This is amazing! Thank you for sharing, Adam! ✨
Would be curious to hear why you're not a fan of the centurions? I've always thought of centurion and tige v-drives from the mid 2000's as being far ahead of a ton of the other manufacturers in this era as far having hull shapes conducive to surfing. They both have heavier dry weights, as well as deeper V hulls that in tandem displace more.
its not so much a wave thing for me, and again this is just personal preference, but their build quality on both Centurion and Tige was not great from the boats i've used and been on in that time frame.
Would you recommend the x15 over a older 1999-2005 X30? Also, is the 06-11 X30s preferred over the X15? I believe they have same hull design
I see a number of 2016 -2017 Heyday WT-1 models (center console) that are at the 30k mark…Are those decent entry level boats for surfing or would you recommend going for an older boat like the MasterCraft mentioned here? Excellent video - Great info!
Great video! Would love more like this but looking at multiple boat listings in this same price range. Its hard to know all the little nuances of boat brands and models. For example, didnt know the Natique 211 is a crossover boat til you mentioned it. So would be good to know more models and which are best to convert. Going through various listings may be a good way.
feel free to email us at support@swellwake.com if you have a boat you're considering as well!
I am curious of your ranking of boat manufacturers in this price range?
Good next video!
Whats the approximate cost to do the ballast retrofitting you described on a boat like this?
It would be about $1500 in parts and about 4-5 hours of labor for a shop to do it.
