Anyone have a ri257 and had havasu experience with it? Looking to see how it rides in the havasu chop. this wouldn’t replace the Dcb but compliment it for the family. Hopefully the wife would drive this so I can kick my feet up and enjoy a cold one!

Having smaller kids I really want them to enjoy water Sports like I did growing up. These wake boats size and comfort seem hard to beat. s

Do you need that big? I have the 237 and it handles big water very well. No as good as the 29 Lavey but it does great. You can sit 12 people very comfortabl.

That’s good to hear you like the 237. Rumor is they are making a even bigger boat for 2021.

We turned to the “dark side.” Great compliment boat for the DCB...it does okay in the chop as long as you keep your ballast full all day long.



joking 🙃

Just cruise around 27-28 mph and you’ll be fine. The kids will love it! We sold our DCB for a Mastercraft and don’t have an regrets. I’m happy we made the move and so are the kids

27mph seems so slow and boring. But i grew up doing water sport and I think these boats just provide so much room it’s hard to beat.

Yeah it’s definitely a lot slower, but wife can drive and you can relax...let the kids drive. Heck you can even talk with everyone in the boat while you’re cruising.

good change of pace...
