           One
test ride in the MariStar 230 VRS will guarantee your appreciation
of the finer things in life. When you combine features like the
plush 34-ounce vinyl wraparound seating with the gentle riding
capabilities of the 25-degree deadrise variable V-hull,
you’ll be styling in first class while your friends ride in
their coach class I/Os.

           The
captain of the 230 VRS can indulge in a top-flight helm with a
beautiful wood-grain dash, leather-wrapped steering wheel,
chrome-bezel gauges and a form-fitting driver’s seat
that’s fully adjustable.

           Although
the 230 VRS caters to its passengers in the luxury-laden interior,
it more than satisfies its riders in any water-sports discipline.
With the boat fully weighted, the wakes are as big as any advanced
rider would want. And compared with I/Os in this size, the slalom
performance is well above the norm.

           If
you’re looking for the perfect blend of luxury comfort and
performance, look no further than the MariStar 230 VRS. Do yourself
a favor — don’t settle for
coach.    

 The Lowdown:

•This is an X-30 in disguise that offers top-level
wakeboard potential when fully weighted.
           

•Equipment housing is never a concern with plenty of
available storage options.
           

•The chrome and stainless-steel additions for 2003 give
this luxury cruiser a sporty look.

• An enlarged swim platform allows plenty of room for
Mom and Dad to help the kids with equipment.
