2023 Boat Shows

Also Bu confuses me with multiple hull options on a lsv. Why can't one hull design work for surf and wake boarding like every other OEM.

Any thought guys?

my cousin had 2 lsv's back from '15 to '18ish-both bought new. he absolutely hated them. said for the price the fit/finish looks good out of the gate but after 50hrs on the lake they both started to fall apart. he hated the bow rise and wakeboard wake would not clean up for his kids if you are running in the teens.
sold and bought a nautty gs22 and said it was night and day compared to the 'bu's. he did say that they both surfed very well stock.

personally I think bu succumbs to the investment community and will cut wherever possible. boutique builders like supra seem to have a better rep for longer term quality of materials.
my opinion anyway.

Value priced! I shopped a used 2019 Axis prior to getting my craz and interior quality is NOWHERE near a Moomba. As Far as wave goes, they get a great wave but bow rise has to be dealt with. I installed a taller seat post for my wife and she loved it. On Bu/Axis you cant do that because the seat mounts flat to the floor. Bow rise was the main reason we never even looked at a Mastercraft, they are worse than Bu. And the wedge while it adds and can really help fine tune a wave it is a huge fuel suck. The guys who have lsvs seem to rave about them. Apparently the 25lsv is quite the boat. But having not been on a Malibu since my 98 sunsetter, i cant tell you how they surf or ride or hold up. 30% off is a nice discount but probably still 140-150k?

Mastercrafts are truly overpriced. My personal issues list....

Cons:
1) ugly towers, just can't get over them
2) klipsch audio is garbage.
3)bow rise is 12-13 deg.
4) they still use carpet for flooring
5) dock star was crap, finally switched to thruster

Pros:
1) interior is nice, seems high quality

With boat show season over in my area, I'm starting to receive emails from "local" dealers. Bu dealer is working hard on me. If the wife was weak like me, I would be posting my MOJO for sale.

Any thought guys? I have had a lot help on this forum so I value some opinions here.
2022 90%-95% optioned 23 LSV full 6 year warranty on everything...30% off msrp.

Only thing really stopping me is interest rates (and wife)....when did they go to 7.25%?

We fell in love with a Nautique S23 at the show. It was $184k at 20% off. If we could be at %30 off, I think we would buy it.

Tell them that. You might end up with one.

Youre dead correct on 23LSV price. $148k includes prep but not tax.
I'm not behind on my mojo so I could make enough to warrant a down payment but interest rates are my big stopper.
Current payment $500 new payment would be $1k. My season is 4 months at best....not sure I can justify that.

I honestly can't believe a 2022 23lsv MSRP is $210k.

I would shop a low hour Supra.

Supra has more content/features at the less MSRP, you just won't get a 30% discount

I wont spend over 500/month on anything other than a house. Call me cheap but I can have a lot of fun on 500/mo. For 150k you could probably have a new or near new Supra like Larry says.
