Hi there been lurking around for a while; and just put a deposit on a '17 212x. Should be picking her up in a few weeks time once my galvanized trailer comes in. This site has been an amazing place of information.

@WetWillie , beautiful boat !! Sure looks like the showroom where I purchased mine ? Did you buy from Ralph and Neil in KY. ? GREAT people. Might want to consider replacing that bow roller with a Stoltz or something other than hard plastic real soon if you want to keep it looking like it does now. Mine was scratched after one launch but the Stokley team handled it for me.

I have the same boat and live in College Grove. What lake will you be heading to? Depending on weather, I'll go to either Percy Priest, Old Hickory, Center Hill, or Tims Ford.

Yea Stokley's has been amazing so far working with Jerome/Erin/and the Owner. They have all gone above and beyond so far and even helped me out tremendously on getting a galvanize trailer in. Hope to take delivery in the next few weeks!

Thank you took a bit to find one in the better space blue, but I'm glad I didn't settle on the Black. I found the last Blue in stock in 600 mile radius of TN I think...

Hi there, we live in Mt. Juliet 5 miles from Percy Priest and 12 miles to Old Hickory... Nice to meet someone so close by. We will primarily go to Percy due to proximity; but OH has better lounge/party atmosphere for anchoring up. We will have to get together sometime and go out. I'm new to jet boats, but have been boating since a little kid with my dad. I just have to find storage for the boat until our garage gets built.

Congrats and welcome!
Thanks for that, along with all the information and videos you were able to provide on the '17's when they were revealed.

The wife and I started at an A.R. 195 then moved to the 21ft line (2nd boat first thoughts) AR 210 liked the limited S engines and finally landed on the 212 X as our boat that would last us for many years; and double for water sports fun as our 2 kids grow older.

Just got her home safe and sound 7 hr round trip drive and some hairy back roads later...
Wow the people at Stokley's Marine are just amazingly awesome people. They even stayed late and hooked us up with a bunch of goodies!
Sorry but it's super dark/raining it's butt off in pics...
