getting anxious for new boat to arrive. When I order my vehicles you can track progress. Is there a way to track our boat orders?

I'm the guy (from other posts) that ordered a 242 Limited S e-series but is changing the tower to a non e-series tower.

It's been on order since mid-January. My dealer told be it was scheduled to ship 2/29 but they have no info if it shipped. Not sure how long it takes for shipping.

The dealer can log into the shipping system and see a status. However, I do not know if they can track its whereabouts once it leaves the plant and is on its way. I ordered my 2015 in September of 2014 and for some reason had an unusully long wait, which was fine since there was not much boating to be had by that point. My dealer sent me daily snapshots of his screen that showed the status. My boat was in the "Ready to Ship" status for a long time before I finally got a pic that showed shipped. Once it shipped, my dealer basically told me he waits for a call from the driver with an expected arrival to make sure the dealership is open and ready to receive the products. Good luck. I hope it shows up soon. I know how anxious I would be.

Thanks - this is exactly what my dealer is seeing. How long was your wait time? It will probably help me with expectations.

Thanks - that sets expectations for me. With the ready to ship date of 2/29, I should look at the end of this month for it to arrive. I will now stop pestering my dealer for a couple weeks.

Received a note today from my dealer. The boat will be here next Wednesday. They will then swap the tower and right now we are scheduled to pick it up next Saturday. Happy days ahead!

Then a pic of the smiling crew!
