I currently have a '99 Nautique 176. The kids are getting better at wakeboarding and doing some wakesurfing, and I'm looking for something bigger but still want to be able to squeeze the boat in the garage. I can do it with a 20' boat at an angle. My wife skis, so I need something that can do it all and at least not have a horrible wake for skiing. I've been looking at some of the 20 footers that are marketed as do it all boats. I don't want to spend more than $50K so looking at used. I've been looking at an Axis A20, Mastercraft NXT20 and a few others.I've read about the NXT20 vs X20 and see people saying the X20 is much better but about $20K more used, which is over my budget. There's the Nautique GS20. I found a brand new Sanger V215 that's 21' but was told it might be a better a fit than some of the 20' boats that have the fork front because at an angle it's be a tougher fit. A salt water package is a big bonus because I'm in San Diego and during the Winter the local lake is only open on Sundays so I like to drop in Salt Water on other days. So does anyone have any opinions on boats to definitely consider or stay away from?
