      I have been getting emails from my Tommy's dealer about their "Spring showcase" this weekend.  I received a text yesterday and looks like they are continuing with business as usual, or at least perceiving to be as normal.  Here is the text I received last night.

      Greetings from Tommy's Grand Rapids! Come join us this Saturday the 27th 10am-2pm for drinks, snacks and games. We'll have amazing discounts on all models of boats in stock & pro shop gear will be up to 50% off (see our Facebook page for more details). We'll be giving tours of our brand new massive indoor storage facility, if you take the 3 mile ride over there with us we'll have an additional coupon you can use back at the pro shop for even bigger savings! See you Saturday! Txt STOP to unsub.

      Sounds like a good old fashioned fire sale to me!  Move as much inventory as possible because it is no longer yours to move.  I currently have my boat scheduled to visit Tommys Walloon for service and I am pretty nervous about leaving it there!  If they were to close up shop, getting my boat could be difficult if it was even still there!  I'm not sure what I will be doing.

      Bought this boat with SumoSac 650s in the locker.  Removed them for the season and found a tank leak, which resulted in a some factory warranty work to replace all the hard tanks.

      While the boat was away in TN, and at the dealer in SC and in storage, I picked up Wakemakers bags.  Went to install today and found the fill fittings have a 90 degree bend on them and exit to the SIDES of the boat.  There is not spinning, or adjusting to be done.  They are firmly in place, but now don't line up with the fill fitting on the bag.  

      I've got an email into Wakemakers to double check my order, make sure I got the right product, but can anyone confirm my PNP valve setup as correct or altered?  Photo is port side PNP fitting underneath rear bench seat, taken from the back seat looking down.  Engine on left, port side of boat on right, transom at top of photo and forward of storage locker at the bottom.

    • Boat storage is huge cashflow. Hundreds if not thousands of boats for a few hundred dollars a month. Tommys has also established such a large cliental they can continue to service and store customers boats without selling a new  malibu and still be successful. 

    • Hi Everyone - new to the wakeboat world and wanted to get into it while my kids are still around. Found a 2013 Wakesetter 21 VLX with about 400 hours on it. Looks like it's barely been used, interior and exterior wise and was professionally winterized and summerized? by the local marina every year - didn't even hit the lake last year.  I read about the screens and the surf gate actuators on a different post as well as a different propeller, but is this a good entry level boat? It's in that $60k price range.  

       

      Anything else you guys can tell me about this year and model is all new learning for me!

      I don't want to read between any lines, but this sounds optimistic at least. Versus news that could be worse.
