2018 X-Star- PICS!

[wakeany1]

we are comparing wake specific boats not ski boats. Glad you are enjoy the ski wake, I am not going to get into a pissing match but I have been apart of this industry a very long time and seen how all the wake boats have evolved throughout the years. Maybe brainwashing was the wrong statement but as far as I am concerned and proven, the tower shake would really bother me and the flexing of the hull in the MC product. Hopefully that has changed for 18 but I have yet to see any one not do this I have walked up to.

The new star looks sick(im biased though as I just love all boats). Glad they came out with the new star already. Been watching the live videos all today on FB and the wake does look good, but not G level from what I can see on these live vids. Time will tell once we see some good photos or HD closeup vids of the wake. But so far from what ive seen, the G is still the heavyweight champ of the world.

Ok. Seemed like you were bashing MC build quality, and with 10 MC's and 5 Nautiques under my family's belt, my opinion is they're both rock solid. My buddy's Axis flexes as you describe, but I know 3 guys with X/XT models and they don't flex at all. You're right though, I have no dog in this fight.

Lots of pics of the new Star on Teamtalk. It sure has a huge belly...like a boat mounting a whale as someone stated.

Looks nice on the water. Definitely looks different with the standard wrap around windshield.

The guy who took the pic says that's with a full ballast too, FWIW.

I think the boat looks sick on the water! However, until we test it, the G has the best wake in the world. Bottom like is function. What do the wakes and waves do for us. I hear the supra SL might be as good or better than the G and save 30 to 40 grand. Have to test it as well.

New star looks good to me.
Its kinda like an X23 Plus size,
I like the way MC look, had quite a few.
I did not buy my Current G for its exterior looks though....

I came from supra and loved it but I'm not hearing the same thing. The SA was as close to the G as I've found.

Gotta be full ballast as the platform is even with the water. They wouldn't have it sunk with ballast full. Looks great on the water IMO!

I like the new Star a lot, not more than my G though.

This new XSTAR really has my attention.

Man, I have spoken to multiple dealers saying with the 7.4 motor and decently options out, MSRP is 205-215k.
