Utah Boat Show Coverage: The MasterCraft CSX 220: Part 1

Thanks to reader and photography phenom E.J. (despite those initials, I am referring to another person, and not referring to myself in the third person), The Wakeboard Report has coverage of the Utah Boat Show. So the photos you'll be seeing in this series of posts from the Utah Boat Show are going to be considerably nicer than anything else I ever post. Ever.

Beginning with one of the boats that provides The Wakeboard Report with so many daydreams and phenomenal Google results, let's take a look at the MasterCraft CSX 220. The one shown at the Utah Boat Show was slightly different than what I have seen before; this one was outfitted with a Zero Flex Flyer, and a few additional electronic components that we didn't see on the prototype. But we are tickled to see that dive tanks are still being shown with this boat. After all, it is the dive/ride potential with this boat that partially drives the cross-purpose functionality home for many, including me.

Regarding that "Boat Show No Haggle Price": The boat can be had for less than what is shown there. The price listed includes a bevy of electronics and components that you may want to install yourself, or not have on the boat at all. Remember, the customization potential is one of the MasterCraft CSX 220's strongest selling points.

Thanks very much E.J.!. And thanks to Greenband Enterprises who were very accommodating regarding our press credentials & entry to this show.
