Overview
One look at Calabria's Pro V and it's pretty clear what makes this V-drive tick. But this boat has more to offer than just superficial wakeboarding attitude. It doesn't just feature a standard tower, ballast system and main lounge, but a true stainless-steel tower (not aluminum made to look like stainless steel), the PureVert ballast system (which Calabria touts as the fastest filling/draining ballast tanks in the industry) and a full wraparound lounge (providing roomy comfort for 15 passengers). So for wakeboarders or families looking to indulge their needs and passions, the Cal Air Pro V has it all--and more.
Performance Analysis
Calabria's PureVert Wake System has always been one of our favorite wakeboard toys. Built into the liner, the tanks are designed not only for safety, balancing the weight for even distribution across the hull, but also for convenience. Because they work without pumps, Calabria says, they fill in less than a minute and empty in 15 seconds. And considering that once full they churn up rampy wakes with excellent transitions and landing zones, you'll appreciate the quick fill time. Out of the box, the ballast will satisfy families with beginners or intermediate riders, but advanced wakeboarders will want additional weight.
Another benefit of the PureVert Wake System is that it keeps the boat running level. With the ballast weight spread evenly and the 55-gallon gas tank positioned forward, the Pro V experiences minimal bow rise for a safer ride and more controllable handling.

Huge, professionally chiseled wakes that don't disintegrate when you charge at them, a boat that "turns on a dime" and plenty space for the whole crew (and their gear); not in any boat you've ever heard of, right? Wrong!
The Pro-V™ represents the epitome of engineering excellence, forethought and design. This is the world's most technologically advanced wakeboarding machine.
The standard integrated Wake System fills in under a minute and empties in 15 seconds adding 700 lbs. of water weight, NO PUMPS! The standard quick release tower collapses in 30 seconds and sits below the windshield for simple, easy storage. Absolutely no bow-rise and effortless planing, no high-chairs needed.
To top it all off, the numerous highly-custom graphics options are all sprayed in mold to a minimum tolerance of 25 mils; simple gelcoat work covered by undemanding stickers is clearly unacceptable.
If true beauty, performance and functionality are what you've been dreaming of, then the serious riders need look no further!
We are frequently asked why our vehicles are so reasonably priced. We are asked if they are salvaged or flood damaged. The answer is simple, ABSOLUTELY NOT!--Life is too short to try to downplay THAT kind of history, and convince you that a severely compromised car is a wise decision. No, we specialize in quality, clean, high-end cars at incredible prices. We much prefer to sell MANY cars at a remarkable value, than FEWER cars at inflated prices.
Many car dealers have earned their reputation rightfully, and unfortunately, manage to provide the automotive sales industry with an unfavorable public opinion.
