It looks great. They look so much better in real life compared to the mock ups. I have already put 25hrs on our 23LSV.

Gibbs... what motor did you get in your 23lsv? I think the standard 410 is a little under powered with 825lbs in the rear and then an additional 750 in the walkway.

Have you tweaked the surf setup yet? I feel I might need more in the nose but just have not really started tweaking yet.

I did the 410. No power issues so far with the torque prop I’m running the Wakemakers 580’s in the rear and 200lbs lead in the walkway. I haven’t got to dial it in yet but will play more this weekend with my extra bags. My buddy wakeboarded behind it full with no issues.

What prop did you try. I hear the 2773 might be the one to use for the 23. I do have a torque prop but I think that the newer 2773 or 2774 might be a little better from what I am hearing. Im going to run a bag in the walkway next time out and see if that will be the perfect setup.

It has the factory 2249 now I also have an OJ 945 that I planned to try but the 2249 is doing great. Run again this weekend loaded down 3000lbs or so lead and water. Wakeboarding in lift mode it jumps out the water no issues and definitely no problems surfing. I will be staying with the 2249 for now.

I am running the stock 2249 on my 2018 T22, I only wakeboard and I agree with u, lift mode and 3k ballast and the boat has zero struggle getting up to speed. 3 or 4 peeps in the boat. I LOVE LIFT MODE [emoji16]
