I love the GSA's with hydraulic-electric actuators. All of the Tige line has them as well.
For sure! I’m praying those end up being an aftermarket system, for older boats. I know you said it isn’t likely soon, if ever, but a man can hope, can’t he!!???
Yeah, it looks like it could have some decent stuff going for it. I have no idea why they use that red/black/white combo for marketing, that combo is pretty hideous. Some of the stuff on it looks pretty good, although still not a huge fan of the windshield or tower. I’d like to see one in person, although I likely wouldn’t roll one.
I do have to say had I known atx was coming out I might have waited to buy the z3. 22ft to me is the sweet spot between large enough to carry a few when needed but small enough to not need a funky garage to park in.
interested to see one in person. a trip to see jason might be in order in the near future.
Tige R23: went out on a buddies a few weeks ago and really liked the boat. If I go this route I will try to find a leftover ‘19. My only reserve about the R23 is lack of freeboard. Boat sits low in water compared to other newer style boats.

I’d think twice about an hold over. 2019 will be Taps3, 2020 will be GSA with actuators that measure true position. I haven’t witnessed it, but all the tige experts are saying GSA has a better wave and much more consistent. I’d bet you won’t save much on a hold over vs buying a 2020 at the right time, say December! Plus you can custom order the 2020.
I plan to purchase a boat over the falll/winter and think this is where I’m at:
ATX 22: know nothing about it other than it will be Tige’s value brand. I like what i have seen so far, with exception of window, but it’s growing on me. Boat looks deep and has a good bit of freeboard from what i can tell. Hope to find out more tomorrow after the release.

Moomba Kaiyen: new model for 2020 so details are slowly coming out. It is a mini Makai, and sort of resembles a Supra SA with less features and luxuries. 3700 lbs subfloor ballast, deep boat with a lot of freeboard. Hope to find it more soon when I visit the dealer.
I think I have narrowed it down to those 3. Maybe throw In a moomba mojo or Craz but they would be at bottom of list. My previous boat was a Yamaha 242 so any one of these would be an upgrade.
