    2004 MariStar 230 VRS with X Package

    Comment


    • Damn browser kicked me out of the forum after I typed a novel on the first run of my NXT. Went with my buddy Jared who's a certified MC tech. 75 air temp. Water stack of dimes cold. Takeaways (understanding I'm coming from an 02 Maristar 230 VRS and have never set foot on an X-Star): (1) Unbelievable response and torque from the base Ilmor. I could not have imagined the strength of the motor; (2) Surf wave absolutely exceeded expectations. Adjustable and clean. My buddy who has a surf only set-up on his Malibu was thrilled with it; (3) Finish on the boat is exceptional. It's solid and a very very big 22 footer. On the water it is nimble even weighted down; (4) I will need to work on the wake for boarding. I didn't have time to tune it much, but it looks good. Definitely not a pro wake but I'm 42 so F-it. Have to say overall, the boat exceeded all expectations. I don't know how productive I'm going to be at work this Summer. Hope you all have a great season. I will. (Also, sorry for lousy pictures. They were not a priority yesterday).

        Great looking boat. I love the white. Very clean.

        • Also, to clarify my post, Jared is not the one with the Malibu. Just to make that clear. He would only own an MC.

            Beautiful looking ride. The all white is smooth and classy as is the interior. Welcome to the NXT family. Love mine, but may have to upgrade seeing all the 2018 towers

              Welcome to the NXT family! I love the color scheme you have, very classy!! We have a new to us 2017 NXT 20 that we love. I was looking to possibly getting a 2018, but we had such an amazing deal on the 2017 we could not pass up. Just waiting for the weather to warm up!

              • John, that all white 22 is clean! Congrats! Nicest 22 I've seen.

                • Correct. I opted out of the trailer and ordered a Boatmate trailer. They have several wheel options. I think the sound is comparable but have not had a chance to really spend time with it.
                  You do have some tuning options like a generic vehicle deck would. No, you cannot control tower volume separate from the cabin. I don't see that being a problem for me but I do see why many people will want a full aftermarket system.
                  Thanks for the kind comments. I can't wait for summer.

                      Thanks! I think it turned out ok too. We went back and forth about dark vs. all white hull and I think we made the right decision.

                        All white all day. So clean and classic, especially the interior too. So good

                        • Hey can anyone do me a huge favor? What is the distance between the two cup holders on the back seat on the NXT22? I don't have mine at the house so I pulled this pic from the internet. I am trying to see if this RTic cooler will fit and the sale ends today.

                            They do free return shipping I am pretty sure so just order and try.

                            • Sold my 2000 Prostar 195 to my neighbor and still get to look at it. Just purchased my new 2018 NXT 20., put it in last week. Thanks Offshore Marine.
