My first boat was a 21ft searay. At 17 years old I had some of the best summers with friends on that thing. It never let us down. All I ever did to that thing was plugs impeller and oil. 600 trouble free hours. I don’t forget where I came from lol. The boat doesn’t define the person we are still just people no matter what our financial situation may be. No better than anyone or less than anyone. Before our magic I looked at a few of the shockwave decks online. They’re solid.

I have a 21 Foot Crownline now and I have less stress and less OCD in this thing then I have in any boat I have owned last 25 years.
Same! We have a yamaha AR190 that gets more use than the pontoon now. The less complicated program is so much more relaxing.

I actually had to ask my wife where the Yamaha was last weekend, I couldn't remember if we left it in needles storage or havasu.

Ive seen the 25 in the shop, the gel is amazing. REALLLLY good looking boat. My claim to boating fame is that I convinced Bob (didnt take much convincing, he knew it needed to be done) to change the whole front of the boat back in 2014. Me and my buddy walked in and talked with him for a few hours and were both ready to pull the trigger and told him if he opened the front up, got rid of the big shovel nose and HUGE entry area, made the deck seating longer we would both give him $10k deposits... He didnt take the money, he told us he wanted us to be happy first with the new layout... THEN he wanted the deposits, hahaha. My buddies boat was hull #1 and mine is #2 popped out of the redesign. I dont think that mold has stayed dry for longer than a week since he made the change. Ive had many chances to sell mine and turn a buck, but I love the boat and to get back into one would cost me close to double what I paid.

How do people afford these prices of boats in today’s times

To make you even more upset, I paid 69k for my 22 brand new from shockwave with the 350 mag and some good upgrades in 2018. It was listed and sold (not by me) for just under a 100k a year and a half ago.

Things sure have changed 😂

I still miss the ‘22, such a good running boat!

They have listed "stock" boats before as ready for you to pick your power option, but the price advertised is with base power. At the listed price, most likely the 8.2

6.2 per Greg. 11k more for the 430hp 8.2. He said not to bother with the 380hp 8.2 as it wasn't really a gain over the 6.2. Probably due to weight and not much more power.

Dude those prices are cheap!!

Shockwave was selling brand new MCOB Tremor's for 59k in 2009. Included tandem axle trailer, 496 Mag, Bravo 1, and basic stereo.
That's a long time ago, but $131K+ for a base model Tremor? Maybe it's a deal compared to some other west coast mfg's, but not sure if its a much of a deal in general lol. I understand the market dictates the prices, so if that's what people are paying to get into the 25' V-bottom game.....I guess it is what it is!

Not base model. Has several upgrades. But yes, prices have gone up drastically since 2009.

I also remember looking at them back in 09. I‘m guessing a 15 yr loan payment would be a grand or more. I can’t see paying that much for a boat payment. I guess it might just be me

while they may be expensive they will deliver a boat in a timely and professional manner or you could make a deal with rusty at Ultra I will bet the price Starts off better but over the test of time you will regret the decision

Have you looked at production boat prices? For shits and giggles a 24 foot Crownline starts at $151,400 with an 8.2 430 HP. According to their website and I didn’t add any options. 😳 sticker, shock and inflation are real.🤣

Eh it’s different. The 22 is just zippy and fun. It was best suited for the river north of the mouth.

Certainly not a summer weekend in Havasu kind of boat like the FunDeck is though!

I know right! My buddy picked up a used Yamaha 242 with very low hours a couple of years back for $52k and we thought it was a fair deal since they are selling for $80k.
