However, it is not near the level of the WakeWorld EPIC post. If you haven't stumbled upon it, head over to WW and search for it. It would be a good Saturday morning read with your favorite cup of coffee.

haha I posted a link to that thread here a few weeks ago when someone was asking about a Tige for sale a dealership that looked and sounded an awful lot like the one in that thread (and it was the same stealership)

What happened to your ad on onlyinboards? Went to show the family tonight and it was gone. Did you get a buyer?

Here's a few Z3s and a RZ2 for ya. Only a few hours away.

Haha, hey Nick. I steered em that way a while back too. Tyrell's family boat would be killer(red black and stone z3)
We ever going to get some boating weather?? Finally see 70 on the forecast next week.

Welcome to "philosophy corner" with Dakota.

I thought you were really making a lot of sense spending $30-35K less and getting a 24Ve that performs as good as or better than all these Z3s. Plus they are just pretty. Slap that cash into a college fund, pay off a car, or go to Vegas and bet it all on black (maybe not that last one).
I am all about the wave. If I can make a better wave for a lot less money and have similar ride, room, reliability, etc, I am doing it all day long! There is not a way in heck you have $30K worth of additional fun on the more expensive boat.

I think there is something cool about having something that costs less that out performs all the shiny new stuff. I have always gotten a kick out of that. Kind of perverted, I guess?

[dakota4ce]

The only caveat: you're just flat out rich, and don't give a rats *** about $30K. Then we have a whole new scenario, and I would love to help you boat shop (cough cough RZX2 cough G23 a-hem cough X23).

[UNSTUCK]

Had that one 24ve not fallen through we would have been set. Every other one I look at is not as nice and most are more expensive. Trying not to feel like I'm settling. It's getting hard though.

My old one is an 8+ out of 10 and even has the POS Tige SpeedSet eliminated so as to never cause a crappy surf speed again (I installed a brand new Hydrophase GPS speed control). And the sound system absolutely slams.
Gel coat is very good, seats are very good. Motor is rock solid. I purchased a brand new cover.

I would guess it is under 40K easily. I guess the only thing I cannot account for is what has happened to it since it left my house 16 months ago. From what I hear, it has basically not moved.

I would give it a look? As far as surf waves go, it absolutely could not be set up better for a listed 24Ve. I copied every move Ragboy made on his.

Basically what I am saying is, I had a bunch of extra money in that hog and someone should be using it! LOL

I figured Boise isn't too far from SLC so would help out with what they have down there. Didn't realize the one was Tyrell's.
The days have been hit and miss for sure. We are scheduled to do our lake test FINALLY on Thursday since the weather is saying 80! Last couple times had it scheduled it was a crappy & rainy day.

24ve is a hell of a boat... but out performing z3's? Maybe Pre-Avx...... and I would say that might even be a stretch..

I can attest to having 30K worth of more fun in a new boat, but like everything here I guess its a matter of opinion.

Outperforms is just a grossly exaggerated statement no offense.. Been on a killer VE Or two and I dont know if I would say they outperform the newer stuff. Tech has gotten better, hulls have gotten better and thus the waves have gotten better and will continue to do so...

[Germaine Marine]

I will say I agree though that if the budget is 40K my first and most likely last look would be a VE
