I have heard alot of people say good things about the Prostar 205 and the Sport Nautique. Do a search, there have been alot of discussions about these boats and your price range.

You can get into a Supra Launch for that price, with automatic ballast - wakeplate, maybe a perfect pass. Great wake and great boat in the chop.

I picked up a '99 prostar 205 dd last may and I am very happy with it. It throws a nice wake when weighted properly and I have had zero problems with it so far.

For $25k? That's the budget here.

Yeah. I actually got it for under 20k, which would give him some options of either paying more down then expected or using the extra 5k for some accessories.

Yeah I ended up getting it for $19,400. I did lots of looking and research before buying and was happy to finally find a boat I wanted in my price range. It didnt come with a tower or perfect pass, but it had the 330hp northstar ignition motor, a skylon extended pylon, barefoot boom, and came with one 600# fat sac. The tower will be added this winter sometime and possibly perfect pass.

zigs, damn dude thats one hell of a deal! I hope I can find a 205 that new for that price when I am ready to buy one. I doubt I will be able to though. I see 95-97's going for more than that.
