    It’s a totally different boat. Definitely takes the chop better, but it’s a foot and a half longer and over 1,000lbs. heavier. Plus my Tige was the year before they went to tabs so it was a listed boat. The Tige was a good boat, but this is a different beast.

    So, I personally blame this on @buckbuck. If he hadn’t introduced me to wake surfing many years ago behind his 212, none of this would have happened....

    I have spent a fair amount of time on a Supra SL and 2 Supra SE's. Supra is a pretty consistent and reliable brand. May not be as amazing as a Nautique, or have the color palate/claimed rough water ride of a Centurion, but also priced below both of those brands. If I were going to buy a new boat...

    Nautique is sweet, but I am not in that price point for this purchase. A friend bought one and they are gorgeous. Honestly, there are attributes of almost every wake boat manufacturer that I truly admire. I was lucky to be able to ink my deal when you could still negotiate a little last fall. As...

    The thrusters do limit the field and drive the price up. And depending on your audio system, the wetsounds systems may be louder, but a little more “tin-y” depending on your musical taste. The walkthrough bow and transom seating is nice, but don’t discount the “playpen”. Many wake boats evolved...

    These boats are more complicated for sure, but you learn what they can do just like any other boat, by using them. There is a lot that can be found for way less than $200 in my area, but you have to move fast in this market. And if you wake surf, it’s just apples to oranges for what you can do...

    What???? 🤣 Don’t those bolt on? Do you just leave holes in your transom if you unbolt it? What if they water test it??? Inquiring minds want to know!

    PS- impeller - minimally every other season, depending on the number of hours you rack up. Many do it every season for piece of mind. I would not go past 100. Oil change, close to 50. If you go over a bit on a long weekend nobody is gonna ding you for it. Breakin - I’ve heard the theory of...

    Even with Yamaha I had an issue that if the dealer had not stepped up I would have been frustrated. I wouldn’t be afraid of the 2 hour drive myself, but I think dealer support is a huge component of an enjoyable ownership experience with a semi custom wake boat (any brand). I was interested in 2...

    There is a lot to unpack there, and I’ll admit I skimmed your post. Tige is a good boat when you have a great dealer. Some of the stuff you described should have been found going through the boat by the dealer’s service team when they took delivery. There are always things to sort on a semi...
