hey guys we are lookin at the new 06 22ve, just wanna know some input on the boat for those of you who have ridden behind it and about the boat in general. also how do you guys normally weight the boat to get a nice wake out of it. Im looking for a quality wake to advance on and need to know how yall are weighting it down.

It's a great boat! My son and I rode in a pre-production model back in July. They make a built-in ballast system that should be plenty for a while. My son surfed behind it and it made a huge wake without any ballast at all. We had about 5 adults in the boat. I'll post a pic to my gallery.

I'm pretty sure the hulls are different. Their site says they have further refined the convex V, and the bow is deeper. The 22v is 21'8" and the ve' is 22'0"

the 22vé has more of a curve towards the transom- so it sits lower, displacing more water, and creating a bigger wake than a 22v w/ the same amount of weight (and at the same speed). dont know how the shape of the wake differs... yet.

dogbert, the 22ve is a tiny bit longer than the 22v no real major difference

you've seen them side by side?

Ruune, ya I have and the ve is definitely longer. I think they also said the rocker is different for better wake and handling.

you said there is little difference- thats why I questioned it. The rocker in the hull is indeed a bit different, but so is the transom, engine compartment, dash, windshield, interior, tower, glove box, ballast system, and total weight distribution.

I didn't really mention the other differences since they are more aesthetic, the size and rocker are the key differences between the boats.
