    The Malibu Wakesetter is different from the boats you are considering. Towboats for ski and board use usually have a flatter bottom aft, as they are designed to get on plane quickly at lower speeds. The boats you have mentioned have moderate to deep vee shapes carried well aft. Good for fishing, as they will handle choppy seas well, but I don't think they are "ideal" for boarding. They will work, of course, and will be the better choice as an all-round sport boat. Purpose built ski and wakeboard boats are for calm water only, excellent for one purpose, not as good for all others.

    Just some things to consider as you select a design to build. Good luck!
