The Reveal: AutoWake and WakeTouch!

[IDBoating]

I already wear glasses, a monocle would be an improvement!

I think someone needs to start a poll so we can guess which manufacturer he sold the technology to. My vote is for axis

[Captainkurk72]

Tige is my vote. I think they could integrate more easily compared to a company that's put more R&D and patents into surfing (Malibu, Centurion/Nautique/CC, etc)
If Tige could encorporate Avx, Taps3 and AutoWake, you truly have a "Game Changer" in the industry. But just Taps 3 am AutoWake would be a Game Changer
Unfortunelty it's likely going to be a boat that's out of my budget.

Honestly, if I had to guess, I am going with Correct Craft. They have been big on purchases lately. I believe in the last year or so, they have acquired FineLine (Centurion/Supreme), PCM/Crusader Motors and at least 2 other boat manufacturers. With them having 2 Towboat lines that are not "price point" in Nautique and Centurion, they would have the potential for more market share/marketability than the other manufacturers as their 2nd line of boats are considered "price point". Just think of the relationship between Supra/Moomba, Malibu/Axis, Centurion/Supreme. That is my first guess, my 2nd is honestly MB as they are getting a fair amount of recognition and this would really separate them from the pack. I have been wrong so many times before, that I most likely am wrong again this time.

I'm in the process of ordering a 17, so unless it's gonna be on 18's, tige does not own auto wake that they told me about anyway.

[Thegerman618]

I can 99.9% guarantee its NOT Tige, my guess is Supra.

Mid/end of July and nothing yet...

[IDBoating]

We have been notified that they did their dealer network reveal, a multi-day factory meeting which included press representatives. (We've been contacted by the press after the meeting.) But so far they haven't done a big "splash" for the public, no formal press releases, etc. It's only a theory that they haven't confirmed, but given the PR problems in the industry during the past couple of years (ASR, Nautique last year, etc.) they may be rolling it out "carefully".

We appreciate the continued interest everyone has! We'll post anything "formal" as soon as we can.

Now your just dangling the carrot [emoji6]. Can't wait to hear about it.
What about the AutoTouch?

Sorry, it's killing me not being able to say anything.

What is "AutoTouch"? We've discussed AutoWake, which is the technology purchased by [company to be named later]. And there's our Tablet Helm technology, which uses commercial tablets as an inexpensive and flexible touchscreen helm system. Not sure which you mean by "AutoTouch".

Sorry meant waketouch the tablet tech

Tablet Helm is working through its next patent at the moment. In the meantime, we are in the home stretch on another product that will be VERY interesting to folks here, and owners of virtually every other brand of inboard boat as well. We won't have anything to demonstrate or talk about until the Fall, but things are looking good and we look forward to introducing that to the industry.

Tablet Helm will likely follow that, as the two will be complementary.

We have so many ideas, yet can only pursue 1-2 at a time. Anybody know a way to get more than 24 hours in a day?!?

[UNSTUCK]

Yes, but it takes a Delorean.

[robert theisen]

Does the company have a E or an A in their name? Can I buy a vowel?
