The G21 is Here!

[wakerider107]

Do you think the 450 is worth the extra money, or the 409 is sufficient?

I think the 450 would be a waste unless you plan on slamming it. Even if you add some extra ballast, the 409 won't be sluggish since the NCRS helps with planing and tight turning.

Nice 9. The wake does not look so big or well defined but it can be the video. Is it bigger than your 230´s?

It's bigger than my 230 is with 2,500lbs. The G wake is deceiving though since the transition is so much longer than the 210/230, it's hard to tell unless you actually get out in the boat or ride it. The wake isn't as much of a wall like the 210/230. Not to mention it was a windy day and filmed with a cell phone :P

Hi Jeff,
Tell us a bit more about the wake compared to for example the 210´s or the 230 you have owned.
thanks

I have a 230 that I load up pretty heavy and the G21 wake is completely different. Very G23 like, size wise. Maybe a little less transition and definitely a steeper lip at the top. Even more effortless to ride than the G23, atleast for me.

I didn't really look, but with the big 17x17 prop and the 2:1 V-drive, it wasn't super high or anything. I can probably get the numbers from the factory if you like.

Yeah I would be pretty curious how that combo worked out. My 210 with 3k and a 1235 is at 3400 at 23mph. My buddies star with 3k and a aggressive 15" prop turns 4k which isn't too good for fuel use or motor longevity.

What kinda rpm where you turning in the 409 and 343 at boarding speed?

I spent several days in several of them last month. I was in one with a 550, one with a 409, and one with a 343. They all performed fine. The 2:1 V-drive makes the smaller engines perform quite well. We were running full factory ballast and 6 - 10 people in all of them.

I would also like to know if anyone has any G21 experiences, photos etc. I have one ordered for May delivery.

[josemolino]

Hi Jeff,
have you finally have the opportunity to ride the G21 with the 343hp? Or any other trial?
Anybody else can share more G21 experiences? (just to cut with the trailer height non-ending discussion)

It is a friggin big 21' boat. I am sure they thought about it. Between their engineers and vendors probably could not get it lower in time for production.

Assuming the top of the windshield is less than 8 feet on the trailer then there's an easy answer. I.e., Who needs a stinkin' tower anyway? If you merit a G21 level (surf) boat you can just do a reverse ollie grab off the platform for your start. :-)

I wanna see a G with a deck mount Bimini!!

I have the F2 hitch on my Boatmate and was considering trying what's in this video. Wonder how much it will lower the height.

Maybe worth doing some research on
