I don't think an MB is worth a 5 hour drive. I only know of one MB dealer in my area and he is 3-4 hours away.

Would also be intrested in what you choose. I've been going back and forth between Axis T23/A24 and MB B52 23'.
We are getting ready to move to the east coast and the nearest MB dealer is 5 hrs vs 20 minutes for Axis....



That should be your determining factor right there. Your boat is only as good as your dealer, cause if your boat breaks and you can't get it to the dealer, you don't have a boat.



This has always been my way of thinking but distance does not make a good dealer. If the dealer 5 minutes away takes 2 weeks to fix your boat but the dealer 5 hours away has it done in a few days it may be well worth the drive.

All valid points. Dont want to hijack the thread or turn this into a MB vs Axis. Just want to keep hearing about A24's vs T23's!
Thanks

I own a a24.. the 2 reasons I bought it vs the t23 was bow size (we can put 8 kids up there) and they had a a24 in stock that we liked the colors of.

I have a 2014 A22 with center and rear tanks plus addtl pnp 900lbs in bow and 1500 addtl in rear lockers, we still don't get the great site wave of a T24 of the same year. Best wave I ever rode was a T24
