Awesome! Glad you like the boat. It looks awesome. I have a buddy in a Malibu 23 LSV and he has considered switching to the G23 is why I asked. I have been trying to tell him to check out a Supra. He mostly surfs.

The wake is massive!! A lot smother transition than the previous SE, similar to the SA. However it just had that extra kick that the SA doesn't. Having the G before this it WAS my favorite wake, the SE is everybit as good or better!!!! As far as the surf wave goes, I have always been under the impression the Supra wave is better than the G no questions asked.

I will say this, if you wake board with any weight, you will want to opt for the 550. If you just surf the new 450 should work great. I was turning on average 3900 RPM wakeboarding and 3400 surfing (100% full surfing) JUST MY OPINIONS AND OBSERVATIONS...…


Now moving to the inside. WOW the new vinyl is all they say and more. It has a super soft feel and the Chill Tech (CT) works like no other. It was sunny and 95* all day on the river and never had to put a towel down. The new dash and electronics seem to be very user friendly. After using them all day yesterday I feel I have a good handle on it.

the 450 with the 1.76 could be the bomb for everything to be honest. The initial reports back on the Makaii are nuts. 3400 ish surf RPM with big big weight. I love me the 575 and thats what mine has in it but the 450 is no joke with that reduction change.....

You may be right. Hopefully it is and will be the motor of choice soon.

Come on man, give us some surf pictures..

yeah, what he said and wakeboard wake pics:)

I'm so stoked on this ride Rance! Being from UT and 5600' boating I've heard the Makai with the 450 was AMAZING, one day I will find out.
Would like to see wake pics, just rode the SL and holy sh!t the wake was massive.

Sweet ride...Sounds like if you get the 450 now on the SE it comes with the 1:76 tranny, I am curious to hear how it works.

Is the 450 the 410 hp 452 ft.lb 460
Raptor or the 398hp 427 ft.lb 440 Raptor?
