Sport Natique 200 Review for Wakeboarding

[bwashburn15]

At the beginning of the summer My family bought a new 2014 Sport Natique 200 team edition. My brother and I are big into wake boarding but we live on a very small wake so the G23 was too big as well as the 210 or 230. My brother and I were a little disappointed because we wanted the biggest wake possible, just like every adrenaline-junky teen wants and the Sport 200 is a ski hull and smaller. We improvised and purchased a 750lb ballast bag and a 350lb ballast bag, along with the built in 750 in the boat already and a few people inside. All in all, the extra 1850lbs made the BIGGEST difference. Before we got the bags, the wake was nothing special. After, the pop was amazing and it had a beautiful ramp to it. I know it probably was not even close the the G23 wake, but it made my brother and I very happy. We made a video of our fun summer on the boat so you should check it out! I hope this quick review helped any potential Boat-buyers out there that are looking for a perfect cross-over. Heres the video and enjoy!:

Aw that sucks! Why?

Where did you place the 750 and 350 sacs

[bwashburn15]

I placed the 750 in the middle ( right in front of the back bench seats) and it depended on how many people were in the boat for the 350. If there were a decent amount of people, i put it up the walkway to the front, and if there was not a lot i put it on the back seats

Props for the 200V but no pics of the boat? C'mon Man!

Cool video nevertheless.

Thanks, for wake surfing did you use the extra sacs and if so where.

You guys are pulling off more tricks behind the little 200V wake than anyone accomplishes on our lake with their 21-23' wake boats!

For Wake-surfing we put the 350 on the left seats and the 750 in the middle, pushed as much to the side we wanted it to be on.

Haha thanks man! The things i would do with one of those boats

I removed the storage compartment hard tanks, plumbed 750 with quick disconnects in each side. Give more room, can still put vests on top of the full 750. Also, there is carpet under the hard tanks....once I removed the tanks, took some cleaning to get it "fresh".
