Ya- that's kinda what I was thinking???
Just went through the inboard ski boat vs outboard ski boat conundrum last fall. The outboard won. Again.
But I'm stuck on them for barefooting, and I like the speed factor.
Obviously - it's totally up to you.
There are some nice rigs out there for inboards. I'm kinda into the the Supra and Mastercraft dedicated Slalom boats. Gotta have big enough power to hit 44 or 46 for footin' though. A lot of them will only do tournament speeds of 36 or 38. Make sure you get one that will do what you need
I'd still take a Barefoot 200 or Flightcraft over an inboard anyday.
That's just me
Good luck - I'm sure however it works out - it will be very cool!
I guess there is a difference then by putting on the big block power because the wake out the back was wakeboard crest-like and much too big for slaloming. Thanks for the tips though Tom about the speed, I'll be sure to keep that in mind when looking around. I don't barefoot right now but its something that I'd be getting into if not this summer definitely soon.
Too much wake..aahhhh, I used to have a nice heavy wooden slamon ski that would carve thru 2 foot waves like a hot knife thru butter
