Certainly hear you. Can’t cut it with my current boating / storage situation.For what it is worth, I love my 2020 AR210. BUT, if I could do it over again I would of gotten the AR250, especially if the dealer has one ready to go or in route..... Also the prices are going up every year. I don't know your situation or the water you boat on, Its only a couple feet longer. Just my two cents....
I do understand that. Hopefully your boat will show up soon
Same situation here in ND - I was just talking to my rep again but he says our 212xd is still supposed to come. Even though we only have 3 weeks until they stop building 2022’s
They have already stopped building new 2022 Yamaha's as of Last Week. They are finishing what they have started and switching over the lines for the 2023's. I can confirm this from a vendor we use whom does work for Yamaha as well. What I was told was that they have a lot of boats that are being finished. What that means I am unsure. Could be anyone's guess. They will start with the 2023's later this week or next week in order to have them start shipping in mid August.
I was wondering if you received your boat yet. I am in the same boat as you, pun intended . i am still waiting since august of 21 when new colors come out for a 190 sx. I'm still waiting but i am confirmed it is coming. when who knows.
I called Yamaha directly yesterday, they said that they are waiting on electronics for what is already built. like LCD screens switches and all that good stuff. iv been waiting since august of 21 and still waiting. she said they have till mid august to get the rest of what's built out before calling them 23 models'.
Ours was canceled 2 weeks ago and given the option to get an AR195 that was declined by someone. I said yes and was told it was in the warehouse and ready to ship and would be here in a week. That delivery date came and went last week. I don’t believe anyone at this point.
Take the info you get from Yamaha's CSR's with a grain of salt. It usually is incorrect and has been proven time and time again. What is happening now has been happening for two years, it is just a repeat.
Did you get your boat yet or did they cancel yours.
Totally know where you are coming from. Have you thought about a used one if any are in your area? Maybe another dealer somewhere had one show up, even for a good road trip.
I am not waiting on a boat, I got mine in 2020. Although we have been toying with going to a 25'. It will most likely be a used one when the time comes.
I got desperate and did look at used, but everyone wants way too much for what they have. I called a dealer 2000 miles away and same thing. He said I can put you on the list for 23. At this point I’ll have to ride it out since I invested soo much on add ons and got the family on board with it .
That’s cool that you at least have something to use. This is my first and the whole experience has been not enjoyable. But I hope if I do get it it will make everything worth the wait
I would hedge the bet and put a refundable deposit down at another dealer for a 2023 if you they would indicate that you would be first or so. See what comes in first. And Yeah some of the prices are a bit ridiculous used, but alot I see coming down. What area are you in?
What kind and size boat do you have .
It is in my profile and a pic is there as well. 2020 AR210 modded pretty heavy
