"Stock Surf Ballast. One driver. One passenger. Straight line. Enough said."

Lookin good, when are we gonna see the boat?

What do you mean, I see a bit of what looks like a green swim platform!

some teaser or what?

wow

So they up the size of the stock ballast, and show that off. But still, no one is going to surf that with stock ballast and think they have something great. I know it'll put out a great wave eventually, after seeing Ragboy's thread, but stock just doesn't cut it in any boat. Lets see that boat with 2.5k in it, that would be a good teaser.

They posted pics now. The RZR

Both are pickle forks.

That blue/black/white colour scheme looks great on that boat. Gotta say I'm a bit jealous of the matching tower.

One thing I never really understood is why Tige, and others recently, cut back on the sun-pad. I'm a big fan of the big ones seen on Supra's and Sangers. It just seems like wasted space if it's treated more as a walkway than a place to liedown.

You get a cushion that fits in there, so you can have full sun deck, or remove the cushion for walk through. For a guy like me with a large family, we leave the cushion at home. And with a boat wide like the RZ2, its still plenty of cushion.

I agree 100%....there are so many boat owners that have had the opportunity to complain about the sun pad vinyl tearing taken away from them with these damn old walk-thru transoms :p :D

J/k! In all seriousness, the walk-thru was one of the top 3 reasons why we went with Tige 4 years ago and passed on others that were more expensive. Like Ragboy said, they come with a filler, but we never, ever used ours.

I love that we have a walkway instead of a big old sun pad. My first boat was a Rinker 192 Captiva and the sole reason that we bought it was because it had a walkway instead of having to walk over the vinyl every time. I really love that Black and Blue RZR, very nicely done!

@ragboy, what do you think of the shape of that swim platform on that R20? Looks like they've dialed it in a little more than the newer RZ one.

man those a great looking! any info out about them???

Anybody notice the tower on the RZ0 looks like pipes swooping forward instead of a solid frame?

The one with the tubes is the entry level boat which they are targeting a lower price point imo to compete with axis. I heard it'll start out in the low 40's.

low 40's... same price as a Z1 isn't the Z1 a foot longer at 21 feet?

Yeah, Z1 is a foot longer but the R20 probably has same/more room because it would be like a 22' boat with the point cutoff 2' short (if that makes sense) which makes for a larger bow.

I am very in the RZR. I cant wait to check one out. If they feel roomy inside, It might be the boat for me.
