Boat is projected to sell for $49,999. It will come standard with EVERYTHING that all other boats offer. Huge gravity fed ballast, Perfect pass, big motor, big stereo, tons of storage, and plenty of bling. Some of the extras will be... Side to side automatic balancing ballast system. Will automatically monitor ballast when requested to ensure proper balancing of the boat. Hydraulic swim grid. It will adjust in height so that when running the swim grid will not dig into the water. Also, when putting on the wakeboard, the board will be above water level. Hull will be 100% carbon fibre. May need Grant aka Whitechocolate to start that! Electrictronically controlled collapsing tower, with swivel board racks. Infrared sensors will automatically monitor the shape of the wake and adjust boat speed, ballast, and rope length for the most optimal point of take off. Lots of more extras.... but to lengthy to mention... But willing to share and take into account anyones ideas for the unveiling of this new boat. Gotta get back into the shop and get back to building!

obviously Kyle hasn't tried to buy Carbon fiber recently. If he had he'd know that you can't get it right now...thus making a Carbon fiber hull out of the question.

After a night in the shop... we have come up with a couple of new ideas. The bow off the boat will have hydraualic rams which will allow the boat to extend from a 19 foot boat to a 24 foot boat. So it makes the boat legal for most lakes who have length restrictions. Also increases bow seating from 2 to 5 people. The swim grid will lift and retract under the rear sunpad. Thus making it easier to back into most garages. We are still hoping to have this boat on the market at $49,999... but we are trying secure Whitechocolate... but we know we will have to buck up for a huge signing bonus and a 10 year contract. But we are working on it. Our team edition will be 100% cnc'd out of a block of titanium... and the rubail will consist of countersunk 1 carat diamonds. The team edition we are hoping to hit the market at $1,000,000. We have two orders already, let me know if you want one! Again we havent come up with a name, but if you have some ideas, Please share!

How does that story go... it's something like it takes one man a day to tear down what took another years to build. Maybe someone missed the memo about always following The Great Northern Golden Opinion.

Is this the same kid that went on a bender a few months back, posted all kinds of crazy some product that would revolutionize wakeboarding blak blah blah... This was kinda funny but now that the boat will "extend" just to pass size restrictions it is down right hilarious. Where is that picture of the special olympics kid when you need it?

you should put wings on it that you can adjust up or down to create lift or drag.... and fire out from under the bow seats. maybe some fire from under the swim step too. that would be cool. Oh ya, sign me up for the team edition. and name it "pipe dream"

since the boat grows, maybe you should call it "the chub", or "woody".... do you have to rub it to make it grow, or does a girl have to do it for you? I'm confused.

Still working on the alternative energy power plants to power this beast. We are thinking of a solar powered engin just enough to get forwarad momentum... then the headwind turns a turbine which creates power to the other engine... Still trying to work out a final few details on that one... stay tunes.. just going back into the shop to crank this one up!

The bow hydrolic pumps will be filled with liquid Viagra to insure fast extension and at least 4 hours of extra seating....also the retractable line will store in a bath also filled with the LV to allow custom tensions on the line for different riders. These options make the price a little stiff though!

i think you should put some asian spinner (errrr massage therapists) in the storage lockers so when your done riding you can get a back rub and a bean snap. Also if its possible a six man poker table would be nice but only if you can keep it under 50k though.

how about a hot tub in the back too for those cold days or after a hard ride? or maybe a jet engine underwater that heats the lake up so you can ride year round? actually better go nuke with the cost of jet fuel these days, right? so kyle how about some photos of protoypes or some sketches of design ideas? I wanna see your concept for the viagra bow.....

How about a Michael Knight watch where I can talk to it and tell it to come and pick me up at the courtesy dock.

Screw the electronic folding tower and retracting swim deck ! Just make that biaaatch fold into a suitcase with handle at the push of button. No towing and when done, just toss it into the back of truck

Thanks Kyle. someone needed to bring some reality to a certain "unnamed" boat company. All we need now is the typical post from the owner of that company and this would qualify as "HYPE". Kyle you shouldn't hire Giles or your boat might actually get built and have customer demo's in less than a month. I think they call it "product testing".
