2005 24V Limited Edition

[jjrtar0325]

Hi all, I am new to the site and am looking at purchasing a nice 2005 24V Limited Edition. It has many options and around 95 hours with the extreme trailer. There seems to be a little confusion around the model year. Did Tige make a 24VE Limited Edition in 2006? Lastly, what price range are we looking at, 30-35K? higher or lower? We had a 21' Supra Mariah. Any problems expected with the increased length? Thanks!

Is this the olinger boat? If so it's the 24v not the ve.

Shouldnt be any confusion, the last two digits of the hull ID will indicate the year. But yes, the "V" boats where still made in 06
.

In 06, Tige also released the "Ve" model and there are may differences between the "V" and "Ve" models.

"Riders Addition" was just an option level and not a model.

That model and year seem to be a pretty popular boat. Guys have been extremely successful at producing enormous surf and wakeboard wakes. The 95 hours seems to be way low though. Where are you located?

One of the easiest ways to tell if it is a Ve or V is if it has the rear walk through and activity center, if so it is a Ve.

I have more information. It is a 2005 24V with 135 hrs, 6.0L chevy engine and Samson tower. Taking a look at it this week-end. Any special things I should look for?

I would be really concerned with 135 hrs for a 7 year old boat.
It has sat idle for way too long and that usually equates to problems in the future.

Is it a 6.0 marine power engine or a PCM that also makes a big diffrence. The PCM IS a much better power plant for many reasons.
