Is it still top secret or

I'd be curious where Tige is making their money. Is it on the RZX series with all the ballast and the bells and whistles? Or is it on all the new R series boats, which are basically the RZ and Z boats of 5 years ago with more budget friendly materials and designs.

I assume it's on the big boats with big margins, but I can tell you if I was buying again it would be the R series.

The Rzx line is killing thats for sure.

I’ve said it before, I would LOVE an R series RZX3. I dont think that’s in the works this year though.

Never going to happen.

People who are spending 130-150 have no desire to strip down to save 6-8k. It will never be in the cards for the Rzx line. Makes little to no sense.

Ill share a few things without going in to detail...please dont ask me to explain because I cant, and thats for a multitude of reasons that I am sure you all can understand. Competitive advantage for Tige being the main.

1. Tige is ecstatic with the Rzx Line. The feed back, the usability and performance etc all have made the series a huge huge hit with no sign of letting up. Its not perfect but its definitely Tiges most advanced platform to date. As you can imagine, consumers have asked questions in regards to Tige expanding that specific line. I can tell you its coming. I wont tell you in which direction its happening but a resize is on the way.

2. Tige has always been loyal to the traditional bow sleek line boat. The Z line is such a performer, both in regards to on the water performance and looks. The loyalists and cult like die hards have been asking for a revamp... It would be silly to think that they havent been listening.... Stuff is coming so just sit back, and wait with no expectation in regards to timeline.

From the Technical side, Tige is going to some awesome cutting edge stuff with CAD etc.... They are really trying to change the culture by changing the way boats are produced and made in regards to bettering consistency from the smallest parts in production to the largest. Charlie and all of the guys in Abilene have an impressive grasp on the vision of Tige. Saying I left the meeting proud to be an owner would be an understatement.

They may be making more of a crossover boat like nautiques gs series.
