Check it out, we just got our V ride, and man is it unreal!!!!
We optioned it with rear ballast (comes standard with front), perfect pass, flip up bolster driver seat, and 4 pull up cleats.
Stereo system and board racks are on their way.

I had the boat out today and it drive so smooth, The wake is huge when weighted with ballast. Its going to be a fun summer!!!!

Congrats, I like the simple blue/white color combo. Have fun, and take good care of her.

That looks sweet. I have a red/black one myself...pretty similar options. If you put another 300 lbs extra in the back and 200 in the nose the wake gets even better. Have fun.

thanks guys, I've been breaking her in but it hasn't be warm enough to ride. I'm hoping this coming weekend to get behind the new boat.

So far i've been really impressed with my new Malibu. Rides so smooth and tracks a really straight line. Its going to be really easy for rookie drivers to drive for me....can't wait

Just out of curiosity -- did you not like the illusion tower??

steve-o · Posted: Jun 06, 2005 6:26 pm Post subject:

didn't even consider the tower upgrade......way easier/cheaper to buy racks for this tower.

we just picked the v-ride up a moth ago and were loving it to, were puttin 500lb up front and an extra 200 in each rear compartment, no wedge and the wake is huge

Hey! Pretty much the identical boat that we just got. Can't wait to start riding it soon. Just need to re-buy some Alpha II speakers and some sacs. Nice right though.
