I have pulled the trigger on a new boat. I am getting a 2007 Tige RZ2. After demos of Mastercraft and Malibu the new Tige is the way I am going. Here are some pics of the boat.

Beautiful boat. Did you have an opportunity to test drive it?. I am wondering about that new hull design. They say it is a much smoother ride. I have a 98 Tige and it still runs like a champ. Congrats.

I did drive it and it rides and handles great. It is on the 22 Ve wetting surface so the ride between the 22 Ve and the RZ2 are identical. It is the best riding wake boat in the chop that I have been in. It has more a traditional V hull with out a hook (Covex V Hull) so it is a non planing hull. The TAPS (trim plate) makes it a very tunable ride. I am very impressed with the boat and can't wait to get it.

No more a copy than any of the custom boat builders. Just about every deck looks the same out there right now, just a tweek here or there. I don't see everyone here on ***boat jumping on the Ripoff bandwagon. BTW- mastercraft was the first wake boarding boat to use a pickle fork and the response was very good. Why not include a good idea and expand upon it? This will happen with boats, cars, trucks, homes, etc.... A good idea is a good idea but you can't put a patent on an idea. Thank you MC for comig up with a great idea!

Congratulations on a beautiful boat. We have a 2005 malibu wakesetter which we love but I would have checked out the tige with this design had it been out. Bye the way cobalt had the picklefork design before mastercraft. Welcome to the dark side. We still have the 90 mph big v but use the wakeboard boat at least 5 times as much. 145 hrs in 16 months. Have fun...

Nice!
Too easy to say it's a Mastercraft rip off. All MC owners say boats are rip offs of their's :rolleyes:
When I bought my Malibu alot of people said it was a clone of the MC.
I say so what, it was no where near the price of a Mastercraft.
Besides the only thing that was actually the same was the windshield. :p
Isn't Mastercraft owned by Coleman? :crossx:

The Mastercrap has a brutal ride in compairison when we tested them all, and ya take a murderous beating on the resale.
Tige' resale is awsum, the driveline runs smoother too.

Please post a picture of your boat. I frequent BigRiver during the year and would like to know what to stay away from.
Thanks in advance!

That is a nice boat. We went the other way, sold our wakeboard boat to buy a speed boat. LOL
We had lots of fun with our WB boat, hope you do too.
Good luck.

With strong enough riggers attached to it, it gives you the ability to scoop up lake lice at a moments notice.

Here is what the boat will look like. The main difference will be the interior will be all white with Navy accents. No gray like in the picture. Also the gray accent on the top deck will be navy (the build a boat will not let you build it that way right now)
