The 265 doesn't compare to any other wake boat I've seen. There are NO comps! Not only was it a rare manufacturing run with twins, she's the second to last boat off the discontinued line (never even seen a 2011 for sale, was told only four were made). She's 30ft LOA, 9'6 beam, center console, with a vacuflush head, and hard top with drop down TV - yet still trailer-able.
We've had 15 adults on board with room for more. Guests were able to use the head, grab drinks, move to different zones of the boat, all while cruising at 26mph.
We've been been caught in gnarly seas, crazy PNW down pours, and crossed large commercial traffic in the middle of the night. She handles the elements as good as any offshore 30 footer and stays remarkably dry with zero slapping. The hull shape, size, and weight, handles rough water better than any other wake boat I've been on. We take the bow cushions out and fish up front. Surf and wake board all day off the back. She's a salt water series and goes from the fresh lakes to salty Puget Sound with no concerns. We've gone long distances in poor weather where the X23 would have surely been swamped. Every single person is blown away when they're looking at a center console Master Craft sitting in the Puget Sound. Sticker price was 190k before tax. She'll have just over 400hrs at the end of this season. New interior, new stereo, everything works.
I would not let her go if I could justify two boats. Would love to keep her as a tender for the mother ship... just not there yet
Curious to see what the market dictates on price as well. This is not a distressed situation and I'm not going to give her away. That being said, I will negotiate as I am ready to move up to a bigger boat.
