Thread: New purchase - Tige

My uncle just purchased a boat and my mom decided our family needed one too. Been looking around a while and today I closed a deal!
2008 20v with a 340hp Vortec & 0 hours.



It needs a stereo & speakers but I'm happy doing a custom job myself.
This will be the first wake boat I get behind and I am PUMPED!

nice boat

Thanks! Seems the Marine section isnt quite as busy as the rest of the forum...

Nice ride...pretty much the route I'll be going once my 27 is sold.

Offseason bro!

We get carried away as soon as the poker runs kick into high gear..

Very nice boat. I rarely see Tiges here on the east coast. I don't think their dealer network is very strong over here. Maybe that's a business opportunity.

Nice, I been riding behind Tige. Does it have ballast tanks?

Ah, well I'll have to liven it up until then. Once all my audio gear arrives I'll try to get a build log going.

No ballast tanks, but when the times comes I'll add a fatsac or two.
For now I'll take the storage space over a ballast system.

And thanks err'one!

The beauty of a factory ballast system is that it doesn't take any space in the cabin and it can be filled by the flip of a switch. You can't say the same for fat sacs.

My vDrive Nautique is an older model that doesn't have any factory ballast either. I run about 550 lbs of lead and one to two fat sacs depending on how many people are in the boat and how much time I feel like spending getting it ready. Sacs are a pain though IMO. I want a Wakesetter VLX pretty bad.

That things pretty sick! Have fun with it!
