It's not just the smaller beam of the sportster but the shorter freeboard that I think would feel small. I have never been in one, that's why I was asking. I have just read the Response feels a lot bigger.

The Sportsters are in my $ range but many I have seen for sale have a carb. A carb is a deal breaker for me. I am sure some of them have EFI.
Yes, one day I hope to be skiing 34mph. I have two friends that get into -28 @ 34mph and I would like to offer them a good wake.

@jfw432... I know, a boat with all the options and the year I'm looking for are $15k. I knew PP could be added but I did not know a heater or shower could be add by the average joe.
Thanks,

Thanks. If it was a price point boat did they have a carb or EFI?

What boat is best for -15off and slower speeds (30-32mph)?
I am looking to get my first direct drive this year. The boat will be used for slalom skiing 75% of the time and family activities the rest of the time (aka tubing/kneeboarding).
I am looking for an open bow, fuel injected, direct drive, 98 – 00 year range, around $12k. I have mostly been looking at the Response Lx, I think the Sportster is too small for me. I read 98 was the first yr with the diamond cut hull and the rear ski locker.
I have also been looking at the Supra Legacy. I don’t know if the Legacy had a hot shower as an option in 2000. I have been waiting a long time to upgrade and want to wait for a clean boat with all the good options (PP, heater, shower). I don’t see as many CC in my price range. The MC in my $ range are closed bow, so I quit looking at MC.
I am a grassroots slalom skier and have only skied behind a few direct drives. I have only owned an I/O. With so many people wakeboarding I am hoping the price of used slalom boats will come down a little this spring.
Best long line slalom boat?
