I hope to check later. From looking at the instrument cluster and comparing with old Malibu manuals, this looks like a 2004LX. Any thoughts on price?

I was questioning that as well. It doesn't look like any 2012 malibu I've seen on line. Owner was not at the house at the time.

I would appreciate any thoughts or experience with the 2012 Malibu Response LX. Pricing suggestions would also be helpful. While looking at a house yesterday, the realtor let me know that the owner is very interested in selling this boat along with the house. He is the original owner and the boat has 430 hours. This boat has been pampered and looks practically new. Lives in an air conditioned garage. Detailed regularly and has no visible blemishes. You could eat off the engine. 1. 2. 3. I'm not sure what this type of open bow is called without a walk-through, but I don't like it. Do you lower the center windsheild and have people climb over the dash? I've never seen that and do want an open bow.

I just spent the long weekend skiing with my new to me Goode Wide Ride. I'm impressed with the performance of this ski. It seems very fast to me and also turns very quickly on both sides. A significant step up in performance from my Connelly Carbon V. Most important to me is the ease of my deepwater starts. I almost put this post in the other thread for this reason.

Watched it with the family after a long day of skiing. Everyone enjoyed the film. My daughter and I were at the Worlds at Jack Travers which made it particularly entertaining to relive that great event. My only gripe was not enough Regina.

This looks good! Sending on to everyone I know who likes the water.

I keep staring at that one, too! Lots of hours for a 2 year old boat, but the price certainly reflects it. Very tempting!

Wrong Mitch. We didn't chat today. How many hours? Any more photos? What information was normally displayed on the non-functioning center screen? Did Tommy's give you a price for replacement?

All my confusion! So rare to see Wide Rides on SIA, but there were two listings. I got Mark's confused with another listing which was for a 66 model from 2022.

I just tried to buy this ski. The link on SIA returns messages from someone named Shane Davis in Tuscaloosa, AL. The OP on this thread is Mark Guilfoose from Williamsport, PA. I'm not sure what to make of all of this.

Yes, that is the "Starting Price" as listed on their site. They don't list the additional costs of the different engines, paint options, covers, seat cushions, etc... What does one usually pay out the door for a new one?

Anyone know th MSRP of the 2023 SN200 open bow? I've been googling without satisfaction. Sad that this isn't posted plainly on the Nautique web site.

I hope so! Some serious skiers on Tennessee. I looked at several houses on Lake Julianna but decided in the end that the lake was too big and windy. This has been a tough decision without being able to experience the various lakes first hand.

I just bought a house on Lake Tennessee. My quest for lakefront living with course access has finally come to fruition. Thanks for all the guidance here and behind the scenes PMs. Now I just need to find a boat and change out the cradle on the lift (pontoon boat cradle there now).

The boat is in the showroom here at Action in Orlando.

That's a beauty!

I'd like to do that, but I'm wondering what a reasonable number would be. Several new prostars on onlyinboards at $120. I might bite at $110

Strolled through the Mastercraft dealer yesterday where a beautiful Prostar sat in the showroom. I am in the market for a boat, but thought only of buying a late model used boat. When I asked the price, I was told $140k for the boat but that the price was negotiable. Realistically, what's the price of a new prostar from a busy dealership? They would obviously like to move a boat they have sitting in stock. I might be interested in buying if the price was right. I had foolishly hoped this would not be as painful as buying a car. Sadly, I was mistaken.

Beautiful boat, but I'm reluctant to spend that money with those hours from a manufacturer that no longer produces ski boats. I'm still looking for a late model, low hours SN200 open bow or Prostar.

I had a great time this weekend at my second Masters. The wind was a bummer, but I love how the stars of our sport are so accessible and personable.

Anyone know the order of the men's jump from saturday?

I'm up here at Callaway Gardens now. Watching them set up the place for the tournament this weekend.

@Buxrus I've been pondering Gary's boat. I'm also in the market for a newer Nautique 200 open bow. Solid price. I need to give him a call as I was wondering why he was selling.

I'm an old guy (58) like you and mostly free ski but just getting into the course. I love my Carbon V. Easy up and very stable in all conditions but turns very nicely. Carbon Omni would be another good choice from what I hear.
