getting a new enzo 244sv
I flip boats almost every year. A quality old boat sells better for me.. But 20 will get you a dime of a boat. You'll just loose on the big end.
I'm no guru but I'd stay away from direct drive/v drive boats unless all you plan to do is ski/wakeboard. We have an old supra and it really sucks not being able to beach the boat because the prop is fixed under the boat, also shallow water sucks too. My next boat will be something I can raise the prop out of the water, or a jet boat but we don't do a lot of tubing or skiing
I like the surround seating dom. You could put an extra ballast bag or a picnic table in the middle of that bad boy, or a blow up matress

X2... if you are going to keep it in just a few lakes that you are familiar with, that have docks and great ramps, sure. If you like having the flexibility of going in the bay, sound, ocean, or explore unfamiliar water, look elsewhere.
Unless you have been wakeboarding for years, or have an uncanny natural skill and need to pop 12 feet in the air, a purpose build ski/wakeboard boat is not necessary and is a huge limiting factor. Id get a comfortable pleasureboat that isnt so nice or pristine that you would flip if fish blood or spilled beer got in it.
