Paragon Competition

[RDT-G23]

Im sure they are thinking upgrade the $100-$150 K wakeboat owner to become the $250 wakeboat owner would be their main target audiance for the Paragon

.
I completely agree. Every individual that ordered one from my dealer was a current G owner. Naturally, the dealer contacted those of us known to be zealots-first.

On a somewhat related note, I suspect 80%+ of Nautique owners do not even know about the Paragon introduction yet...

or are potential customers......

The promo boat was in Dallas a couple weeks ago for a few days. By the time I rode on it they had already sold 7 or so in a couple days. One of the other current owners on board with me was going back to the shop to supposedly order one too. To be honest … I REALLY want one after seeing in person and still find myself drooling over it, but it's definitely out of my means. I'll be perfectly happy sticking with the "budget G23". I think they're going to sell far more than people think. It really is impressive in person.

There is so much money out there Nautique will sell as many as they can build.

Not sure if you've noticed or not....but I'm sure most have...the economy and market since 2009 has been "Off the chain" for camper, truck and boat purchases. New trucks, campers, and 150K wakeboats EVERYWHERE !!!!

There is no doubt in my mind they will sell as many as they can make. Lots of money out there, especially as long as the economy continues as is...although for those that can truly afford the Paragon, a slowdown in the economy likely won’t matter much (with regards to buying a paragon)

Are you sure of that?

According to this article below, a darkening future might the reason for a recession in the multi millions yacht sales. So while the economy is not in recession yet, some segments are already taking a hit.

I do not know how the Paragon segment compares to the multi millions yachts segment. So it might not be the case for the Paragon yet, but all the boating industry and every segment in it took a hit during the 2008 "recession". I do not see why it should not be the case for Paragon if a recession comes.
