Check this out.
Maybe Marker One will come back as something like this?

Who’d a thunk it. Surfing behind a Pontoon...without ballast tanks.

Oh i have no doubt. Every model under 30' will have the option in 10 years. Innovation is cool.

I saw one at the Salt Lake boat show last month. It was okay but I’m not ready to trade the R5 Surf for one yet.

It's cool that they are making surfing more accessible but that wave does look really small and I'm guessing has little forward push. Something tells me my kids would not be happy with it after being spoiled by the R5 wave.

That's a nice wave Bum! I wish they would develop a drive that can rotate the lower unit so you could run as a normal IO for cruising and flip it to forward drive for surfing/wakeboarding. There's just too many places on the Chain the forward drive wouldn't work...
