White and blue plaid shorts was throw'n down

my turn, as soon as I get my replacement board and boots from Hyperlite that is

Maybe I missed it, but how much is the "factory" ballast? It's not listed on mastercrafts website but I remember seeing some state that the factory ballast was 2000lbs.

I guess the real question is how much total weight was the boat running for these pictures?

I was told 1800 & 2000 lbs factory. Plus the above amounts.

Mhunter- no **** there wasn't a 2012 star. You are even worse than I thought before.

So you Make a post about a boat that never existed .I call you on it and its my bad?
Rest assured I have no thoughts about you.

Referenced the 2012 line in general, every stab you take at the MC lineup is based on a bunch of QC issues in 2012, and are already fixed for 2013.

So what did they fix in 2013?

Hahaha I love my little puppet MHunter. I don't even need to insult him anymore he just opens his mouth and his horrible syntax and poor reasoning skills do more harm than I ever could.

I'm going to call him into that new G thread....let's see him tarnish the G name over there too.

Mhunter, changed the power tower, went to murphy screens, no plug & play anymore. All 2012 problems were related to the touchscreens essentially.

Good to know I hope that takes care of it?

Has CC taken care of the exploding tranny issues yet? Have they taken care of the other issue, that is, how to sell this boat? Apparently, 2nd biggest CC dealer in world up in Canada has only sold 4 this year and has only 7 slots for next year.

This boat is such a "game changer." Hard to recoup your R&D dollars when your biggest dealers can't even sell what you can count on your hands.

Where do you get your information from??

Who is this question addressed to?

If this is true, Nautique and MHunter are getting served.

Who is posting sales facts from a Canadian dealer?

Maybe it's just me, but I'd rather know what the top few US dealers are doing...

2nd biggest boat dealer in Canada may only sell 10 total boats per year with their short seasons for I know....

Really like the red and black XStar TXMC has, can't wait to throw down behind her.
Where do you plan'n on put'n her in this weekend Craig

Swing by the shop Mark, I'll drag you around a bit...

I think that 7.4 is going to be here tomorrow afternoon so i better take it out this weekend to see wussup..

I believe he is referring to the 2nd largest CC Dealer in the World... Happens to be our dealer here in Alberta. Not sure who number 1 is? And they happen to be the number 1 dealer for Malibu Worldwide as well...

Love the Color combo on that X-Star Craig. I am a Red fan...

I am assuming you can run the boat with the Screen in the retracted position? That would make for great visibility out the windshield...

i told Mike yall need to bring one of those out to east texas :)

@ RPenner Yes sir, you can run the boat with the power dash in the down position. It comes up after a few seconds when you start the boat but it can manually lowered.

@Bill Is there any water in Cypress Springs?

ive never been there so im not sure? we always go to lake tyler or up to broken bow

Lake Tyler is nice too.. I like the concrete channel passage way.. lol I sold a 525hp pontoon boat there a few years back so if you get passed at 70mph you'll know where it came from. That thing had racing exhaust and was louder than most Fountains.. The guy that owns it has a super nice Newell bus that he keeps in his garage there at the lake. The garage has an automatic washing system that comes out of the walls and washes the bus every 2 days with ionized water so it doesn't leave spots... lol Only in Texas!!!

^^^Did you notice if this guy has a daughter? Im still looking:)

Number one MC dealer in world is based out of Calgary in Alberta as well. Calgary is only a few hundred miles from me.

That was her in the TCU jersey..

Ur killin me lol

I've never seen that pontoon out there..sounds like a wild ride!

Bring that star on out here sometime

Actually Edmonton is the largest mover of MCs. They also have locations in Calgary, Kelowna, Sakatoon, and one other place north of me.

Troy, where are you located?

Oh, and Saskatoon is where they sold Rusty Malinoski's custom X-Star sporting his wrap including his ballast setup and his Rock Star enery drink decals. They just sold it last month. It was pretty slammed, it had like 433 hours on it.

Coeur D'Alene, Idaho. Plenty of Canadians around here who come from Alberta. I guess everyone up there is loaded. I've talked to both Martin Motorsports in Calgary and Wizard Lake Marine in Edmonton I think.

Guessing the TCU color XStar will find its home on lake Tyler.
What color 7.4 XStar
Craig, you at TXMC/MB Saturday?

TCU boat is going to be at Joe Pool...

I'll be at the shop around 12:30 Sat

7.4 Black with red

Just got this lil 7.4L in this morning...

Man Im not gonna lie, if I ever buy a boat, Im gonna have yall pick out my color scheme. The boats yall order are gorgeous. Minus the (still hasnt grown on me hip lines and tower) awesome looking boats.

I'm anxious to see these next 2... should be here in just a few weeks...

Thanks Thomas.

That black and red is a nice looking boat Craig!

As always, tremendous work Craig. I would love to see either of those black/red ones sitting in the water. Especially slumped out. There was absolutely no boat sexier boat then the 2003-2011 Xstar slumped on the water.

Done.

oooo - that white with the black & red is MONEY!!!

I like the interior a lot on that one too Miguel.. That much red and black is prob too flashy for most but i kinda dig it..

TCU coming together too!!!

Frogstar!!

Cant' wait to see the Charcoal and Green... That is a sweet Color combo....

Dang Craig, Blk Wht and Red very nice
MC Design a Boat doesn't do them justice
wheres my Wht Blk and Green;)
Oh yeah next year I forgot, Whoa Nellie

just in case you forgot what she looks like

I just need to secure a small build-a-boat deposit from you Mark and I'll have it here in October.. lol

That Star looks flat out fantastic on the water! Sweet, sweet, sweet! Leaving the comparison to only this one criteria, the Star beats the tugboat, I mean G23, hands down.

Craig- great looking boats man. Love the combinations. Might be a stupid question, but are all these boats sold already? Just out of curiosity. Lovin the TCU colors.

The TCU boat is the only one sold in this group right now..

Let me say - this boat looks even better in person....

Nice job Craig - great seeing you guys today.

This thing makes the g23 look like a pregnant Moomba. The g23 wake may be king, but this is a far sexier boat

This, the z3/rzr and x30/10 must be the best looking boats I've seen come out in years...

Our newest creation arrived yesterday.

^that one is about my speed. Gorgeous boat. Too bad it costs more than a house....

Once again you guys hit it out of the park. I asked for it on the last one but water pic please.

beautiful colour combo. I love the grey.

great looking boat! curious, why not go black on the "mastercraft" to make it easier to see? maybe in person it is???

thanks Brett... I can't be gettin water spots all over that boat man. lol
Dude, our lake is so low right now it will high center the trailer coming out of the ramp...

DHill, the graphic just sort of came in blue. I didn't realize it would be the same as the rear of the boat. It actually looks kinda cool in person. Everyone at the shop loved the colors on this one. I figured it would be different when i punched it in.. The trailer was the only unknown. I hadn't done one like that yet.. Sometimes you just have to gamble!

Sharp boat,nice job.

alright so by my count that is already at least 6 Stars sold in texas. I have seen 3 come through Texas ski ranch, with another 2 on the way. These boats are sick. I think the thing that most blew me away was how simple these boats are in the interior. They are just smooth and sexy, it is not chunky and gauty inside. things are just hidden away until needed, really bad ass.

That blue and black boat is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.

I agree!

ok that boat looks amazing!!

I know there are already plenty of black and lime green ones out there, but here is our newest XStar...

^^^Sure as heck looks better than Rusty's big solid blue cookie monster

http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/11/02/9udanute.jpg

That black and blue x-star is sweeeeet!!

craig,
that lime green/black/grey star is definitely the best color combo i've seen so far. I know its not a standard color, but would they let you order one with the green flake as on travis' boat last year? that setup with the green flake would be out of control...

oh, and please please please powdercoat the tower lime green/black...

So if they are at dealers and 6 sold in TX what do they cost? Is $160 or not?

Craig - How come none of these X-Stars have the power tower? You'd think the flagship tower would be a popular feature on the flagship boat... certainly boats with all the bells and whistles as these appear to have. I mean, why get a 7.4L motor (can't even fathom what that costs), but skip on the power tower?

Or is this what the new power tower looks like? Or has MC stopped making it altogether? I'm confused... What's the scoop?

DBC- I think those all have power towers. You can see the hydraulic arms.

thats not the power tower, all MC's towers have the "shock absorbers" on the tower

Wake looks better. Water looks superb
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/11/03/9uge2y2e.jpg

My mistake, arms looked like hydraulics. So do they still have the power tower or did they phase it out.

what ever tower it is...........it still looks like crap
