    My personal opinion, they aren't bad. I'm not a fan of graphics, typically. One of the reasons we didn't go with a Tige. Also, don't care for the Nautique graphics on the older boats. Reminds me of a guy with a big tribal tattoo and an Affliction shirt on. Getting back off of my opinion soap box...the new graphics aren't too bad.

        Not a big fan. File under boat tramp stamp with griffon graphics, tribal designs, etc. I prefer clean lines. Just one persons opinions.

        Looking forward to taking the Galaxy graphics off my boat when it comes out of storage.

                Have to agree...not a fan...and surprised Nautique went that route.

                  I am not a fan. I don't think the lines of the surf graphic compliment the overall lines of the boat. Also if your accent color and the aft strip of the hull are different colors the graphic washes out and looks chopped in half. I am usually OK with graphics (although they all eventually look dated) but the 2017 graphics missed the mark with me, especially the surf graphic.

                    Putting the surf graphic on a G, is like putting spinners on a Rolls Royce.

                        I think that to put the word 'SURF' on the side of your boat is not even a graphic. It is a word, not a design. Putting the word SURF on the side of the boat is definitely a sign of Nautique trying to gain market share with marketing instead of people learning about the product itself. Everyone knows it surfs, you can put that away now.

                        Unfortunately, that is coming from a guy who wishes skulls would come back in style, so I don't think they will listen to me.

                              Agreed again dislike Surf Graphics. Sort of a graphic afterthought
