Were there any changes over the years?Wife really like the walk through and 90% of the time it's just the wife daughter and I on it for a quick lap around the lake after work.We are open on others but always seem to come back to the 211.I notice on some models the newer boats have round floor storages,vs the squared off.From what i can see at least online that's not the case on the 211.Were there any that the base motors were more hp,any hull changes etc.I know the 210 seems to had changed hull in 07.Thanks Aaron

You should be able to find all the information you are looking for in the "Manual/Brochures" section for 2005-2010 211's. -
no hull changes, prop rotation reversed in 07. I have the smallest engine but I have no ballast tanks. Only time it struggles a little is getting my 300 lbs up on slalom. It can do it, just struggles a little. LOVE my 211 as a good all around family boat when your normal crew is 6 or less. I've had 10 on it but don't want to do that everyday.

Which rotation would be considered more desirable pre 07 or 07 and later? Wife and I are both regular footed,and have never surfed but would like to.Is the base motor the 343hp? We have a older Malibu DD that's a 300hp mpi motor that would pull your arms off,albeit I'm sure it's half the weight.Comment

the 07 and up would be better for you then for the prop rotation. I don't think it is the greatest at surfing, but it is achievable with extra ballast. I have been considering adding the Gosurfassit, or the one from wake-worx.com.Originally posted by aaronmt View Post
There was a base engine of a Chevy pro-sport/Apex motor (still PCM) that was only 275hp, but most of the boats seem to have the Excalibur 330hp Chevy motor. Another minority upgraded to the ZR6 (6.0L Chevy) for the closed cooling and hp bump up to 375. I have never had a problem with the 330 Excal, I did put a 1235 Acme on it, so it pulls pretty strong out of the hole.Comment

I have the base 275 engine 😉. As for prop rotation, 07 and later pull to the driver side during backing, which I prefer during docking. 06 and before pull to port.

The way our dock is it sounds like 07 and up would be best as well.Once we put a lift in it won't be a issue.Did other models change that year as well or Is it specific to the 211?I'm not married to the 211 quiet yet although i do like ot for what we need,however I'm still keeping my eyes open.Weve always had fast boats(80-100mph) so the last couple years slowing down has kinda brought the enjoyment of boating back to us.Originally posted by SkiTower View PostComment

How is your top speed with the acme 1235??Originally posted by nukemustang

I swapped my 1235 off of my SV211 because the top speed was barely 40mph (from what I remember). We like to ski (and very occasionally Barefoot) as much as we like to wakeboard/surf and the prop wash / rostertail with the 1235 was not fun as skiing speeds (great out of the hole though). Went with acme 537 and its proved to be just good enough for all 3 events. We just use standard factory ballast and have 5 in the boat typically. I have Excal 330 and my top speed is approx. 41-42ish with the 537.Originally posted by mikenbike211 View PostComment

My 2008 has the PCM 343, we added 400lb bag in each rear locker and a swell wakesurf creator and it surfs as well as my buddies new Axis.
