Thinking About A New Boat

I would man up and let you know what I did, even though it would feel cheap after having the banks involved and everything. I understand that if someone local showed up with money in hand, he would be tempted to sell from under you, but not answering calls suddenly is so weak.

I suspect with the resources of the forum, you will find another in no time. If you find something in St. George, I would be happy to do a preliminary scouting for you.

Thanks for the laugh. I appreciate that. I'd be super happy to find a boat as close as St. George. Right now, Texas seems to be where they all are.

Unfortunately people commit, back our on a whim all of the time. The stories you hear on the daily are quite wild. Sorry josh.

There are a couple of Z3s at our dealer in the low 60's - I have to go down there soon to pick up a take off platform (hoping to swap my HUGE platform for one they have off of a '14) so I could take some pics and check it out if you needed.

This seems like a great deal. Time to drive up to Canada! Eh?

UNSTUCK,
Tried to PM but you are full. Couple of nice used Tiges in Boise. Little over you mark though. Just a heads up and closer to SLC.

Here's my take on $60k vs $69k boats.....not a big enough difference to make me settle for something that isn't quite what I want. $30k vs $60k or $65k vs $110-$130k......now those are big differences and worth settling for.

Especially once you factor in how much boating actually costs. Figure $100 every time you take it out of the garage. $2000 in surfboards. Wet suits, dry suits, new bathing suits, sunglasses, etc... I think on my old 2200v I had more money in boards, foils, skis, bindings, wetsuits and dry suits than the boat was worth.

That 2013 Z3 for $70k is pretty freakin sweet and will make you a happy camper for years. It's pretty close to what your max budget was and will scratch that itch. Plus...64 hrs on the ZR6 motor is great. Gotta love Idaho boats. Super short season, friggin cold lakes and too cold to leave outside = lots of low hour, very well cared for boats.

Bakes,
I didn't notice but that 2013 just sold and is heading to Vegas. The black and red 2014 is the sweetest of the lot. It was our owners family boat. Extremely well cared for, all maintenance done. Shrink wrapped every winter. Has a VX. Low hours. Pretty much the total package. With the 6.0L it's pretty much perfect. Way too rich for my blood, but knowing the history of that boat, if I had the coin that would be it for me.
I'm sure its blasphemy to say here but for the same price you could be into a new moomba craz. Been super impressed with the Craz. Skiers Choice has stepped up their game big time.

I've been very interested in this boat for a long time. There is no contact information though. I have emailed three times but the guy wont respond. I figured it was sold, but once again he has renewed the ad. I don't get it.

Anyone know this boat?

My old ultra ballasted 24Ve is for sale I heard....StealthCowboy owns. Ask thegerman for his contact info. It's got all you need--I eliminated speedset and its ballasted out the nose.

I just heard this too--it would be well in your budget I am sure. I know what I sold it for!

It's a great boat. All needs addressed. The cruise system (Hydrophase) is MONEY.

Sold

I emailed him again yesterday and he called me back. Still for sale. Sounds like it's in great condition. The owner is supposed to show it to a buddy as soon as the owner gets back from Hawaii. If it doesn't sell then he will get back to me. I think the price is too high though.
