Drag time, when getting up?
I am looking at buying an 03 mobius, and was wondering if there was good acceleration with this boat. I have skied MC and SN and am just wondering how the pull/acceleration will compare?
I want to know, do you drag through the water, or do you "pop" right up. I believe it has the 310 efi engine.
Thanks for the help.

Sine it is a v-drive, would that affect the pull that it has? I am a beginning wakeboarder, and the other guys that I ski with are slightly better than I am. Additionally, we like to take a barefoot run every once in a while, and my brother is a good slalom skier and decent at the single trick ski.
I am just trying to make sure that I won't be disappointed with this boat. I want to make sure that I have found a boat that will meet my expectations, not let me down.

Also, there is a lake down in Southern IL that has a nuclear power plant on it. If I were to go out, that would be the place. Wet suit, or dry suit manditory!

I have an 04 Mobius LSV with the 5.7L 340 HP EFI engine and it pulls hard with no drag. I spend most of my time wakeboarding now so pull is not a concern for me anymore.
