THEY FINALLY LISTENED IN ON THE BALLAST SYSTEM

did it say how much each additional tank was going to be?? so the surf system would be 900+ what weight on each side?

[da.bell]

Nothing looks to have been said.

That TigeTouch System is sweet!! Well, sounds sweet

Not everyone is going to say that we are copying Malibu with their screens. Not to say that we one-up'ed them

i happen to have *cough cough* seen one of the new screens and noone can say that we copied.. they are completely different, meaning that they dont look anything alike, but the functionality is similer

Man I sure miss, Lee. I'd have a sneak peek, by now. This is ridiculous.

I can't wait to see how the factory 2k systems surfs. A factory surf ready boat would be awesome.

[da.bell]

But the true question here is if they fixed the underside of the swim platform to not have a lip on it. Ragboy has proven beyond a doubt that the lip on the swim platform is causing the wake to have issues.

I thought a Tigé did not need ballast.....

When empty, these bags are retractable to allow full use of the storage area's

RETRACTABLE??????? Hmmmm Sounds like a transformer.

[Guapo]

Can't wait to see it. The snap out carpet (MC) and video screen (Bu) are features that I really wanted but had to overlook when choosing the Tige over the Bu or the MC. Seems Tige is really stepping up and filling in the gaps on offered features to way surpass MC and Bu...

Kinda makes me wish I would have waited a few months and picked up a 2010 instead of the 09.

Good stuff Tige'! In floor ballast, at least in theory, sounds like a beautiful thing. I wonder if the stock system will have enough ballast for most peeps to surf without adding additional bags? Notice I said most peeps. Next question is whether it is easy to add additional bags for the rest of you ballast addicts.

I also wonder what the lifespan of these touchscreens will be. I know my remotes on my clarion seem to have a mind of their own at times and they are only 5 years old. Boats get wet and electronics and moisture don't ususally get along. Still, like the progression of boats, cool stuff will come from it.

Can't wait to see this stuff!

2,000 lbs of ballast!?!?!? SWEEEET! Can't wait to see the new screen and hear more about this surf package! Way to go Tige!!!!

I too think that a 5 year old boat with a touchscreen might be a nightmare. Give me some good analog guages and I am happy any day of the week. I am not confident that this is the way to go in watersports.

MC also decided to put in a similar screen on the dash. The MC site guys were hassling MC about copying 'bu. Something about 'leading the pack' or something like that.

And anyone know of the price increase for this year?
