Hi All!

Recently was out on Lake Erie on a LX210 and decided I want one! Seeking and not seeing a lot of these listed for sale anymore, so anyone recommend something similar within the 10k-15k price range? Looks as if the AR210 is the same model, but with wake tower? Open to suggestions as this would be first boat for family and I.

Thanks!

There are two models of AR210, a 2 cycle model that is the same as an LX210 (or LS200-no bolt on swim platform), and a 4-Cycle model that is actually a full 21' boat (the 2 cycle is actually a 19.5' boat with a bolt on swim platform in the X model).

I would look for a late model 230 series boat over the 2 cycle boats. Don't get me wrong, I owned an LX210, and it was a lot of fun, but they are smoky at idle. On the flip side they go like a bat out of hell! I moved up to a 230 from the LX210 as we wanted a full windshield and room for more friends (in particular kids and all the stuff you bring out on the boat...tubes, boards, coolers etc!)
