Sold my Tige' upgrade to...?

[Zerps]

I have a Z1 and luv the surf wake. Took some fine tuning, but its great. Kids are able to surf with only one fat sac in rear compartment! Also plenty of space. Lots of compartments to place fat sacs.

Check out porky1 thread......

Hi all. Getting to the point where I absolutely need to sell my Z1. As such I am getting ready to update my sale price to the amount of my loan ($52,000). Real good deal for anyone looking. Thought I'd throw out to the Tigeowners community before making this update to see if there was any interest. Here's the link to the craigslist listing. http://sacramento.craigslist.org/boa/3237747826.html

Sweet boat for a sweet price!!

I dont know how to lay pavers!

Learn! There's never been a time in history when so much information was so readily available.

Example: Until a couple of years ago I had never laid a single tile in my life. Now my wife and I put down hundreds of square feet of limestone, with a full embedded electrical heating system, and there's not an "expert" in sight. She cuts the tile on the tile saw, I lay the tiles. I'm sure an "expert" would do it faster but they won't do it better - and we're saving thousands and thousands of dollars.

Example: My cedar shake roof was 20 years old last Spring and needed replacing. I've never done any roofing in my life. I read a lot, talked to a few people, rousted up a couple of friends, rented a boom lift, and went to work. We replaced the entire roof with dimensional shingles including stripping the old material, repapering, new vents, new valleys, everything.

Ditto for ballast systems, sheetrock, heating and air conditioning, plumbing, all sorts of engine maintenance, the list is endless. Landscaping is labor intensive but not difficult. The few unusual tools can be rented, and Bobcats are really fun to operate.

You can do it!

Do it yourself, in the offseason. That's what we did. Saved a huge amount of money. Most of landscaping is labor.

Bought it at the boat show, then got the landscape bids......ouch! All I can say is I never thought that landscaping was soooooo pricey.

who cares why he is selling Its his choice. I had a 2010 Corvette ZR1 that I sold and bought my boat, everyone thought it was stupid....Glad every second I drive my boat that I sold that car. Amazing car but priorities change.

I'm just sayin....it's not for sale, but it could be!

The only reason I have the RZ2 is because I snuck it in after we closed on the new house! I sold my Malibu to have cash in case I had 2 mortgages....well I sold the old house right before we moved in to the new one. So I told the boss, she sure as heck wasn't using the boat cash for a bunch of foo foo things and furniture!

All I can say is I never thought that landscaping was soooooo pricey. Although, I do have paver sidewalks.

But sell your boat for landscaping. Are you serious?

Methinks there is a woman in this equation somewhere....

[Wakeman22]

I am in the landscape business and that must be some kind of yard. But sell your boat for landscaping. Are you serious?

[IDBoating]

OMG, sell your boat to put in landscaping that will require all of your formerly-on-the-boat time to maintain the yard???

I cannot imagine a worse tradeoff.

[2thdoc01]

OMG, sell your boat to put in landscaping that will require all of your formerly-on-the-boat time to maintain the yard???

HA! Nope, I have a service that will do that for 62 clams a week!

But I may need the extra cash.....the front yard and grass was 75k plus the irrigation system...which was 12k. The back yard patio is 25k alone....so I could be tempted to cash out for now. Id buy another once the funds recoup!

[Duncan]

I might be tempted to sell mine....got a big landscape project coming....

only issue for me is I do trailer mine....that is a beautiful boat though!!! I want to ride behind a RZ2 to see what its like...I feel I may want the 6.0l over the EX343

I might be tempted to sell mine....got a big landscape project coming....I think the 343 is perfect....Once you get the 1235 prop on it...it pulls out of the hole like a mule and still tops out at 41.8 mph according to the guages. I was not happy with the stock prop, but the shark sold me his 1235 and It made the boat a whole new animal!

[TeamAllen]

Sorry barry, I was thinking of the OP Harv. It sounded like he uses a lift.
I'm sure you could order a trailer if the rest of the boat worked out.

[barry1me]

Ther is another TO thinking of selling his 2012 RZ2 with 43 hours on it, no trailer for $70-$75K range. Check it out , if you haven't already. Might be a fit for you, especially since it soumds like you keep yours on a lift as well?
