I am a first time Malibu buyer that is in the market for a used LSV. I have spent some time on my friend’s 2015 23 LSV which really bit me with the surf bug. They said they have surfed all different brands and like the Malibu best so I am trusting in their experience. I would love it if someone could point me at resources that lay out the important differences between the years 2015+ and the important options that I should make sure I find in the boat I buy. I will be running only in fresh water at near 0 elevation. I want to spend as little as possible (of course), but I am willing to pay for important features. I like the idea of a boat I can keep for 10 years if well maintained and stored. Also, any advice/resources on how to buy a used boat from a process point of view or gotchas that will help me weed out a mistake would be awesome Excited to be a more active member of this community Nate

Looking at an 08 vride with 350 hours. Owner is asking 30k. Exterior and trailer in great shape. Interior is in great shape just sunburned seats. Is this a good deal? Also during test ride, boat ran extremely well until one of engine intake hoses came off. Boat took on water and engine was going into low power mode I think. It wouldn’t go over 20 mph. Owner is going to have boat inspected To ensure everything is ok. Should I still consider or walk? Thanks!
