Hello all! My name is Mike. Glad I found the forum, lots of good conversations and info. here.

Currently own a Yamaha jet boat. With that said it has served its purpose thus far, and despite individual opinions, the boat is rock-solid and maintenance is a breeze. My only complaint is water-sports performance.

Friend of mine has a 2015 S226. Can't help but have boat envy in the surfing/wakeboarding department. This has lead me to a search for a used Supreme. Have mulled over on other brands and keep find myself coming back to the Supreme.

I was surprised at how limited the used market really is relatively speaking in comparison to Malibu, Nautique, Mastercraft, you name it. Are people really that satisfied with these boats that they are rarely hitting the used market? I know I should expect more to come onto the market as the spring approaches but the majority of the "used" I see are the occasional 2016 and some 2017's still on the dealer lots.

Anyway, school me on the models available. S238 being the flagship, I am drawn to it for its size yet seems it is out of my price range. Any compromises on the  S211, S226 other than standard/optional ballast and size I should know of? (Counted out the S21 only because I am at 20FT and definitely would like some more space).

 

I know of the major changes year to year i.e. touch screen vs. rockers. Surf tabs vs. none. But any other major changes I should know? Is 2016 that superior to 2015/2014?

 

Top of the budget would be 60K.

Those and other brands have more dealers and move FAR more new boats, resulting in way more used in the secondary market. Not a dig at supreme or any other brand, but has little to do with how satisfied initial owners are. May very satisfied owners trade up in the 1-3 tear range and stick with the same brand. Partly because of the brand but the quality of the dealer plays a huge part. When shopping new or even relatively new, shopping the dealer as much as the brand, is equally important.

Where are you from? Have you searched for the nearest cent/supreme dealers to you? I'd start there(maybe you have done that already).

I'm on the east coast(Jersey) and surf boats and dealers aren't a big thing. I happened to have a supreme dealer on the lake I am always at but they are the only one near me. I believe the next closest is about 3 hours away.

I have a 2017 s238 and I couldn't be more pleased with it. Also, depending on where you live, the price of the boat could be VASTLY different, even on used models. Since you have time, wait it out and keep looking. If you need to drive 12 hours to pick it up and save 10k, go for it.

@MFasoI’m in Connecticut. Closest too me would be Lakeview Marine in Webster and a little further Southshore. Assume that’s where you purchased yours? And yeah driving isn’t out of the question for me.

Yes! Southshore is mine and that is the lake I am on ALL summer! I will say that place is awesome. Not sure how many hours away that is for you but it's worth the trip. You can call and talk to Matt and ask him what he has. He may have deals on a 17 or a 16 right now that are left over or trade ins from people who bought a bigger model. I know they have boats on their lot. If your range is 60k, you may want to look at the s226 or s224. I'm not 100% sure but a NEW s226 or s224 will probably be in your price range.

Call southshore and ask for Matt. They are passionate about getting you on the water and they aren't looking to rob you at all. He did a lot for me and made it easy. He'll also take you out on the water as many times as it takes for you to learn the boat and to surf. He'll run numbers for you over the phone and get you to your budget. He is on here but not often. @South Shore Marina NJ

Let me know how it goes!

Lots of options up to the 60K range, it's just how far are you willing to travel for a surf boat? Try looking in onlyinbords, boattrader, and my favorite searchtempest. Look for a boat that has a V-hull all the way to the stern and if you are a regular footer make sure She has a lefthand rotational prop. Once you get a boat picked out start posting up with pics and questions.

Thanks for the advice gentlemen. Have seen a few comments in multiple threads on the engine options. No brainier if buying new to elect the 6.0L. Hypothetically if "perfect" boat was to cross your path, every option but the larger engine  would you pass? Continue searching? Is the standard 5.7L just as capable? Should the 6.0L option be the only place to not compromise?

A lot of changes can be made by changing the pitch of a prop. If I were you I would start asking on a local level and find out what locals are running in your area. Never pass on the perfect boat.

Unless you are running at lake elevations 3500' or higher, a 5.7L with the right prop will be fine. Just as long as its not like one of the older merc 315HP. Heck, even with a larger and higher HP and torque engine, you would still likely need to re-prop once you get the boat dialed in for surfing. Engine power only goes so far, we still have to get the boat to "hook up".

      I see Lamb80782 had the same remove the driver seat as I am having.
      I didn't see the ulitmate solution.  I think removing "stop" would be the solution but am unable to see very well under the seat.  Has anyone come up with the solution?
      I also am reoving to have re-uphostered.  Itried removing the black access cover but it is very tight under there and not enough room for a regular wrench.  May try a 1/4 rachet drive.
