Hey Grady! You'll love the move to a Moomba. We went from our 1st boat, a '88 Chapparel 187, to our '08 OBV. It was like upgrading from a VW bug to a Porsche. I still crack a smile every time I start my Moomba.

Flint Creek may be more fun than Paul b.. Paul B on weekends is CHOPPY
Go early or weekdays!

Hey Grady welcome to the board and whatever you decide to get be it an LSV or Outback V what an awsome upgrade! Good luck.

[Grady]

Thanks guys, I can't wait til signing day. lol

You will like either one, but depending on how you intend to use it and if you can afford it you might seriously consider an XLV. I have an 06 OBV (and love it), but I kind or regret not going bigger for surfing and occupancy reasons. Either way you win.

Welcome to the family! Be sure to post pictures once you get her!

What colors are you looking at?

Welcome, Grady! I'm a former Bayliner, Ski Nautique, Malibu and Chaparral owner and I can say without a doubt that this Moomba forum is hands-down the nicest, most helpful group of people I've ever had the pleasure to communicate with. Enjoy your new Moomba! I just bought a 2005 Outback and love it. It's the perfect family ski boat (that I can responsibly afford). LOL!

I like that: "Responsibly Afford".

MOOMBA: The responsibly affordable inboard you've been searching for!

I'm looking more into the lsv for surfing. I can only ski right now, but plan to wakeboard and try the surfing this season. I been looking at a lot of vids on surfing it looks interesting.lol I havnt seen anyone surf behind obv, does it produce a enough wake for surfing? We havnt decided on a "must-have" color, still looking at all the options and styles. I think its call the web design on the mobius, not sure what models or year it comes on, but I like the look. We're going on a cruise next week after that we'll be looking harder for the right one. If we dont spend all the money.

some will tell you the '09-'10 OBV was MADE TO SURF. check out the pics from Ed G and the wave he was getting from the stock GIII system.

there are plenty that have added ballast to the '07-'09 OBV and surf. I think it was the '02-'06 Mobius LSV is the same hull as the '07-09 OBV and plenty of people also surf with that boat.
