Well, finally time to upgrade to something bit more surfable for the family as everyone except myself has officially dropped wakeboarding and really progressed on surf side pretty much outriding the current wave. I kinda stopped following all the new Models in super detail in the 2013-2019 era as had some different priorities ……Test drove handful of boats to narrow some things down. BU 22MXZ , Bu 23LSV or MC XT22 XT23 as I still primarily wakeboard . Centurion is on the high list ( used to be rep ) but. Zero availability in Midwest. Bow rise in the MC and the MXZ were like a shuttle launch at surf speeds . Was really honed in on 230 , but the G21 wakeboard wake takes it and I’m still wakeboarding 80% of my water time. Bu 23LSV is still on table. I haven’t surfed a g21 in while in deep water but all things point to the g 21 having better surf wave than the 230 unless you’re really stuffing the 230 to max . See no reason for me to be 230 because our crew is 6 at most , 2-4 consistently so g21 out of box and ease of setup whole retaining all storage is really appealing. And g21 will handle chop just as good on bigger lake. A G23 is just too much to haul around. I’m in price range of 14’’s -20’s I know the G23 had little hull tweak 16 but I don’t recall if there was any change to g21. The spray spray off the bow area on windy days was little issue , and I can’t recall if they ever made a tweak to address that. 16 iI believe is also went to the rotary dial instead of having to reach for Linc menu , which is huge plus for adjustments. But that’s pretty much all the things I’m aware of. Any big tower height changes ? Any NSS plate changes in that era ? With 2:1 tranny seem like base engine seems plenty according to most I can find.
