So last night I read the ski advice thread because my skis are in the shop and need to dump a lot of money into them. And though I think they will be good to go when they are done, I was thinking about selling both and buying a newer one. After reading the ski advice and lemonscraft thread I'm convinced I should sell my skis and get a lemonscraft. Can anyone say anything negative about one? I've had a DD inboard, a pontoon boat, a vdrive wakeboard boat, a ski, and just got a winch. Out of all of them, the pontoon boat was my favorite ride for a few different reasons. It seems like the lemonscraft is an even better ride than the tooner. Don't get me wrong, I love the skis, but I'm all about simplifying my life and this seems like this is a great way. Does anyone thing I'm crazy?

SEAMAN, here is my vessel. its a little bigger than the standard "lemonscraft," but IMO, the extra room and power is worth every penny...

SEAMAN, so far one of the best rides was on fastgreens dirty fat sacks
Haven't got to ride behind the lemonscraft yet. It looks sick.
I have a 14' 25hp. no tower. I have a blast every time out. Tillin & Chillin.

My favorite rig to ride behind is my 1986 Glastron Carlson CVX 16. The one pictured is not mine, but looks like this one:
When I become a baller, I'm getting it's older and bigger cousin, the Glastron Scimitar - complete with T-tops:

i have a single drive jet boat and it is wakeskate sexpot. the older models are single jet and the smaller models. u only need 6" of water, a tower makes things even better, and they are so comfortable and fun to drive and the inside out is
i like not having to worry about a propeller.......

I've got a 16ft flattie with a 2 stroke 40 and it's the business It has a tower which I think is key but a pylon or anything to elavate the rope works way better then a ski 5 or 6 people cooler tunes n good vibes
