Any bowrider will be a compromise, providing space and comfort for the
family, but only a boat made for wakeboarding will make the wake required to
keep boarders happy.
We added a tower to my 19' bowrider and the family has fun, but they really
wish for a bigger wake.

I'm considering getting a bowrider, and the neice and nephew are just
getting interested in Wakeboarding. Is it realistic to expect to get
decent
wakeboarding performance with a 20 or 22 foot bowrider (with a tower)? I
know the people really into watersports get specialized skiboats, but my
old
body won't put up with the pounding.

I'm considering the upper-range to midrange bowriders, i.e .Chapparel,
Cobalt, Four Winns, etc.

Do any of them specifically stand out for sports (actually, for
wakeboarding, as nobody in the family seems interested in skiing).

Thanks,

Matthew.
