Hey guys,
I am new to this site so it's only proper to do a little intro....
Three years ago I bought my first boat for our small and young family, a 2006 SeaDoo Speedster SCIC. It's a small 215hp jet boat that only seats 4, more like a PWC with a steering wheel, but it did treat us good for our intended use at the time. I'm sure you guys aren't fans of jet boats, as "wake" is in the forum name. A few weeks ago I sold our boat and I'm now doing some research for our next boat.
Our kids are very young so tubing will be the first thing on the priority list, but I would like to keep our next boat for a long time and hope that our family can grow into it.
I first looked at the Yamaha AR195, which would fit our needs now, BUT, I expect our kids (and us) to want to learn how to wakeboard and wake surf. I have never done either but can't imagine anyone not enjoying either once they get the hang of it.
I can't justify spending more than $35k on a boat, I wish I could, but it's not in the cards at the moment, and probably won't be for a long time. I am in no rush to buy and am learning a lot from this forum.
Hoping to store it in my garage so length on the trailer (with a folded tongue needs to be at or under 21'6" or it will have to be stored outside, which I don't want.
Anyway, any feedback would be appreciated!
