Anyone have pics of the Axis T22?

I think it looks great. I just cant get past the tower...

[shawndoggy]

Does nobody think the lines of the bow are a little tugboat-ish? Can someone with a vlx post a comparison pic? Lol I own the most tugboatish boat on the market I think so I'm not complaining but that bow has been cited as a criticism.

Looks like lots of freeboard.

Is a t23 or 24 in the works.....?

This boat looks great! I like that they are going to a higher freeboard, looks much higher than my VLX.

I still find it hard to call it a "value" brand. This boat is a close comparison to everything else on the market like Centurion, Supra, etc... Minus the the little LCD screen

i agree AXIS needs more credit !! has a sick wake, great handling, great surf wake, looks amazing ! just needs more details to interior .

I dont really see any difference in freeboard between the VLX and T22? I do like how they integrated the docking lights on the T22, looks great.

That is a good question, what price for the T22 compared to a VLX? I know the new 2014 VLXs loaded up are in the low to mid 80's depending on time of year, I would think this boat would be low $60's? My dealer said the VLX had the biggest price jump this year out of all the 2014 models.

Well they said "under $60k" but I bet after tax you are at $60k, add a tricked out trailer, gel, PNP, wetsounds stereo, etc you are close to or over $70k. Wonder if they will have a vandal edition?

[wakesetter8796]

Apparantly on FB they said "traditional bow with surfgate under $60k"

anyone else besides me wonder why the big price jump on a boat that went virtually unchanged from last year??!!

Maybe it was the the windshield and surfgate beeper they installed? It seems like these boat prices are getting out of control, but they keep selling them, and with 15 and 20 year loans pretty much anyone with a decent job can afford one.

I am guessing it is the trend of boat prices going up and to bring the gap between the VLX and the new LSV closer to hopefully be able to talk more people into upgrading to the LSV. What do I know though.

[Fman]

I wonder if the Vride is going to be discontinued? Seems like the T22 would be a much better option vs. 21 vride, 102" beam and 22' long for the same price or maybe even less????

Last time I was at a Malibu dealer they were pushing a new VLX at me... 15K down and $633 a month for 15 years.

Maybe getting us used to the reality of a big jump, next year they will likely change hulls, even bigger jump! lol

That's crazy... They would likely just use your current boat as the down payment. Then you have to pay for the VLX for 15 years.... Prices please come down haha.

That's sounds a little off to me. Sounds like the interest rate was little high or the boat price was. You need a REAL decent job!

[wakesetter8796]

The 2013 at that dealer says $87k on boattrader. Way high for a 13 leftover.

[Bobby Light]

When this T22 grows to 23-24' I'm in, mcluvin it

Me too. I love my 23LSV and won't go smaller. A T24 would be AWESOME!!

[jcon44]

this thing is nice, but I cant get past the half windshield. waiting out a rainstorm saturday when it was in the 60's reminded me how nice a wrap around windshield is.
