    New to me 09 Tige 22ve

    Went and looked at it last Thursday and went for a water test yesterday afternoon. Didn't get in the water but I'm not really worried about it. Anything will throw way bigger of a wake than my current boat. Has 216 hrs on it and has additional rear bags piggybacked off of the stock ballast. When I get sometime I will re-due the rear tank bags to be on their own pumps and lines. The current configuration takes too long and only runs 3/4" lines. Coming from my 2000 MB B52 this is a world of difference in all categories. DD to VDrive finally with all the bells and whistles the MB never had. I'm pretty excited as my MB was becoming an issue as 5 was crowded in the boat. The wives and kids weren't able to all fit and with the boat being low in the water on some days it was down right scary. If the average wake boat went by me while I was parked I would have to start the engine and get the nose up so it didn't dunk. When you are trying to swim it can be a real pain. I will now be able to put up a nice surf wave that everyone can ride much easier. I finally get to ride a huge wake if I want but now that I finally have the boat I have always wanted my body doesn't like the punishment anymore.lol. Anyway, pretty excited and can't wait to get her back out and play. This changes everything this summer.

    Now i'm on the hunt or to get a bimini made and Fae. I didn't want to pull the trigger with Stu Reynolds until I knew I had the boat and I missed out on his surf bimini for sale. I'm shaking my fist in the air.lol. Once I have it home I also plan on removing the decals from each side right away. Hopefully it's not to faded. Also just need to get my Malco out and clean the vinyl up and make it purdy again.

      Nice boat. Post pics after you pull the decals. Been considering it on my '09 22ve. I had an '07 22ve with the blue and black color scheme. I now have red and black. I am jealous of yours.

                Pretty sure I saw that one on craigslist. Really nice, and if its the same one I saw the price was good too.

                    Same one retox1. I emailed the guy less than an hour after he posted it and was the first to go look at it last week. He posted on Wednesday, I went and looked at it on Thursday night. The guy left Friday for the weekend and got back yesterday afternoon to which I met him in the afternoon to water test and sealed the deal. He had about 12 emails regarding it so I couldn't try and haggle him on price but I thought it was already a good deal at $44k CDN so I scooped it up. I guess it can pay to troll Craigslist daily or even multiple times a day.

                            Same colors as my 2009 24Ve. Interior looks identical other than being a bit shorter. Feels like I'm looking at photos of my own boat! You'll love it. Welcome to the club, you won't find a nicer group of boat owners anywhere!
