I have a full set of progressive sticker package. New in plastic. 450.00. Pls PM me if interested

@skihacker who really cares. Because it really doesn’t matter if she can drive a slalom course or not. If the wife wants it then all is good. Happy wife happy life.

Go onto ski it again and look at the prices of the 200’s are. I’m thinking 45 to 50k. The 6L is a bonus. It should sell quick.

Would that be warranty

@bananaron the XTR is a great ski. Have no idea what you are on now but the XTR keeps speed through the turn easy to ride on on a XTR CC TEAM but my back up ski os my old XTR. great ski forgiving stable. .

@03RLXiif you can’t trust all partners involved maybe that partner ship should be split. If you don’t have trust between everyone they why be part of it. or just split 8 ways. The people who feel the value is not there may leave.

@mike_mapplecome on. It never the skiers fault. Bad boat path speed was wrong didn’t shorten the rope. LOL. sir you are right.

I’ve heard good things and bad things at slower speeds regarding the new Nautique. The same with current MC and Malibu. These boats are hand made. The person spraying the boat might have been flipping burgers at Mc Donald’s one week and spraying 100k boats another week. Same with the assembly. I agree with Horton in the fact the 200 may of had a great 22 or 28 off wake or it could have had a bump that is all in the human factor as they build . I have not noticed any bump with any of the 4 ski boats when starting off at28 off. After that all wakes are great. No boat is perfect. Find the boat that works for you and go from there.

@bananaronyou will have to pay sales tax regardless. Either when you purchase the boat or when you register the boat which has to be done if on a public lake. Plus the trailer will need to registered also to go down the road. you may be able to get away with it on a private lake.

@MDB1056 with new boats 110k plus the used boat market will hold its value. Plus a 7 month wait in some cases even if you can get a current year model. supply demand.

The price of the boats can very due to hrs, color, the condition. Pictures don’t tell the whole story. The 2 that were mentioned both have 5.7 motors that are not available anymore which may affect value, some may just want to dump it the boat and get out from under it. The majority of 200 for sale have 400 to 1200 hrs and some the hrs are on the second motor. Most 200 are going for 70 to 74k.

@disland ever since Ram-Lin sold the rights to Boatmate they are about the only ones other then phoenix . Call Skip Dunlop he is on here as x prop an I believe.

If you are worried about fuel economy on a 100k boat then maybe that boat is not for you. Sounds like splitting hairs.

I agree with mbabiash. The 6.2 has a great pull. The lower RPm’s and where they fall in the torque brand make for a great pull. The only down fall most promo boats have the 6.0. Unless you are in Florida you may not get to feel this awesome pull. Even in Florida it’s rare just due to lack of boats.

Just call Masterline and talk with Randy or Bob..

A pro star does not need a triple axle let alone a tandem.other than looks and long trips to the lake. After a closer look it may be a wake board trailer converted. Pro stars don’t need bow ladders. Huge over kill Good luck

I can say having 2 OB 200’s, The open bow ski boats are a great idea for the family. But in reality there is very little freeboard ,limited seating per the coastguard I believe 150-200 lbs total. The are more settable to submerge going over larger wakes the closed bow due to the extra weight from the seating and support structures not including whom ever is sitting up there. They are great to sit and relax in the sun floating on the lake. MC hit a home run with the removable deck. If done right perfect place to nap out of the sun.

@03RLXi I do agree with you on a basic slalom tug. But 78k seems a bit much for what is shown on the video. Is that base boat shown? If not what options are on the boat? You are correct about the bow.

78k base is that on U.S. soil? Seating looks like 2 table chair with legs taken off. Center drive is interesting. I don’t see it making a big splash here unless the interior comes up to current big 3 comforts.

That Malibu with 30 hrs is either a demo or a boat that has been already registered. Which is not an issue. But the price may tell you that the resale of the TXI may not be that great in the long run. Thoughts should be how will the boat feel and perform in 300 hrs when things loosen up? I know from experience MC and the 200 will be solid as the day it first hit the water. If your wife is driving you in the course the MC and 200 especially the 200 will make it easier on her to drive a better ride due to the way they track. I’ve been in some great TXI’s And some poor ones. All depends on how they were set up. 88k may not include shipping which could be around 3500 or cost of driving up there to pick up and bring home

@Cnewbert did not know. Jody talked like he had some investment in it atheistic last tournament. Thanks for the correction.

A gallon gas jug and 50 pounds of lead shot works great. Just seen the gas cap.

This is Jody fishers new endeavor. It is a Cajun food. Have not had any food as of yet but I wish him good eats on the new project.

Well Klang will be happy. Hopefully history won’t repeat its self and the county will find some reason to start letting water out. It’s is a great place to ski.

Sure path is great for finding the center and fine tune your driving at the shorter rope lengths.
