Episode 2026 - If you need massive space, a walkway, a great wakeboarding wave, and the ability to surf, a forward drive is a pretty great choice. The layout in these boats are much more convenient for walking throughout the cockpit, and you do not lose any of the features you would be looking for in the V-drive. I believe if you want the biggest monster Surfwave out there you are still going to have to pay over 200,000 dollars for a monster boat. However, if you have a family and are looking to have fun out on the water I really don't think there are any regrets in buying a forward drive. It has a comparable wave to many lower priced V-drive boats and if you add weight, just like they do on every V-drive out there your wave will keep getting bigger.
