Here is our MB B52 V23
330hp Enginer and Two Speed Tranny... and just about everythign else is standard equipment. Purchased from Shadrack Watersports in Knoxville.

It has 2000lbs factory ballast, and with one tank full it produces a very clean tunnel with just me and the salesman on the boat. IN the Deal I picked up some bow weight. A 750lb fat sack. So, with tanks full, fat sack in bow, and a full tank of gas... that will be around 3100lbs in a 4000lb boat plus people.

Should be fun to load it out this summer.

Grats dude. Those are some wild colors! 750 might be alot for the nose without any extra weight in the rear, could result in too much ramp in your wake. I've got the 220V, 350 in the bow + 1800 stock is just about perfect.

Right on, I'm just passing along what I've already found out trying different stuff. Too much ramp and no peak is a bad thing. Oh and I've got about 25 lbs and 1cm on ya Smile

Yea, I didn't know much about them either until last years boat show. Being an Engineer... its all in the build. the way they do the graphics, the hinges, trim material, vinyl... etc. I have been secretly lusting after one of these for over a year. I was just a bit worried about them not being as popular. then I thought... I don't want to buy a new boat just to sale it and I like having somethign nobody else has.

Yes its a boatmate, with attached ratchet tie dows, brakes, LEDs, swing tongue, prop guard, and rollers.

I have heard nothing but good things about MB. I think they are more west coast
That boat will be very eye catching on the water. I just bought a new 210 SANTE
with a custom Boatmate trailer. I think you have a high quality combo.
Enjoy it this summer. Very Happy

Do you mind if I ask what one of those sells for? Great looking boat, I live in Canada and I don't think I've ever seen an MB on our lake, too bad, they look sweet.

I believe MSRP is around the 76K Range on this one.
Normal Dealer Dscount I think puts you in the mid 60s,
Poor Economy + Not a Popular Name in the area + Being able to be approved for a loan in the financial turmoil and having enough down to get into the boat = Less than what I want people to think I payed for it. Smile

Seriously though, normally this boat would be a low $60K Boat.
