I never said you can't tube or sit in a cove or sandbar. I just couldn't see spending extra $$$ for all the ballast bag system, specific hardware that wake boats come with and less usable swim platform. That's what made the Yamaha more appealing to me. Yes, a wake boat will pull a tuber. Yes, a wake board has a swim platform. You are correct sir.Why do people think you can’t tube and sit in the cove and sandbar on a wake boat? I mean yea it would kind of be a waste if that’s all you used it for and die hard wakeboarders will shake their head at the tube but if you like the boats or styling a wake boat is perfectly content with pulling a tube or sitting still. In fact that’s the majority of what we have used ours for to this point with some rope surfing mixed in and have loved it.
No its a tiller for planting underwater cropswhat is that twirly looking thing under the boat? Is that a fan for the fishies?

Didn’t mean for it to come off rude to set you off or anything. My comment was more a general statement I see brought up from time to time about wake boats on here and your post just reminded me of it is all.I never said you can't tube or sit in a cove or sandbar.

It’s an anticavitation device that prevents you from getting stuck on the water when you run over fishing line, a cute twig or even a tiny plastic bottle cap LOLwhat is that twirly looking thing under the boat? Is that a fan for the fishies?

I agree. Even if i was into more watersports, the fat asses on these boats turn me off. Sorry. I like a small sleek butt!I know this won't be popular with the wake boat set, but I find these boats ugly. Like shoe boxes on the water. I think the sterns of the jet boats are so much more inviting and useable - which is the attraction many have for them. I find the sterns of these boats uninviting and flat out ugly.
Cool color scheme....there I said something nice! LOL
Now THAT'S funny..I don't care who you are!
