I just got back from the Gekko dealer meeting in Minneapolis and the future for Gekko is very bright.
As some of you already know, Gekko is now being built by IMAR in Fargo who also builds Sugar Sand jet boats. Let me tell you that these guys and gals are very professional and organized in what they do. It was good to see how committed they are to building the best ski boats humanly possible and to take the Gekko line to a whole new level.
There are going to be huge changes in fit and finish, promotion of the brand, new concepts and ideas that already sets Gekko apart from the other traditional builders. Thicker vinyl, thicker foam on motor boxes and new hull graphics are now on the 2005 models.
They have Bob Carlson on the team whom if you don't already know, took the once small Crestliner company into the huge organization it is today. He is also one of the reasons why Sugar Sand is the biggest seller of jet boats in the world.
Gekko is going to become a major player in the towboat market so make sure you check them out at your next boatshows.
And don't forget to look at the GTS 20. A rocket of a ski boat that you get buy for under $21000 including trailer.
