Ok I get that wakeboarding is the latest craze, but at the last boat show I hardly saw any competition ski boats, just extremely expensive wakeboard boats. I mean these boats were priced upwards of $80k I understand a dealership would be happy to profit 35 to 40 thousand dollars on a wakeboard boat, but is there not even people out there who also have a passion for skiing anymore? I would think that people would simply stick to the old school slalom because its so much cheaper. Besides when you get good enough skiing the sport is adictive as anything.
