Nice boat! We used to have a bayliner until we got so busy that we couldn't take it out and it sat for months. Btw, thanks for the wing. I shaved the embossed Boss off and they had to repair the mounting with some epoxy and fiberglass but all is well.

Damn John....congrats on the boat purchase
Be safe out there.
I hope to get a boat in a year or two especially with the temps getting higher and higher and coupled with the fact that if i buy a home it will probably be in a much hotter area

07' sky supreme V208. Dual ballast in back, mercruiser 330hp motor, proflight tower, dual batteries, 4 speakers set up with kenwood cd headunit, seats 10,52 gal gas tank, 20'8" lenght an 95" beam.. to me overall a good boat for me a beginner. we like alot. Its a whole different style of driving in a boat than on the street. feels like a stang with full griggs suspension I would imagine

the sky is a great beg boat, the biggest pain in the ass is with the impeller change on them. ALso the wake can be very sensitive to weights id suggest getting some pop bags for weight distribution.

You will want the wake about thy high. You will also want it to have as steep a ramp as possible. Of course you can't change the shape of the wake, but it sounds like you can add much more weight to the boat.
I recently blew my knee out wakeboarding. Other wise I might be asking for a ride

Launch it. Basically back the trailer into the lauching area which is a decline into a shallow area of the water. You literally back most of the trailer underwater, release the boat from the trailer, and gas it some and pull the trailer out under the boat once its clear.
