All black Ve ... anyone got pics?

[G-MONEY]

There is no way I would put more than 13 in my boat. Just too many people and I don't want to smell other people's BO.... I need my space.

I hear you da I don't think I couldn't find 11 other people that I would want to be that close to with out throwing someone on the tube for an attitude adjustment... unless its Beam Bam and 10 of her hooters friends then I wish I could put 16 in our boat

Is it really in the bow that all the space goes? I figured it was in the main seating area.

Sometimes the 24 seating area just seem sooooo big. Especially if you only have 2 or 3 people in there. Yeah that's usually nice, but all the empty space just seems weird sometimes.

The difference in cost is only $4K.

Interestingly enough, the sticker on my 24V 2005 says 12 people limit. I think the Ve somehow got upped to 16 people nowadays.

I have the same sticker.

I'm glad I can only put 12 in my boat...16 means 4 more life-jackets I need to carry around, plus 12 is already to many people in a boat IMO....

I have the sticker for a 24Ve and it does say 16.

I agree with Tall, stick to the 24. I went out on a 22 and the cockpit is where all the space goes and it seemed cramped to me after being in my 24. I also think it is interesting, Tall has a sticker on his boat and mine has no such sticker. HUM? Why a sticker on one 05 and not another? I ordered mine in Sept of 04 so I don't think it would be a later or earlier production thing. Oh well I say it's good to 16 peeps if that's what the ve has. There is no sticker to prove me wrong. Good luck on the decision.

If I were to do it again, I would have gotten the 22Ve. The only real difference between the two is that one holds 14 people and the other holds 24. There is a lot more room on the 24 but now, it looks like the 22 would have been sufficient for my family of 7. IMO...

I would stick with 24, unless the extra coin is an issue. It would be interesting to take my current ballast and put it in a 22v and see if I think it makes that much difference.

Thanks Dogbert.

All black Ve it is!!! I only wish, the Ve's had the rear vents... that little bling is always nice

Now the question is.... do I go 24 or 22. My 24V sure is nice... but man, it sure is HUGE!

If you're already used to the 24, I'd stick with that.

[wakeboarder247]

and the 24 is harder to weight on one side for surfing b/c of the extra surface area.. i.e. you need to get more ballast. I love my 22ve and it is PLENTY big enough! 14 person capacity is enough for us..

Just found it here. It's an RZ2, tho.

Somebody posted pics of an all-black boat a while back. It was some place up north...maybe Montana or in that area.

Anybody got pics of an all black Ve? Since I picked up an all Black truck, I'm thinking about going w/ an all black Ve. Was gonna yank the graphics off, and keep the slate clean. Other than the word Tige on the side and back as well as the model designator on the side.

I've seen an all black V but never a Ve. Thanks guys!
