish years ago(2003 SAN), because I couldn't get a new boat today. They are big, beautiful and out of my price range. It is difficult for my to wrap my head around a 150K 25'-26' boat that doesn't have a cabin, aft cabin, sink, stove, fridge ect.... Maybe those are all 400K now?

I've had 2 Axis and I will call total BS on his claim of any boat burning "13-20 gallons" on "medium to very long days" of surfing.

I guess depending on the boat, you could use as little as 4 gph. I regularly get 10 to 12 engine hours out of 42 to 45 gallons when purely surfing.

That whole boat is enormous. I was like this the whole time I was in it. MC X45/X46 or Bu 247/MXZ 24 are big boats and then you get in that thing and you can either throw a party or every person gets to stretch out and relax. It is sweet...but not $150k sweet (to me anyway).

awsome feedback, controversy is great, look how much of a hornets nest(what fun) and if anyone wants to see my fuel receipts(it would be more fuel if i had more wakeboarders instead of surfing, skating and some wakeboarding, but only me the old fart with a new boat), please come see them. I tried to buy rides on stuck up younger riders boats for $100 a day on the internet for 1 and 1/2 years when my old fish and ski was broke, but since i didn't live up to their image, i was refused, so that is why i had to buy a boat, but why pay more when you can pay less and get the same thing, come see my surf wake, its freaky. and to finance mine, i tried to start a business, not very successful yet, but i will give you an all day ride for that fee every saturday and sunday of every weekend from april to october without hearing, "oh but not this weekend, because of x, or y or z," Buy they way, i have no note, i own it outright!!!!

hey david curtis, how come you contacted me anyway on facebook wanting to know how much i charged for just a "set". Sorry i disappointed you so much with my reply of only my day price, but funny how you seem to be interested or maybe you were just window shopping. Yet I wonder what you own outright and can take to the water whenever you want

david curtis, i think i have been skiing at the spillway (34 years- 31 with my own boat) for more years than you have been alive. I think your hot place is the jordon river(60 miles away)? curvy not straight like the tree lined for wind spillway for 2.75 miles) waterway/river with more boat traffic than an interstate. I think the spillway is pretty cool, please stay away, so that i can keep enjoying it most of the time with 3 or 4 maybe 5 or 6 active boats each day, many hours of the day if i keep to a section, we are alone. But really dave, we want you at the spillway and you are welcome on my boat any day for a great day of surfing, boarding and skating any day!!! I'm very eager to see your form, and young guys are needed to keep ol' farts like me young and on my wakeboard instead of surfing and skating so much

I think ill stick to my curvy home river with SANDY bottoms that is 60 miles away. the information that you You are 100% correct that I did ask information about the boat because of the misleading information that was posted.
You call yourself a "BRO BOAT" yet you charge people $120 to come ride on a boat that you say that you have no note on. if you don't have a not then why do you charge $120. I could see maybe $25 per set for gas but $120 c'mon man!!! I invite people on my boat all of the time and I never ask for gas money yet they do offer and sometimes I will take it.
A boat to me is not about asking people for money, it is about hanging out with friends and family enjoying life on the water. I have been around boats my entire life and will continue to be. I grew up riding on the spillway and trust me I know everything about it.....

Dude has posted the same thing about his great Axis A20 on just about every active thread on WW yesterday and today.
Nothing wrong with an A20. I don't care if you have a "note" or not. Not sure what the point of your ranting on a bunch of different threads.
Like Timmy said start your own thread. That way you can fully tell the rest of us how dumb we are for owning anything but a A20 and that we are the dumbbbbest ever if we finance. Also for our lack of insite for riding anywhere but "the spillway".

Please read his post in the classified section. I laugh every time that I read this. The only truth in this statement is the straightness of the spillway. Other than that it is a muddy bottom that you will sink 1 foot the minute you walk on it with logs everywhere. There are no sandy beaches. Its full of alligators and snakes (I hunt alligators there). The man is off his rocker........

back to the original posting. As great as the supas look I would never pay that much for one. They do not have a history of building high end boats. Within the past three yeas they have stepped up their game and their price. They seem to have some great boats but they are not big in Louisiana. MC/CC have always been known for there superior builds and great boats.
I love me some Malibu but damn they have rose in price too. In 2012 when I was searching for a boat, you could get a 22MXZ for 85,000 and that was pretty loaded.
I know people blast MC/CC for their prices but why aren't they complaining about the price of the Supra and Centurion. I mean those are some crazy prices on those boats.
I will say that those prices on the MC x23 and the CC G23 are still high as I have prices for both of those boats with more options from less. Yet these are still no Axis A20 for 53K...
