2018 Moomba Craz
I just put a hold on an 18' Craz today. The boat gets in on the 13th. The last boat I had was a 08' X-15 that we sold 2 years ago. After being around a Supra SA last summer I am completely sold on Supra. I just don't want to spend the money on the Supra. How does the Craz compare as far as surf, board, and general comfort? Anything I should watch out for or be aware of on the Craz?

You'll love it. It's a really versatile boat. It surfs and wakeboards VERY well. Clean wake at low speeds for the kids, big wake for the adults. It's way more wake than I can handle with my few inverts at 22mph and full ballast. I dont mean full stock ballast though, you will likely want to upgrade the bags and work it into the deal. The surf wave is great too.
There are a number of guys on the forum with this boat that have been fine tuning since 2016, so if you have any specific questions, ask away.

Our biggest frustration with our X-15 was the wake whether surfing or boarding. The 18' Craz comes stock with 3000# of ballast plus surf tabs and wake plate. Will I need to add weight to the ballast? None of us are near pro level but we do want a clean wake to ride with.
From what I have seen from the interior it is not near as nice as a Supra. It is as nice if not nicer than our old X-15 so I am not too concerned about the interior.

My first Moomba was a Craz, you will love it. You will want to add a little more weight for surfing as most will say. I just had an extra 240 in lead and it was enough for me to surf and wake. I expect you to report back on how much nicer and easier the Craz is rather then the X15. Don't forget to use the launch feature when going wake so the boat gets all the help it can to plane. It's a lot of weight for wakeboarding, the wake is money.

I have 18 Moomba Craz.
Ofcoarse I bought the cheap Hyperlite Broadcast. My wave kinda sucks and the push is right behind the platform.
I have read the forum and will soon be upgrading to 1140 in rear lockers and throwing some lead in the front bow.
Which board do you recommend? I'm 6' 1" and 225lbs. Thanks.

I just switched to the Hyperlite Time Machine. It will be perfect for your size and weight as I am almost the exact same. Fins are customizable to have a tighter or looser ride. We have been running with the rear ballast full (no additional weight) and the front ballast at about 50 to 65%. We have plenty of push to drop to the back of the wave and still recover.2018 Moomba Craz

I'm 6'3" and 215lbs and have the larger Broadcast and it surfs fine with stock ballast, I actually like the board and it's a great boat board for new surfers to use. Play with the wave and if you have a small crew you will need more ballast. I would look at the Enzo bags or custom Mojo bags. Your Craz has 900's in the rear, I think the 1140's only fill to 1000lbs, maybe a bit more, but not a lot of gain for the cost. I have a '18 Mojo with custom 1270 bags, they extend under the bench so you lose some storage but they make a huge difference.

Hmm I wonder if the Mojo bags would fit in my Craz? Now I have started rethinking my whole idea and thinking about the Enzo 1450's Just seems like a lot of work. I will likely have to upgrade my ballast pumps as I have the G3 pumps. I really like my broadcast and it carves good. I have a very small pocket with the current setups I have tried. I just got 500lbs of lead and going to mess with it to see if it will make a difference on placement.
