i don't like the new tower at all. Those racks are going to bust just like the ones on my 22v.

after seeing int. pics it doesn't look too small. i think that it is a little light though. i'd love to see pics of the wake, w/ and w/o ballast

Is there no pull up carpet in the front?

The new tower looks way more sturdy than the ones they have had in years past. I would rather have that one than the one I have. Not that the one I have is real bad but I do like the way they squared it off. functions is more important to me than look. Of course style does have to be part of it yes.

All,

I have edited and deleted some replies that were not directly related to the Z1. This thread is dedicated to the Z1 and not product slandering.

Also it’s probably good someone did not get a picture of the wake with the rough water conditions. Grapevine Lake (lake the dealer meeting was at) is notorious for being rough. For that reason the picture of the wake has to be precise, if not all of the "wake experts" make there decision based off the picture of the wake without ever riding behind it. Anyway…my

Don't like the transom, but love the bow, gel coat and graphics. If it's priced in the 40-50K range, they'l do well with this combination.

I would say being that it is a little smaller than the 24V they should price it around the 35-40 range and they will fly of the show rooms.

Yes they will fly out of the dealers.


IS there a Z2 coming by chance cuz I want that

[kko]

yeah i was right.... that 50/50 hatch is stupid.

[CP3]

I dont like the hatch cuz everytime you go to get in the storage the motor is right there

I'm betting those one piece billet (meaning that the 2 pieces that were bolted together and prone to break) board racks are going to be as strong as ever. That design change right there, is proof that Tige listens to thier customers and does address issues.

Thanks for listening Andrew, but, I haven't received my Board Rack royalty check yet

Coolant reservoir for the closed cooling system I'm betting.

I agree that it is different then what most of us are use to, but it's not unlike a lot of other boats that have a single hatch cover/sun deck that you have to lift to gain access to either storage compartment.

I am surprised that Tige didn't craft some sort of a lift-out, plastic tray that goes over the motor with that 2 piece sun deck design. It looks like you could have it sit on top of the engine bay, and maybe have two small pockets or wells on the left and right side of the air cleaner to put binding slime, rope, or something small.

Of course it would have the added benefit of hiding the engine AND preventing people from dropping stuff down into the engine bay....Like Binding Slime, ropes, and for all you guys with wives and daughters....Hair scrunchies, hair clips, ankle bracelets, etc...

Why not do that??

OK, I am no MS Paint pro, but something like this......

Can you imagine how many scraped up arms and hands you would get fishing for dropped stuff out of the engine bay with that design? Yeesh

Can you imagine how many scaped arms and hands you would get digging dropped stuff out of the engine bay with that design? Yeesh

Thats what I thought would be there before I saw the pics of it open.
