 I'm going to lose my mind
I put my order in on a 1848 gatortail boat and 37efi on March 2. I've already lost my mind. I almost wish I would have taken the boat they had in stock that didn't have the huntdeck just so I didn't have to wait.

 Re: I'm going to lose my mind
How long is the expected wait? I had to wait 5-6 weeks for my last boat. But I had my old one to play with yet!

 Re: I'm going to lose my mind
I was told about 2 months by my dealer. He hasn't gotten back to me with gt's "official" estimated date yet.

 Re: I'm going to lose my mind
I had to wait a couple months but it was fishing season and I had another boat to fish out of. The waiting still sucked though. you will be happy you waited for the one you want

 Re: I'm going to lose my mind
I'm in the same boat, but mine is a 2054 PD and I ordered March 9th...I was told I should have it within 3 weeks. I got lucky and jumped in a spot where the build of a stock 2054 was fixing to be built anyway, so he have me that spot...a few more weeks to go!

Hoyt delegated production delivery priorities to me. I'll make a phone call and see what I can do.

 Re: I'm going to lose my mind
I bet if Gatortail would hire 'ol Golden arm' they could shorten the wait for you guys.

 Re: I'm going to lose my mind
Lol. The worst thing is I think they're waiting on two other rigs and some motors to be ready before they ship it all.

 Re: I'm going to lose my mind
I know I won't regret it. It just sucks selling a boat and not having the new one yet!

 Re: I'm going to lose my mind
Well, my boat is supposed to be leaving gatortail and headed north a week from today! I'm tired of this patience shit! I've been without a boat since the ice came off the lakes and it's driving me nuts

 Re: I'm going to lose my mind
I was at the Gatortail shop a couple weeks ago and by the looks of things business is very good. They had many boats ready to ship out and a bunch under production.... and a BUNCH of crated motors.
