I have been looking for a new boat to replace the 94 ski I have had since she was new. Need some more room for the family. Can anyone tell me how the wake characteristics are on the 216 direct drive? I know this hull configuration was not offered very long and would like to have some more info. We are primarily skiers and like flat wakes. Did this boat share the same hull design with the 206? any info on this year and design would be greatly appreciated.

Hopefully someone will. It seems like the best option as a crossover for those that aren't ready to step up to a V drive. It could still have a skiable slalom wake. I too was looking at that model for my next move up.

Im not sure what you mean- the 216 DD was offered 2003-2010, which seems like a pretty decent run to me.

I dont have any direct experience with the boat, but from what Ive read, its not a bad crossover boat, especially considering its size (21.5'). Its a DD, so it will slalom better than a v-drive. I dont think it will quite rival your '94 though. I think the best advice youre going to get is to test drive/ski one and see for yourself how well it would fit your needs.
