Specs:

The previous owner had a gasket go out on the engine, so MC replaced the engine under warranty and now I have a new 8.1L engine with new warranty.
4 tower speakers,
MC cruise
New graphics
The boat is in excellent condition and has 97 hours on it.
This has been a tough decision for me to make as that I have owned Tiges for the last 7 years. I sold my 24V a few months ago and found the economic crisis had hit boat dealers and makers pretty hard. This seemed to be the time to get an MC at a great price. As far as true value, I think that MC is the best right now. I don't see many 100K X-stars like just 1-2 years ago.
My family wakeboards, surfs, tubes and just loves to hang out on the water. Sometimes it is a big crowd, and the 45 fits the bill.
A big thanks to Matt, Billy and Landon at Utah water sports for their encouragement and patience with me on this big purchase. The guys run a classy place and once my wife got into the store and felt good about it, the purchase was a no-brainer. I told my wife that this boat was the 'one' before we saw it in person. She is always skeptical about big purchases and worries about having regrets, but after we arrived at the showroom, they put her at ease and that made the buy an easy one to make.
