I'm selling a 2000 X-Star. It looks and runs like it's brand new for 1/2 the price... Here's the link:

I have more pics of the interior too if you interested. It's spotless.

The 96-up 205 DD is also the same hull as the:
1999-2002 X-star
2002-2005 X2
2006-2007 X1

An other question, how does a 2000 x-star compare to a 2006 or 2007 x-star?
If I would buy a 2000 x-star and set it up with enough ballast and people, would it throw as good of an wake as a 2006 x-star?

Never been behind a new xstar but hear you have to load like 3000 pounds to get them to throw a killer wake. Many people prefer the old xstar wake over the new. Old xstar is one of if not the best wake I have ever ridden.

great, I will seriously consider to get one of those for next season..
Just hope my budget is good for it, otherwise it will be another year before I buy my wakeboardingboat.

what is the difference between the MC 205V and the X-star?
Interior, engine, electronic?

The MC 205V is the best bang for the buck. Same exact boat as the X-Star (for the years they were comparible).

This is a 2004 MC (Prostar) 205V. It is the exact same hull as the original X-Star/X2/now X1.

Here it is after I made it a 'Wakeboard Edition'... '04 MC tower, custom ballast, etc...

I think I have said it before P hat in Cincy, but I love your boat.

It may be my favorite Mastercraft pic boat of all time.

The best thing is that there are a ton of people thinking, “I’d rather have an X-Star/X-2/X-1/X-wife” not even knowing…….. CLASSIC…….

Love that boat…..and nice sundeck ornament as well.

Really nice picture man!

6 boards and a hot chick is what you need to decorate your boat... Very Happy

P hat in Cincy, where did you get your reg. numbers?

BIGMAC, I'm guessing domednumbers.com

Thanks guys. I knew she was a diamond in the rough when I first saw her. Same goes for the boat! Laughing

www.domednumbers.com is correct. They were great to work with and the numbers are multilayered/colored. You can see a close-up detail in my profile link.

E.J. is correct in stating that in many cases (not all) the 'wakeboard' version of boats have a counterpart that might be a ski/runabout version. The PS 205V is the original X-star/X2/now X1 in sheep's clothing.

If you are a DIYer, you can have some fun...and save some $$$.

E.J. ...really great words...thanks! Cool
