LSV vs. XLV

[yearround]

The main reasons we chose the LSV is that it is the only boat with a capacity of 12+ and a length that would fit in my garage.

I got my 07 LSV in 08 and I bought it because of color and price. Just so happened to be a solid red and the wife liked that.

I think we all could argue which is better and why.
I am happy with the LSV wake and I don't want a ton of people in my boat (just a ton of weight).
I don't surf, And I don't ski....So no opinion on that part. But I would put my wake up against any other Moomba wake and I think it would hold it's own.

I just want my LSV to continue being the workhorse I bought it for.

And again that's just my 2cents....lol

The 09/10 OBV is rated at 12 person cap. and at 20' fits nicely into almost any garage. And can go on any lake ( some have length restrictions). It was a nice all around choice and the price tag was unbeatable.

^^ I agree. I think the 20ssv is the same basic design and I can't even imagine 12 in mine. we have had 7 adults and 3 kids once and it was packed..
I try to limit it to 5 and 2 at the most.

You Are Correct Ed, 12 In Any Watersport Boat Seems Like Way Overcrowded To Me, But It Is Rated For 12.

I got the XLV cause it can hold more beer.

Outback, Ouback V, LSV, or XLV - doesn't matter! They all "hold more beer" when I'm a passenger

Beer can act as ballast, however, you're losing ballast throughout the day

I've had 12 (mostly kids) in the Outback LS. It was crowded. Hardly any room for beer that day.
