Absolutely beautiful wave. Makes me want 1100's over my 900's. My wave is more like your 2nd picture. How many folks(weight) did you have during that run on pic 1?

@boostedsled: Those pics are from the same set, I just move a heavy guy over to the starboard side to clean it up and lengthen it out a bit (We were trying to get good pics because I had a few people ask me about my wave). I think there are 8 people behind the windshield and a bag in the bow with no people. So we were pretty heavy.

@ Idahosurf: I have the 450 motor with 2279 Acme Prop (I think it's the 15" 14.25 Pitch). My boat is always the really loud one with a ton of people on it and looks like this:

@ Idahosurf: This is usually how you will see my boat on the water. This is also a good photo if you're curious how big a T23 is behind the windshield.

Good lookin' wave/boat/crew. Wish I had that many regulars that wanted to join. All my damn friends are too 'busy' with who knows what. I miss ~5 years ago when nobody was married/had kids/etc, lol. We probably put 3x as many hours on the boats than we do now.

@toner Thank you for the additional info. I'm envious of your 450hp setup.

I need more friends and I'm going to start putting my 750 sac up in the bow and partially fill to see if I can get a similar wave to yours. That is an awesome pic and belongs in the Axis brochure!

We have had 17 adults on mine and while its cool it also sucks if everyone wants to surf or wakeboard.. takes like 6 hours between sessions.

That many people and only two boards? That must mean y'all were heading to party cove. Let me guess, the coolers full of beer are either in the lockers or in the bow.

Hell no Dezul, compared to a 2014 A22 or older you can fit FOUR 36qt coolers under the seats. Not my style to ever have that many people on my boat because you get very little ride time IF everyone rides and even worse if you are teaching...but hey, it's not our boat it's his and he's having fun. I have a good friend that consistently has 10-13 in his 2011 A22 and the interior is thrashed. That's why I'll take two 800lb sacks to make up for 10+ friends. As Toner has mentioned, the T23 has a huge cabin and his pic shows how roomy it is with adults. As I've mentioned before its the same dimensions as the A24 cabin but the T23 has sacrificed only a few inches in the bow and sunpad to not be a true 24ft boat while keeping a "23ft" name. Great looking boat Toner.

The other boards are in the bimini! One of my favorite parts about the new boat. And I usually keep a soft cooler in the walkthrough with backups in the drop in under the seat.
