Want to Buy X-25 or X-35

[Nick911]

How much more does a 35 cost over a 25?

My wife does not like sitting backwards either - she gets motion sickness. But necessary as spotter for water sports. I learned to just feed her lots of dramamine. I keep a supply of it on the boat.

Honestly, that flip seat isn't all it's cut out to be. Lose seting and storage. We originally looked at a 35, but the interior layout of it sucks compared to the 25 and the 45.

How do the wakes compare?

25 and 35...wakeboard and surf. You don't hear a lot about the 35's.

The 25 has better surf and wakeboard wake IMO.

Is the 25 as good in the chop as the 35? Sometimes on Lake Powell we'll get into 3-4 foot whitecaps... I want to be sure our next boat can handle that. I've heard the 35 is great in the rough stuff and I understand that the 25's hull is based on the CSX 220, but I haven't seen anyone compare the 25 and 35 when it comes to rough water.

So did you end up with a 25 or 45?
