What i personally am looking for is a v-drive that has plenty of room on the inside and has a good freeeboard. This will allow me to weight it as i feel necessary. The wave i know i can get right with just a little time, if i use a wake shaping surf gate or slamming one side. Although i will probably always use my wake shaper design, it just works to well and is to easy. With all that being said, you have a very large selection of boats in your price range and i would recommend a 07 Mobius xlv with the bags upgraded to 1500#. Very nice boat that puts out a north shore type wave.
