btw.... what about that 268MCC thats for sale on our site? It should fit your needs nicely, appears to be very well maintained and is a great price.
Lol! Aawww, just hose the whole thing down and throw some Febreeze in there and it is as good as new.

    Thanks everyone for your input. I think a BR is the way to go.

    I have been looking a lot and am having trouble finding a late 90s 210.

    I found one that is super nice shape with the 5.7, Alpha 1, wakeboard tower, perfect trailer, but they want $12,000 for it (it's a 96 210BR)

    I am sure I would love it, but I'd much rather pay 10k to 10.5

    I have seen a few listed on the boards here, but they don't appear to still be for sale since the posters don't reply. Is there some secret place to go to find a sweet 96 to 99 210 for around $10k?

    Thanks to all!!!

    Boats.com
    Boattrader.com
    Iboats.com

    These are the "big 3" most dealers advertise on. If you're going to look for a larger one, you can check
    yachtworld.com

    One other option is to check Craigslist. Check the local listing to you, and then once you've done that, head over to

    SearchTempest.com, it's a national craigslist search site. Enter in what you're looking for, and your zip code, and it'll give you the results based upon the distance to you.

    The Z210 is a fairly common model, so you should be able to find quite a few. You might just have to drive a ways to find the perfect one though.

    just want to throw this into the pot, but as you will be boating as a family of 8 have you considered a deck boat?

    From a practical standpoint a deck boat would make sense. Just like our mini-van makes complete sense.

    Boats aren't supposed to make sense are they?

    This boat is mainly to satisfy my wife and she hates our mini-van. She's kind of a speed demon. Grew up with a race car dad. So I think the deck boat style is out...

    Good suggestion though

    I think there are quite a few jubilee owners on here would say it fits your needs perfectly, but hey each to there own.
    And i'm not the one who would need to convince Mrs CroMagnum
    hope you find the right boat, happy hunting



    and with six kids the toilet will be a god send

    If you can find me one that looks like that picture I might be able to sell it... Most deck boats I have seen don't have the double windshields so they look too much like a barge.

    If I start searching for a 214 or 204 Jubilee will I be searching for a needle in a haystack? I already kind of feel that way after 3 weeks of searching for a 210. Isn't it even harder to find a Jubilee?

    I am a fan of the pottie idea... Although in Colorado we all just pee in the lake since we know the only folks who drink it are you "down-streamers".

    take a look through the gallery i'm sure you'll find plenty of jubilee pictures in there to win the good lady over
