200 booked thru December!!

[SNMike]

Just got off the phone with Jeff, and CC is building the 200 as fast as they can, all pre-sold. Good and bad I suppose, as they're having somewhat of a time getting parts because some vendors are gone with the wind.

Taylor Made is the only windshield supplier left. So if any dealer has a 200 on their floor that isn't sold, they're lucky. Jeff is sending customers to the factory for a demo, then they're placing their orders.

As for MC and BU..................well let's just say it's good not to be them.


Regards to all!!

Very cool! Doubt many are from us promo guys. I only know of one on the east coast (FL to Maine). It's going to be an interesting 2010 for tournaments....

Sorry to burst your bubble - I was told this at the Worlds a month and a half ago. Which means they have not sold any since then. I was also told the quota is very, very low for the 200. All the prod slots are for wakeboard boats.

Oh, there are at least 4 unsold in Western Canada alone. And there are several windshield mfgs. besides Taylormade still in biz.

Not bursting my bubble. I was just relaying what I was told. I never said it was gospel. As for the windshields, CC was buying from TM and one other only. Again, what I was told. There's a lot of info I get that I'm told in the strictest of confidence buy CC insiders, so if my info differs from others, I can't/won't dispute who's right or wrong, as it's really none of my bees wax anyway. There's more good stuff coming from CC that will strengthen everyone's confidence in the company we all are loyal to.

Not sure if I should mention a name, but a cool piece of info that I will share is a long time prominent pro MC driver drove the 200.............AND then ordered his very own.

Then has his tow vehicle .....um..... de-decaled. Is that a word?!?! Yellow_Flash_Colorz:

As always, Regards to all!!

My info came from Andy Mapple. No matter - it is a heck of boat - can't wait to test one and see if the tom speed/table works for barefoot.

Cool! Mine comes from Andy, once removed as it were. Yellow_Flash_Colorz:

Andy's a good man, I've met him and talked with him several times.

Not as nice for footing as the 196, for barefoot you will need the 409. First hand experience.

de-decaled or RE-decaled? Did he just take it off or replace it with something with a little more class? Yellow_Flash_Colorz:

If memory serves, not much faster than the Excal.

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: 200 booked thru December!!

OK, so what is the top speed with 343 and with the 409. I guess I'm surprised to hear you need a 409 to foot it???

[j2nh]

Probably 4 MPH slower than the 196 (excalibur) and slower out of the hole.

[oldslalomskier]

So... 42-43 mph with the 343? And shouldn't the prop make a diff on hole shot?
