Well, it's finally happening. I'm making the jump to a 2014 Tige Z3.

Need to sell my current boat first though.

Boat is in Colleyville, TX

Very nice Yamaha AR230. Boat has a ton of upgrades including:
* Stainless Steel Cup Holders
* 2500 Watt Stereo
* WetSounds interior and Tower Speaker
* 10" Alpine Subwoofer
* Upgraded Kenwood head unit with Ipod control, USB input, playlist control from helm and transom remotes
* 4 channel RBG LED lights with light rings on all interior and tower speakers as well as all 7 cup holders.
* Custom built battery box housing 3 batteries for extra long stereo playtime
* On board 2 bank battery charger
* Blue Sea Automatic Charging Relay
* Soundproofing in the engine compartment
* Tower mounted Nav light so you don't need to deal with digging out a pole light
* Cobra Jet Steering which makes low speed navigation a breeze!
* Interior redone this year using Spradling PERMAGUARD® vinyl.
* SeaDek Traction Mats on the Swim Deck
* Custom overhead surf board holder
* 2 board Wakeboard rack
* Tower mounted mirror

It's a very nice boat, and really a must see.

Compare it to other 2005 Yamaha's listed in the area and it's very clear that this boat is really a class above the rest!

Yamaha's are great boats that are extremely fun and easy to drive. They are very low maintenance, and with no prop to worry about, they are safer too!
There is a very large community of Jetboaters. Some of my closest friends I've met through boating. The memories you will cherish forever!

In one of the pictures, you'll see 6 of us Yamaha's tied up at Broken Bow lake just this past weekend.

I'm listing it for $27k on Craigslist, but I'll sell it for $25k to a member here.

Nice...Representing us very well!! Good Luck.
 
You may also want to point out that its never been in salt water. :thumbsup:
 
"Super Sweet" is an understatement! Makes me want to upgrade my 2005 for yours!

Well good luck with the sale! Be sure to post pics of the new Z3. The Z series is one of my favorites.
 
I can vouch for the super sweetness of this boat, got the full tour on Saturday. An incredible deal for a lucky buyer. The meticulous detail in the mods alone make it worth more than then asking IMHO.

You think my wife would get mad if I buy a second boat for those days when I felt like "red" was more my color?
 
I cant wait to go for a cruise in the new wake maker! :D
 
That's great Jim. I guess you're picking up the new one this weekend?
