So i realize I surf more and more as I get older, but I still love to wakeboard. Looking to upgrade possibly this winter. My current boat is 2003 Supra Launch SSV. Absolutely love the wakeboard wake. I feel like I've got the surf wake pretty dialed on both sides. Would love more space because I have virtually none with ballast bags full and tubes for kids and cooler to keep us hydrated. I've been reading some good things about the Supreme S226, which suggest a killer surf wake, but pretty bad wakeboard wake unless you get above 23-24 mph which isn't good for my son who just starting jumping this summer. ...so this will turn into the 'ol best boat for my budget thread, but I'm really stumped, so here goes priority list..
1.) space: always out with at least 8 people and kids who like to tube and need room for cooler, tubes, and surf and wake gear.
2.) surf: hate to be selfish, but I surf more than I wakeboard now so that narrowly beats out wakeboard wake
3.) wakeboard: I still love to wakeboard and my son just started w2w this summer at about 18.5mph and really want to make sure he can continue and enjoy wakeboarding.
Budget: probably 40-45 max!
Really open to any boat. But some that peak my interest are the Axis, MB Tomcat, Supreme 226. Tige Z series...
...and my budget may be unrealistic to my boat preferences listed above, so boat options that fit my budget would be ideal. ....possibly up to 50k
