Ordered my first Nautique - 2022 S21

[Sparke15]

I’ve just ordered my first Nautique (2nd ever boat!) and the family are super excited. 2022 S21. The build slot is Jan-March and I’m hoping the Tungsten Grey supply issues are resolved so I don’t have to rethink the colour scheme. Interested in any thoughts!

Nice boat! I hope you're right about the Tungsten. From what I have heard, the delays could continue for quite some time.

I believe you're shooting yourself in the foot ordering Tungsten... Could push your build WAY back if it happens at all. Too many people have complained about their boat orders being delayed because of that color. If I were you I'd go ahead and start making a second color choice so it's fresh on your mind come March!

[SilentSeven]

Weird. What makes a color so special that it creates delays...?

If you’re going tungsten I would mix in some grey true weave.

I did consider the true weave but was concerned it wouldn’t be as durable as vinyl. Does anyone have any experience of it?

I only just got my 2021 so I can’t speak to the durability, but it looks and feels awesome.

That does look awesome. Nice boat, congratulations!

Thought about TrueWeave on my 2021, but went with the white softmax instead mainly due to the locations where it is placed on the P23. I did like it but it did look more difficult to keep clean and the first time a dirt dauber built a mud nest (boat stays on lift in summer, with cover on) on the softmax I knew it was the right decision as the mud would have been harder to get out of the weave.

I ordered a GS22 with Tungsten as one of the colors for the interior but the dealer talked me out of it due to delays. Not a big deal for me as there are other colors that work. Our boat expected delivery is December. Good luck, yours looks great!

Currently awaiting a 2022 G23 and this will be my third G. Many of my fellow friends have G's with different configurations, some of which have only one pair of JL 8.8s on the tower. I am a little biased as I love the music blasting while out on the water, but when I am with my friends the single pair 8.8s severely limit the potential of the audio system ad can barely hear when behind the boat. Might want to upgrade to dual pair tower speakers.

Are there any other views on this? I’m toying with it but it’s not an insignificant cost!

Two on each side look better and balance out the tower better....as far as sound....i'm guessing it not TOO much different.....but better with 4 on the tower.

My vote is 4

I’ve added the 2nd pair of tower speakers and also changed my colour scheme as Tungsten is still unavailable. Here is the final ordered build.
