Happy and sad...

We just got this new boat in October and it went straight into storage. We did at least get to demo it once. Next year can come any time. Smile

I like the colors. Very cool boat. Enjoy.
Is it set up with balast or wedge?
Are you getting a tower?

Balast no, but it does have a wedge. I would like the Illusion X Tower on it.

I demo'd this boat (05 Sunscape LSV w/Monsoon 340)...and should have bought it. It was an awesome crossover boat (great wakes at 21 mph w/wedge, and absolutely flat slalom wake at 32m ph without wedge), and without ballast but with a wedge, it still would be a fine wakeboarding boat....it handled like a dream....one of the best driving and most comfortable boats I demo'd. The only boat that handled similarly was a Sanger V215, but the Malibu was pure luxury to be in.

Seems that when adding a wedge to a boat with ballast, the difference is more about wake shaping than sizing, but when adding a wedge to a boat with no ballast, a wedge makes a non ballast boat like a ballast boat.

Congrats
