This is a bargain folks. For years my bro Jim (rest his soul) @razorskier1 (maybe he still gets shout outs--I'll try) owned one--so I drove and skied it a bunch. Only difference is it was yellow and Jim had the Scorpion motor.
1.) it's not small--its really wide and 22 long with platform. It is low to the water one of the coolest looking boats sitting at idle.
2.) good luck finding a boat that tracks better
3.) good luck finding a boat with less spray--like there's none
4.) great barefoot boating
5.) slalom wake is really small, but has firm edges to it (at least at my speed and lines 28 off to 39 when I was really "on")
6.) Don't expect to wake board it, surf it, or probably trick it if you want lift--the boat doesn't make a big wake--period
7.) Carpet, vinyl, seat padding, motor box insulation are not "Big 3", but they are nice quality.
8.) It's low enough that you can easily take water over the bow. If you know what you are doing, "no", but if you didn't pay attention on a public lake and some other barge threw a shitty at you--you certainly could.
9.) handles like a small boat
At $14,900 this is a lot of boat, and if it's Ron's boat you can trust the condition and that the ad is honest. Would make an awesome first ski boat--drop a z-box in there and go.
