    Default Any ideas of a bigger boat from Supra?

    I wanted to throw out a question out there to see if anyone knows whether supra will be bringing a bigger boat liket the Mastercraft x80? I currently have a 2008 24v and seems that its getting cramped when you take another family out with your own.
    Thanks

    That is a interesting question. What size would you want?

    I dont think the x80 can seat any more comfortably than the 24v, in fact the x80 interior seems smaller. I think the x55 seats more than the x80 and its only 25'.

    I cant imagine SC looking to invest in building a $100K+ boat right now. Hopefully I'm wrong and the boating industry is doing great.

    For me personally my next boat will be 22', the 24v is a beast.

    I agree. My saltare was difficult to dock load and trailer at times. This 22v that I now have seems so nimble.

    No kidding, you'd need a blower in the front with a closed bow...wouldn't want all that methane to get trapped!

    After driving an X-45 and X-80 I don't want a boat bigger than my 24V, It's the perfect size, I don't want a size smaller.

    MasterCraft has chosen to enter the super-luxury market and I personally dont think they will have any competition from an inboard company any time soon. Check out the new X-50 but I also heard they were coming out with a yacht-class boat. I thought I had pics, but no luck right now...

    How about a re-design of the 24? A little smaller ski lockers? this would open up some significant more sitting room for people. I almost bought a 24, but there was not enough space difference from the 22 to justify the size hassle/cost difference. A pickle fork front end would also open up the bow area, even though I dont care how they look.

    I was suprised how large of rear ski lockers the 24 has, that most people dont fully use and could be reduced/shortened for more sitting area. Or maybe they do get stuffed with gear and it would affect the storage needed on the 24? With the Z-5 I barely have anything at all in my ski lockers on my 22.
