Bookmark or Share- A question for skiers - JetBoaters.NetI slalom behind our 242 Ltd s - generally around 32 mph - we use ride steady for speed control as we don’t have the xe features. The pull is good with a fairly flat wake at that speed- I like it compared to I/O’s but not as much as an inboard ski nautique- better than the wake versions though as I find those wakes too high for skiing even ...
- Is a Yamaha 195 good for experienced Slalom skier?I slalom behind our AR195 in Utah between 5,000-7,000 elevation.

If the 19' boat fits your size needs, you can find gently used 195's for under $40k. @haknslash has one for sale right now I think.

As others have said, right behind the boat is a bit more choppy just because of the jet wash. Hole shots are awesome and take some driver skill not to overpower the skier.
- Slalom Skiing behind 187? - JetBoaters.NetWelcome Bizz, i was gonna get the 187 also but went for the 207 instead, tiny bit more seating all around, 2 more speakers, and a bigger fuel tank. definitely will keep these threads updated on how slalom skiing is on it, also the whole boat in general and keep an eye on the other post about how the fins (thrust vectors) handle and work out, next time i get the boat out will be the first time ...
