Well the Tige world lost a dealer for the 2010 season in southern Wisconsin.:eek:
Reeds Marine out of Delavan, WI is no longer selling the Tige product or any ski/wake board boat. They dropped 2 manufacturers in 2010. Tige and Azure. They now Sell Glastron,Chapparel and a couple of pontoon boat lines.:p
Their reason for dropping Tige was that they were not moving enough boats. I know they had a Z1 on the lot for almost 2 seasons. Mine was there from December 06- October 07.:rolleyes:
They will still do service work on Tige's but no sales. Even though that they have a great service department they are pricey and will not have the same leverage with Tige that say Forte or State of Mind has. :(
So I am trying to find options in Central Wisconsin, Southern Michigan, St. Louis or Bell Marine in North Webster,IN. Bell is less than 1/2 hour from my dads home in Syracuse so if I run into something that I don't want to tackle as a DIY I can drop the boat off on Sunday or Monday and pickup next weekend. Bell wins and I will see my dad more than normal :) Downside is a 3 hour tow.
Bigger downside is if I have to sell this year the lack of a Northern,IL or Southern,WI Tige dealer will have an impact. Ouch and darn.
