i was thinking that wicked... what I cannot figure out is why...

That Nautique 210 has a removable lean back in the middle of the port bench. Don't think I have seen that on a 21 foot boat before.

me either.. Im very sure it costs them alot of sales every year as budgeting for a new boat its nice to have incentive

[canuck]

I like everything on these new boats except for the towers.

I must be old school because I still like the traditional four post towers.

I think this is the best looking tower design ever.

No way the alpha Z is my favorite part of out boat.. The tower is SOLID never makes any noise never rattles never moves.. SIMPLE to stow it away also. IMO if tige got ride of Alpha Z id for sure look into other brands

correct, I have been in a 14 X2, X10, X30 and X46. Not much changed besides colors, carpet, and a new surfboard specific board rack. The 2014 Nautiques look really good. Cant wait to see one in person.

but it is a Samson switchblade tower

[Jeepdude]

Sampson was by far the best tower I have owned.
everything worked awesome and was super stout.

Shoulda clarified it's only the tower that I am referring to.

Up here in BC our dealer used to mainly install Samson Towers on all their boats.

Our 22i came with the older model of Samson Tower.

Not sure of why the hate for I/O's.

I know this is a Tige forum and Tige builds competition ski and wakeboard boats.

Before we got the 22i nine years ago we had a 20' Campion I/O for 4 years.

It was a great boat and certainly does some things better than the Tige.

I will go out into the ocean with the I/O but I wont with the Tige as anything more than a 1 foot sea is too rough for the Tige.

Of course for wakeboarding the Tige wins hands down and you cannot wakesurf behind the I/O.

We are by no means pro skiers or boarders so we might use 10% of the potential of the Tige.

The main reason we ended up with a Tige was we had a family vote for the next boat.

I wanted a 35' cruiser and the family wanted a wakeboard boat ... I lost.
