    I got to drive the new 220

    Just got back from the Vallejo reunion and what a HOOT. Meet some great people and saw some really nice boats! Best of all, I got to drive the new 220. We were the last ones to demo and Jim Hammer took us out. He took us around the Marine World lake and showed us all the cool features and then on the way back in ask if I wanted to drive. I all most tripped over myself getting to the drivers seat fast enough. Not only did I get a 20 minute drive, I drove with the ballast empty, full, port side full for surfing, wake gate up and down. Through my Nautique goggles, that boat is the BOMB! Even better, when we got back to the dock, a bunch of the staff loaded in the boat to take one of Marine World wakeboarders for a set. HOLY CRAP-that guy was throwing raleys 12-15' high and 20 feet out and just to mix it up a huge hoochie, tantrum, crow mobe, and a 5 off the double up(the boat is rock solid through the double up). On a side note Jim said they were only going to get (7) 220's this year and they would all be TE's w/ the ZR6's. I was afraid the ask how much $$$. Great day and totally stoked :mrgreen: !!! May be time to trade in SAN. Mike

    Central Valley is only getting 7 as well. I didn't hear how many Larson will
    get. However, these are 3 of the Largest 5 Nautique dealers in the US, so
    one can imagine supplies will be very limited at some dealers.
