I would like to say hello, I'm a first time poster but I have been reading this Forum for months while I was try to figure out what my next boat will be. Now to the good stuff this weekend my girlfriend and I drove 6 hours to test drive and buy a 2006 24V. It is fully loaded with every thing but a heater and shower. This winter to make it mine I'm going to powder coat the tower black, tint the windows and of course redo the ballast.

Very nice! Did it come from Knoxville Watersports? I see the logo guide pads.

Boat looks very similar to my set up, let me know if you have any 24V specific questions. Fortunately for you your girl looks much much younger than mine.........I feel old and its getting depressing :(

Welcome, nice looking boat! I am sure you wont be disappointed with that 24... if you need any info regarding redoing the ballast system let me know. Just completely re-plumbed my '08 22V and it is working flawlessly. Also, those swivel board racks can be replaced by Roswell for no charge. The set they will send you are much better and wont wobble and move around.

Congrats on the boat... and welcome to the Supra site.

Yes, it originally came from Knoxville Watersports, but I bought it from a guy in Cleaveland TN.

Not really sure. But my 21V came with a OJ 13.75 x 17.5 1 1/8". I changed mine to a 14.25 x 14.5 ACME.

You should be able to read it from the back of the boat written around the nut that holds it on.

My 2008 22 Launch has the "wakeboard" prop and it's an OJ 14.25x14

Nice boat and rig!

I believe SC used the 13.7" in 06 for the 24's. Knoxville WS did upgrade some boats to the OJ 14.25 along with the larger rudder. Both help a ton, especially with a lot of ballast.

I'll take a look at it today. I want to make sure its the wake prop before I upgrade the sacs. I've seen post with people upgrading to the 750 for surfing but do you wake board with the 750's full and the 1100 in the center or should i just stick with the gravity 565 or what ever the pounds is since I wakeboard more. Right now I thing he has the 400 in the back if not smaller.

I have the 325hp with the 14.25 prop and if both rear 750's are full along with the 1100 center plus a few people in the boat, the P.Pass can not hold the speed constant to wakeboard. Its also a little tricky to maneuver at low speed.

I fill the rear 750's 1/2 to 3/4 with the center 100% full and the wake is awesome to board.

Jon many boats use different props. 14x14.5 is very common for new boats. Call NettleProps.com on the phonem JT will get you the right info.
