SHOULD YOU BUY THE BARGAIN WAKE BOAT OR PAY MORE UP FRONT? My 2008 Malibu VLX Experience

- Sometimes a boat can seem like a great deal but if you're not paying attention, you may end up spending a lot more with the bargain boat than a more expensive boat. I live in California and saw this boat for sale in Florida. I got a really good deal but I didn't go over the boat enough or calculate what I'd need to upgrade. Hopefully this video helps you calculate what you're buying. If you have any questions, hit me up.

Great, informative video. My daughter gets a new boat from Centurion every year, so I haven't had to buy one. Ashley Kidd is sponsored thankfully.
We just picked up an 07' VLX thanks for sharing these videos and about Gabes, looking to do most everything you did to your boat over time. I don't care about the newer older over priced boats, these boats are the best in my book.
Whats the link to the MR cooling upgrade? Also you ever have a issue with turning the perfect pass off and boat still thinking its on and have a dead throttle?
Love your videos. I think I subscribed about a year ago and really enjoy your vids. Include some links in your video summary...I know, I know, I'm lazy but it would be helpful. Keep it up man~
I added a couple at the end
I've worked a ton of hours on my boat and neighbor's boat. I can imagine the hours you have into this boat.
What's interesting is boats are increasing in value, because the new ones cost so much.
Do you know how to access the transducer on that model?
Ok i got to ask as im near perris? who is the guys that does gel coat repair? I got a job for him. please let me know as i would like to take care of it asap.
You can actually get (semi) smooth water on Perris? Was there frequently in the late 70's and early 80's. Never saw decent water, so we bought a Hobie Cat - catamarans were a big deal in those days, the wind chop and boat wakes didn't make a difference.
Beautiful boat.
What is the song at the beginning of the video?
Perris is my neck of the woods. I'm in Menifee. Might need the info on your gel coat guy at some point.

Bought a 7 y/o Nautique with 560 hours. Had it 15 years, put on another 500 hours, sold it for only $2000 less than I paid. Should have kept it .☹
My boat has about 10 rev tens on his 1991 natuqe
Do you have a video for the Fulton installation?
Curious if your Boatmate trailer used a 2 bolt pattern (prior) vs the Fulton 3 bolt pattern. Great videos. I've been redoing my 2004 VLX
Thanks
Yes I do. Only thing different now is you can buy plate.
@@btuff Could you please include the link to your Fulton Winch video and the bolt patter plate for the winch? Thanks

@@btuff That's the winch I am installing. I saw you mentioned the winch in the " "Upgrading the trailer jack on a wakeboard boat trailer" but was curious if you had a video of the WINCH installation. Great Stuff
Hi, do you think you can give me the name of the shop you got the gel coat fixed . I want to get my 2008 lsv

BTUFF awesome thank you so much
I try for months to buy a 2016 and up G23 had to be supercharged due our lake elevation (shaver lake). Couldn’t find anything or it was sold already. So I said screw it an order a Paragon g23 will be here August. 🤦♂️
Had the same problem, sniped one off facebook marketplace 8 hours away
Sure you did haha
@@SuperKPettit send me your phone number or email and I’ll glad send you my invoice and any emails to my paragon order.
Now it’s all perfect do you want to sell it?
I’m scared to lol
Do a video on heyday wake boat very affordable and nice wake
I'll review one if someone gets one to me
I got laid in a hayday...... Said nobody
@@jakebarnier5188 so funny, why couldn't they be a little more creative in look if the Hay Day and the name.
Where did you get Bimini extension?
They don’t make them anymore.
$600 for a logo? screw that.
Your upgrades cost more than my 1993 supra ski boat cost me haha
Ride behind and in a Nautique. I’ll leave it there. Malibu is good but Nautique is on a different level. They are more for a reason. Performance.
I have a comparison with a G23
Need to get her tinted now lmao
Chaching!
Paris where?
Peris Ca.
You selling it ?
50k lol
Prob get it in this market
You could pay up too 1/4 million plus for a new Nautique loaded!

Ha, ha this site says starting at $312,000. It's out of control. I think they just know rich people will pay whatever for their toys. It can't cost that much to make.
@@justincoats7236 Yes I will stick with my 1989 Supra Ts6m skiboat with a waketower and 1100lbs of ballast bags and a wave creator work fine. My initial investment was less than a 1/4 of the amount of Sales tax paid in alone for that Nautique G25!! LOL
@@dealerservices3095 I had a 90 Malibu Sunseter. 5 buddies and me were on the lake from 8am to noon. We skied, wakeboarded, barefooted off my boom, and tried to surf, not enough weight. I mean everyone was in the lake 4 times. 5 different drivers of the boat. Laughing out butts off. Their lawyer, uncle shows up with 2018 23' Super Air Natique, "Who wants to surf behind me?" We park the boat and get in with him. It was military, "Don't do that, don't step on the seat, don't...." I surf and they are driving at 13mph so it didn't really work. It was just funny how much more fun my old beat up boat was.
@@justincoats7236 My old Supra is not rated for much weight at all. Took a while to get the weight & placement right in the boat including wake creator placement. Mind you it's not 1/4 million dollar size waves LOL but me i'm my buddies have decades of surfing experience surfing the small Florida east coast surf LOL and we weigh less than 170 lbs each. So luckily so our boat generates small peeling waves behind the boat with enough power we are able to surf it. Yet it is pretty close to the boat though .By the way we are over 55 years old and firing off behind the boat and or surf every weekend still! The only rule in my boat is SHRED and bring gas money lol! Your right 13mph is too fast for my boat too.
Closer to $350K in 2023.
Wakeboard boats are over priced!! Why do you think cable parks and winch systems were invented. My cousin rides pro for hyperlite and they dont even own a wake boat. They got a 27ft searay lol
Yes, they're insanely expensive. But they're not overpriced if people still buy them
has a brand new boat.. and upgrades 3x the cost of of what its worth..
I owe no money on it and the wave is legit.
Damn dude 😂😂😂
Oh shut up about the wheels already.... Nice looking boat by the way!
My boat costed less than your wheels😂
At least you’re on the water. That’s all that counts.
BTUFF I just noticed you guys have been to Lake Nacimiento that’s my local lake. Pretty cool
@@lukerogers4368 Love that lake.
Talking about wheel choice on an effing boat purchase...wtf.
Boats cost alot, huh? Especially if you dont have the talent to do any of the repairs yourself. Lol
Shut up troll
Never pay more for a boat just because it’s cheaper. Buy the cheaper boat so you have money left over for fixing everything that will be wrong with it.
