Perfect pass will not be offered to any boat manufactuer in 09. Prefect pass will only be available to its current customers and Mechanical engines.

Zero off is only available to DBW boats and will have any manufactuer that wants Zero Off. I think Tige is not going with Zero Off at this time and is just sticking with their Speed Set system.

Was this a buy out or a patent issue?

Both will co-exist but in different markets. I guess. Also I think this means PP will be gone in a few years.

That sucks! I guess I better upgrade to Stargazer sooner rather than later.

Perfect Pass is your only option. Since you don't have TBW. Stargazer or the older style will work

Not a bad option, either. I love my PerfectPass! :ro:

Definately not. I didn't mean to infer that. It would be my preference even if I had a choice

I installed a PP Wakeboard Pro system in our boat 2 years ago and love it.
The PP website doesn't list the Wakebaord Pro anymore, just the StarGazer: http://www.perfectpass.com/perfect_pass_products.html
Ordered a StarGazer Upgrade kit for ours today.

Well there are just two versions, both work on the same principal but one is set up for wakeboarding, probably easier to use. Probably more of a set a speed and it goes. Whereas the 3 Event version obviously is set up for skiing and has more bells and whistles.
