Placed an order in March 2022 for two FX Cruiser HO's. The dealership said there was nothing available for 2022 (sold out), so we will put you in the queue for the 2023's coming out next year. I thought I would have to wait until a whole year and take delivery sometime in April-June 2023 timeframe of the two skis; well guess what; I got a call from the dealer yesterday saying their first 2023 FX Cruiser HO's are in and they will have the two I ordered ready for delivery in 2 weeks! Super excited!

Will post pictures once I have them.

Thanks
Nick

Before we bought the boat, we were only going to replace our recently sold Waverunners with current models. Interestingly enough, the ones that we had decided on were what you ordered. The price was high enough that we decided to look at boat options and ended up with a new jet boat! I still miss the Waverunners at times and know that you're going to enjoy the new toys!

I have 2 of the fx ho cruisers 2021 models had a couple of the 2014 models prior to that I liked the ride of the 2014 a lot more than the 2021 I also had to deal with serious chine walk and big water spray off the hulls along with a very wet ride , It took a lot of modifying to make them even close to the other hulls but that water wing off each side is annoying. On the bright side they use a lot less fuel and the hull seems to be a lot stronger. https://jetboaters.net/threads/stability-issues-with-2021-ex-limited.39336/#post-623111

I wonder how much the 2022 enhancements addressed the issues you experienced on your 2021…

from the 2022 press release…
The FX Series is designed for versatility and adventure due to its superior ultra-lightweight, performance hulls. You can fish, tow watersport tubes and wakeboarders, and venture out into open waters on extended cruises. To make the ride even more responsive and comfortable, the hull sponsons for 2022 are moved forward 50mm to reduce hull packing, and a new modified ride plate reduces unwanted bow spray in all water conditions.

Sounds about right for CA. Glad it’s not just CA pricing. Way off the MsRp right? My invoices includes single line items for market adjustment or set up fees of almost $2,500 each. My gp1800 came with speakers and a blue tooth module installed for another $900. If I could have had them removed to reduce the cost I would have.

My decals keep peeling off also And do not try to do the things I do because you don't have steering on it and the first time you try to spray the mangroves doing a 180 at 60 m p h you will be deep in the trees and do not stand on the seat no hands , well you can't do that anyway because you don't have my throttle stop and also do not try to tow 5 people in 2 tubes tied together standing on the seat NO HANDS for the same reasons.
or this

@Cobra Jet Steering LLC haha I have never been on a Jetski in my life and I would be happy going in a straight line getting out on the water at a modest 30mph speed. That's good enough for me. I am sure I cant do advanced moves like you describe but I honestly have no need for all that. Nice video thou.
