You are the person mocking my hobbyand saying its pointless and I lust after RIBs, what sort of reaction do you expect? If you want to joke about your own mates fair enought, but to people you don't know you should show some respect. Maybe its you who should grow up.

I'll ask the question again ...

Does anyone know what the differences are in terms of build quality etc between Mastercrafts/Malibu/Air Nautiques?

Unfortunately you demonstrated lack of social skills probably will ensure that those who have the info that you are after choose not to share it with you.

And to be fair I don't just mock wakeboarding, I mock hardboating in general. Which rather fits in with the tone of this site doesn't it. I mean JF has never mocked Ribnobbers has he.
Anyway, Sorry to hijack your thread again but in conclusion......

I thought you were slating RIB's .. but you are a RIBnobber (as you put it) yourself ... It all makes sense now !

hi, i have only had experiences with tige and mastercraft both used on the sea, and the tige in particular has many problems with couping with the brithish seas and has had a lot of moeny reparing and maintaing it,i would say that the master craft is of much higer quality and a bit more sea going as the hull is not as flat but the price does reflet that.

sorry if it didnt make sense it was late!

Of the three ski boats you mentioned, i would put my money on a Mastercraft.

Hi, thanks for the advice, I'm thinking the MC Maristar might be a good choice, some talk on wakechat suggests this makes a good wakeboaring boat in the sea as well as lakes. Plus it has a V drive as opposed to Direct drive which means more weight at the back for a better wake.

this might be worth a look runs 55 mph and very well made
