Rookie went to boat show: HELP v. LSV
LOL
The wife and stepson fell in love with an LSV.
We live on beautiful Lake Guntersville. Stepson is 19.
We have owned a Fish/Ski, a pontoon and a waverunner along with the standard jon boat.
We really liked the boat. I just worry it is too much boat for a group that has never owned an all out ski boat. Stepson does love to knee board and I believe he would like to surf and wake.
Thoughts? Be honest. Jumping in too deep? The dealer wants to set up a time to bring one out to play with.
If we go all in, please suggest options for 42 year old rookies.

You will fall in love with the LSV. Go for it!
Just get a few pointers on reverse and docking since there is no steering control in reverse. The stern will want to kick to the right in reverse. Not a problem just a learning experience with an inboard. After a few times it becomes second nature.

The LSV can throw a really good surf wave when weighted correctly.

Do it. LSVis a great boat. We went from an 18 I/O to the LSV last year and could not be happier. I think it is easier to drive and maintain than my I/O was.
I've got a 15 and 17 year old girls and they love it. We ski, wakeboard and surf.

That there, might just be one of the all time best quotes on this forum. Wonder if SC will work this into the 2014 catalog?

After using it one time you'll ask yourself why haven't I already done this. You'll love it.

Ross where are you located?
I bought my LSV 2 years ago and it is my first boat ever and is definitely not hard to handle or anything. It's sound like you have way more boating experience than me so I think you should be good to go!

I did the same thing RD and Sicktc did...Year before last we bought a Moomba LS. Was my first boat. Sure, I had been around boats my whole life since my dad had them but this one was mine. We sold it after the first summer. Then the next spring we bought a 2011 LSV and it has been the greatest thing I've ever bought. We've met so many people and have made so many memories in just the first summer and are anxious to pick it up again here in a couple of months. Welcome to the family and watch out for the mod bug...when he bites he bites hard and doesn't let go!
This will be our wave this summer:
