Im looking for my first v-drive boat, what is a good price? The dealer is asking 69k and i thought that was high

Thanks for your input!

I pm'ed him, but I think it might be sold. It looks really nice, the one I was looking at was also black with white interior, but minus the upgrades sound system, big engine and a few other things im sure!

So if a 2011 vandall goes for low to mid 55's maybe, a decent deal on a new one would be 60?

$69k sounds way high. $60k sounds about right if it is completely loaded out (z5, raptor, etc). I haven't been pricing them lately, so that could be way off.

Its the standard Vandall edition (no z5, raptor)

Where are you located? My boat sold, but I know of a few that are on the market. Sorry I didn't pm you back. A friend of mine is a regional Axis/BU rep, and I'm sure he can help you too.

I pick up the boat this saturday! Thanks for the help everyone, I am very excited, pics to come!

I have literally never even touched a wakeboard or wakesurf board, so some people might think i'm crazy for spending this much as a newb, but I'm sure I'll pick it up and love it. Although the main reason I got the boat was to upgrade the interior size, it seems like V-drives are much more roomy than other boats of similar size.

Any recomendations for a wakesurfboard and a wakeboard for a big newb (6' 230)?

CWB Kink wakeboard?
CWB Ride Wakesurf?

I started with a CWB Kink wakeboard and I love it. I bought a Ronix Arcade last summer but still prefer the Kink. I'm no pro like the rest of these guys but I can attest that it is great board!

Let's see that boat!

Took it out for the first time last weekend. Wow, I love this boat. I have never surfed or wakeboarded before and I got up on my second try wakesurfing! Surfing is so much fun, I stayed up for about 10 mintues learning to turn and move forward and back, then tried to let go and couldnt keep up with the boat, not sure why.

We were just running stock ballasts with wedge down. I ordered a bow pnp sack and eventually will add more to the rear...if my wife lets me, she likes having the storage.

We had a blast (except for the ticket for not having a fire extinguisher!).
