I just got off the water, my local dealer had a 211 that's going to be used in the Nor Cal Boat show, we took it out for a Demo with some other people.
One guy Ski'd behind it I wasn't there to see, But he said he owns a Ski Nautique, He said the wake behind a 211 is Ok and ski-able so I guess that’s a good thing, He said he had never ski'd behind a V-drive so he couldn’t compare it to anything. The Adjustable plate on the back was weird I didnt expect to see what I did, And the amout it move's (very little would suprise you, that it actually does anything. But it does! When you lower it when the boats on Plane it drops the bow quite abit and flattens the wake out. Its a handle that looks like a 2nd throttle just abouve the stock throttle. Just move it forward or back for ski or wakeboard. The hull has lot's of trick's and a step to it.
My self and 3 other people wake boarded behind it, It has a nice clean wake, The wake seam’s like the size and shape of my Air when its fully weighted with stock Ballast and a Extra 500 Lb fat sack in the trunk,
I drove It , It seemed very nice and easy to drive, Handles like a 210 only a little better, I say that because it sits higher in the water and keeping things dry inside seam’s allot easier because of the added high profile
There was Lots of storage we had 2 Large wakeboards under the passenger seat and all our dry suits ropes and extra towels,
The rear Locker with the walk threw transom has a small locker you could fit a small board and gear back there.
The walk there was kind of nice! I stood there and helped people out of the water ya know rolled up the rope and grabbed their boards as they came in. I liked it because you don’t feel like your stepping on some ones Vinyl and messing things up (I has shoes on) It was cold out, But because it not squishy Vinyl and padding you feel more comfortable standing. and I felt out of the way standing there, the rider could use the sun pad all to them self's
The rear swim platform was nice and large, with a little step in the rear of the boat Molded into the transom for your *** to as you put the board. It had traction pads in the steps back there also. The Stainless steel handles that look stupid in the back of the boat I didn't get to try out, I’m so use to just hopping up on to the swim platform like everyone else.
Over all the boat seemed cool. I think people will like it.
I think if your in the market for a Super, This is not your boat, the 211 seems more like a cross over ski/wakeboard boat that the AIR is.
It seems to Family boat to get me excited with the High Profile ECT.
But if your looking for a SUV type of boat with Nautique on it then this is your's.
