Yes! Keep up the story! I like hearing your story and how it compares to mine which started about 25 years prior to yours... Our paths have been very different when comparing technology developments in tow boats, sports equipment, and in water sports themselves. 😎
Thank you Kurt! Wow, 25 years, I bet you have some great tips.
I love the wakeboat ownership series! One cool video would be to talk about what kind of accessories you use/equip the boat with. Bumpers, dock lines, anchor, etc. etc!
Thank you Matthew! Great idea, I will make a note. I have several videos planned so may be later this year.
Loving the channel! I am currently trying to do as much research as I can in the cost of buying and maintaining a wakeboat for my family so I know what I can expect and also what I can and can’t afford. This would be used primarily for surfing and tubing. Looking forward to watching more!
Thank you Tyler! Glad I can help.
Good vid. I would like to add. Not all WB boats are 100k. There are plenty of options out there that offer great waves at more reasonable prices. Not to say they are cheap, 60-70k is a lot of freakin' money for a toy, but, if you are already commited to spend the money and u CAN AFFORD IT, then look at lower cost options. My first WB boat is a Moomba Mojo, 23', 2015, surf edition, bought new from dealer demo for
Thank you Rick! Great info!
I have a 2 years old Axis A20. I'm glad that I found your channel. subscribed!! 🤙
Me too! Glad I can help!
Hell yeah. Sea Ray 195 sport was my first wakeboard boat too! AND I have an Avalanche also! 😂🏄♂️ upgraded to a Centurion V-Drive.. still rolling the avalanche 🤷🏼♂️. No truck payment.
Nice!
Please keep the story going! I’m 29 right now and I feel the same way, talk about financing etc.
Thank you Rick! There are 5 more episodes so far and more to come, check out the other 5 right now if you want.
I'm 29 as well and looking at getting a boat within the next 5 years. These videos are very helpful!
Glad to hear my videos help, thanks for your support!
Sounds like I’ve kind of been in the same boat as you , just didn’t have the support from the wife . Yours had an excellent point . I just bought my 4 boat yesterday (2012 A22) with hopes it will help me get better and progress as well as gibe my kids the opportunities I never got. Keep up the good work on the videos.
That's awesome! I feel the same way. My daughter is going to have an opportunity I would've loved when I was younger.
In ‘94 my dad bought a Four Winns Horizon 190 for $14k cash. The registration stickers are almost a half inch thick on the hull. Countless friends, kids, grandkids etc have learned to ski and wakeboard on that boat. We had her out yesterday and it ran great. I guess my point is we’ve been boating for 26 years on the same boat. No loans, no payments, and we probably haven’t impressed anyone on the ramp or parking area but we’ve sure had a lot of fun.
Congrats to you for overcoming the desire for new things, haha! Very hard to resist.
I’d be lying if I said I haven’t been tempted though...looks like you’re having fun, keep the content rolling!
@@reedwymond5404 will do, thx!
We spend summers in Minnesota at the family cabin with a ‘96 Rinker 192 Captiva that has to-date served us well. Using it to pull the kids tubing and having them learn to ski/knee board/wake board. There’s interest in wake surfing so I’m considering purchasing a ‘96 Ski Nautique from a friend to set up for that purpose. I hope this doesn’t lead to a $100k boat, Lol.
WAKE MANN -
I appreciate that you found your passion and that you are pursuing it and that you have family support. Best wishes brother!
Please continuewith this series
This stuff is Gold. I also started from inboard outboard four years ago. Now on a 2017 Moomba. Much happier
Thanks! Congrats on your Moomba!
My family had a similar experience. Older Sea Ray turned into a 21 mlx and recently turned into a 22mxz. I didn't have the wife support you have had however she isn't against it either. I think watersports help build confident young adults that have different and higher expectations in life. My teenage daughters live for the water. Keep up the good work! Look forward to seeing your new ride!
That's a great way to look at way to look at it. I hope my daughter lives for the lake too. Thanks!
Amazing vid, keep pushing hard. Your vids make my day
Thank you!
Yea I would like to take a look at the financial part of this. How did you sell your first boat and into the next. We’re you upside down on the price when you sold ? Did you sell to a dealer or private party. Did they add what you owe to the price of a new boat. Credit scores everything
I sold my first boat, far from upside down. Next boat I traded in with plenty of equity. You have put enough down or make big enough payments to maintain your equity with a 15 year or higher loan especially on new boats. I may do a video to discuss this.
WAKE MANN I would love y to o see that video of how you progressed in boats. I currently have a boat and would love to be able to get the boat you have one day by doing what you did.
100% agree about having fun while you're young before tied down with marriage, kids, family life, etc which normally puts things like wake boats on hold for a good 5-10 years. No one lives forever so why wait until you're retired to finally enjoy your cash in the bank, you could die tomorrow and can't take it with you. While I don't condone being an idiot financially and not saving at all for retirement, but enjoy youth and your short time on this planet as much as possible.
Life is such all about working on balance. Live while you can and thanks for the comment Scott!
Great hearing your perspective! Wakeboats are super expensive but worth every penny in my opinion
Thank you Shawn! I agree.
Awesome video. Would like to see more videos like this. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you Harrison!
Keep it up bro!
Good idea doing this, people have many questions about what boat to get..
Thank you Brian!
We just bought our first wake boat. 2009 Mastercraft X45. Excited to get on the water again.
Congrats! Welcome to the wake boat community! Enjoy your season.
Enjoyed the video, I’m trying to convince the wife now that we need a wakeboard boat. Would love to hear your opinions on the other topics you discussed in this video.
Thank you Kenneth! More videos for this series coming soon.
At 44 I’m contemplating on buying a wake boat. I have 2 kids a 4 and 2 year old that I’d like to get involved in wakeboarding eventually. Not sure if I’m getting over my head. Thanks for the info!
You're welcome, I'm still wakeboarding at 40 with a metal knee, don't let your 40s stop ya.
@@wake_mann Hell yeah good for you bro! Still snowboard here except I don’t go full send anymore. Lol Glad you’re still shredding too!
Looking to buy our first surf boat and probably a 21” so that I can garage it at home.
What are your thoughts on the centurion Fi22
Great boat but I think its like 22.4 ft long. Hope you get it!
You lost me at 20 year loan lol
Yea, 20 year loans aren't for everybody but I think you will be interested to hear more detail on 20 year loans and when you should and shouldn't do it. Stay tuned.
Buy it while you are young! That is very true.
Yes it is.
