Ebay and Craigslist finds for Tige Owners

[kenr08]

I have been looking at that one. It is green and black. I could swear that I quoted it already above once. They were listing a price of 56 or 57K. The boattrader ad now has a 'call for price' attached to it. If I could just sell my MC fast enough, I would consider it.

Kind of off topic, but why are you looking to sell your MC?

Seems priced kinda low but nice boat.

He just wanted to give MC a fair chance. He has and now it's time to come home.

I am going to put it all out on the line right here. My personal experience is that all boats have problems. My 2006 MC has not been any more trouble free than my 2005 Tige was. There were design flaws I find pretty piss-poor on the MC...and there were a few of those on the Tige too.

I just think the MC does not justify the price difference. So if I can get into a newer boat that might have a warranty and a newer feel without a big layout of cash, I will do it.

This thread will typically ramble on, so I will hijack. The top of the list are an Tige RZ2 and Malibu 247. So when I sell, I will have to see what is available and pick what seems best. To be honest, I am still leary of the whole screen thing until they have been out for a few years...so I would probably pick an 09 model year. There are some great deals on 09's out there...but I can't buy one until I sell, I am not going to do a Da Bell and own 2 boats at the same time. I have a lot of little cleanup items on my MC that might scare away a few buyers, so realistically, it might not happen until spring.

I would really like to come home.

Good luck with your future sale and whatever boat you end up with.

That is a couple of thousand higher than I sold my 20V for It even has conservative colors.

I wish I was in market but not for a while if ever. I wonder what the story is on this ride. At that price unless something is terribly amiss wow!!!

I added two Tige cleats in bow area and when docking we used these more than the stock ones by the windshield. Tige etched cleats were pricey but matched. In hindsight I would just go with Attwood or other nameless cleats. I guess hindsight is 20/20.

2007 RZ2 with only 46 hours. 45K starting price. If it does not go up from there, might be a pretty good find.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2009-...rQ5fMotorboats

And this RZ2 2009 with only 4 hours for 56K buy it now. 50K starting point.

Thats funny, my boat came with cleats by the bow and I added 2 by the windshield, but I mostly use them to hang big fenders.

Tiges come with 4 cleats standard and 6 as the upgrade. On the Rz's - 2 in the bow and 2 on the stern and the upgrade pair would go mid-ship. On all the others - 2 in the stern and 2 mid-ship and the upgrade pair on the bow.
