I personally LOVE mine. Makes a great wave for surfing and handles really well. We have had so much rain here in Texas that has kept me off the water so I havent been able to test the wakeboard wake yet... But I hope I get a chance to get out this weekend and test it. The TAPS 3 system is awesome! -
Exact same hull as the Z1....its a great boat!Comment

Thanks for the replies. I appreciate it

We only have 15 hours on ours but so far have been very happy. Lots of content to cover on the boat so let us know if you have specific questions or at least share what you are looking to do (what water sports, size of crew, features you're seeking, etc).

So we pulled the trigger and love the boat. Having issues with surf set up on starboard. First few times out tap 3, surf at 11. Full in stern and 25 in front. Was fine. Now today same group, same set up and totally washy. Port side was perfect. Any ideas? How are you running your surf set up. Thank KS in advanceOriginally posted by nmriordan View Post

We run 100% on all bags. Surf taps at 1 and reg taps between 2-4 depending on length/steepness desired. Has been pretty good on both sides but I will admit we've run port 90% of the time.
We do put most of our passengers on whichever side we are surfing.

Also, what speed are you running? We have found 11.1-11.3 to be the best for us. Pretty firm wave with those speeds.
We have surged that set up without any passengers or extra ballast and its workable. But, if you add passenger weight or an extra fat sac on the port bench it can throw a killer wave.

10.2. I will try 11.1. Thank you so much. We pretty much surf port as well, but a few friends are goofy foot and we just cannot get it right. Appreciate the feedback.Originally posted by nmriordan View Post

I'm looking at purchasing as well and was curious what your general specs are? 360 vs 400? Are there any features that you didn't get that you really wish you would have?Comment
-
I have the 360 and it seems to have plenty of power. As far as options go, I'm not sure what your dealer has on the boat to begin with but mine came with just about everything on it.Originally posted by BurnMac42 View Post
The only thing i would recommend is make sure the software is updated on the active touch screen before you loave the dealer. Oh and double check your canopy..... when I got home and folded mine out it needed to have some adjustments.
If your on the fence about it get out on the water in one and see how good the wave is, play with all the different options and I'm sure you will fall in love with it!Comment

We got ours almost loaded up. Stuff we added that we've really enjoyed are transom remote (good for when we cove out), a switch to toggle the tower speaker amp on and off (my neighbors appreciate that), rev 10's (1 pair was plenty for us), under water led light (looks great when getting one last surf run in at dusk), flush kit/strainer (important for our lake).

Did anybody get the Bimini with or without the 2 ft extension? Trying to find pics of the bimini actually open vs the 2 ft extension and having a hard time getting pics....the wife is a redhead and the bimini is her absolute must on the list and I'm trying to determine if the 2 ft extension is worth it...Comment

I have the normal bimini and if I had it to do again I would get the extension (my old dealer quoted $1600 CAD to add it later).
My reasoning is this - even if you only get a bit of rain, it gathers on the bimini. When you accelerate all the water drains off the bimini and DIRECTLY on the lap of your rear passengers.
Having the long one will be in the way a bit when entering the cockpit but I don't think it would take long to get used to it.
