2021 G23 Draft Issues

[Ddeets]

I have a 2019 G23, really close to ordering a new 2021, my concern is that the new 2021 G23 drafts 31” of water, my 2019 drafts 25” of water, if the increase in draft is because of a new rudder or the prop is situated lower on the new G I will not have any problems as these items never cross my lift crossbeam, if the additional 6” is somewhere up front on the boat though I could have a problem. Does anyone know how I can check or find out?.

Does anyone know how I can check or find out?.

I have been wondering about this issue, as well. I would like to know if it is hull design and/or running gear change, or if they are now listing draft based on full ballast due to liability issues.

The logical answer to ask your dealer

[Ddeets]

I did ask the Dealer, he did not know but is inquiring, I thought the board might be faster

That makes complete sense

I'm also curious about that. I just put the money down on a 2021 G23 and I'm figuring I need to add dock sections to accommodate the additional draft.

Anyone get any information on this?

[Ddeets]

I had both my dealer principals promise to get me the information and all I got from either of them is crickets

How about you greggmck? Could you comment on this?

I'm also interested in the answer to this question. Ice is out on my lake and I'm wondering how much more dock I need to put in this year to get the depth I need.

Thanks for the question, I’ve wondered same. For you with new 2021 orders how late are you comfortable with a 2021 order before the 2022 models come out? I have a June build slot but am conceited about getting my boat late I season.

This was sent to me directly from Nautique, it does not exactly answer the question but is somewhat helpful.

Did they happen to provide the table the drawing reference that you could share?

[Ddeets]

No this is all they provided.

I am starting to think the answer to our question simply carries liability concerns with Nautique hence the silence.

I guess I will know my answer when I try to put my new G on the hoist in 36" of water.

I did order the boat and I did express my concerns with the dealer who said if the boat won't work in 36" of water he will take care of me which I am sure he will money wise but I will be hooped for the summer with no boat as he has sold my 2019.

Reality of todays market he could probably mark my 2021 up 20K and sell it immediately.

This drawing is a G21 fyi.
