    I was wrong. That was with freight and prep. My bad.

    2019 Release coming soon!

    I’m confused. The dealer told me to expect it 2 weeks after the dealer meeting. Is that accurate?

    2019 Release coming soon!

    Again this is all according to the sales person but apparently when they go to the dealer meeting they are already there and ready to go.

    They didn’t qualify that statement by any means. It could be in just Dallas/Fort Worth, lol

    I will not confirm nor deny wether it was Phil Dill or not, haha. At this point I don’t know what would kill the deal but again the numbers speak for themselves.

    2019 Release coming soon!

    The dealer is placing their order that day. They told me it’ll be 2 weeks for delivery. Not sure if that is because they are the “largest dealer” of Yamahas or not but she sounded very sure and was very well versed. I found one 2018 left in Texas but it sold Saturday and between my trade and...

    Verified it with the dealer yesterday. The dealer meeting is on the 14th. I’ll post some pictures up when she sends them to me. Hope to have possession of the 2019 242x by late August.

    Awesome. I guess I’ll check their website on the 14th then. Maybe the dealer mis-spoke. Thanks!

    2019 Release coming soon!

    I was told today by a dealer at the Dallas Boat Expo that it will be the 18th. I plan on putting a deposit down that day. Have you heard something different?

    Ballast on Glaston GTS-207 for surfing

    No room. It’s all gas tank. I just loaded it all on the seats and ski locker yesterday. I still need a wedge to be able to drop the rope but it was definitely better. I am going for the Inland Curl Version 2 which is supposed to be designed specifically for jet boats.

    What are these?

    I’m not near the boat and have been meaning to look at it closer once I got a chance. Just figured I would throw the question out there while I’m thinking about it. I know it’s not the bilge, that’s on the side. I don’t have any wet storage that high. I was thinking it may be some sort of...

    What are these?

    What are these ports and are they okay to be underwater once I add ballast?

    What do y'all think abut this for the jet wash?

    I have a Glastron GTS-207. I tried the wake wedge without ballast and it was a fail. I have 2250# of ballast on the way but need to eliminate the jet wash. I have read through the "mud flap" idea thread and then stumbled onto this. Can't remember what boat it is on. Anyway here is my idea...

    Ballast on Glaston GTS-207 for surfing

    Well my 2250lbs of bags are on the way. I'll be testing next week. I'll try to take some video to see how well it works. Probably won't be able to surf for another week or two.....fingers crossed. BTW I ordered the bags off of "The House"...

    Ballast on Glaston GTS-207 for surfing

    I ordered six 350lb bags. They were really cheap and allow me to play around with the weight distribution. We’re you able to go ropeless with just 750lbs?

    Ballast on Glaston GTS-207 for surfing

    I am bound and determined to surf with my Glaston GTS-207. I've researched all over the forum and am ready to buy some bags. My questions is this? How much weight do I need and where? I am thinking 2500-3000lbs. I would like to buy bags that fit in the compartments but if thats not feasible than...

    Love my Wake Wedge!

    Which do you recommend?

    Love my Wake Wedge!

    So am I out of luck with that particular wedge with no ballast? I have a tone of wash and that’s the problem. The is no adjustment on mine. Just two suction cups and due to the angle of the hull it causes the wedge to sit at approx. 30 degrees down in the back thus pushing the water downward.
