It is surprising to me with this forum being owned by Skiers Choice that they don’t have a factory rep continuously monitor and commenting on this site more often. It’s like they are completely absent...

Instead let dealers and folks in here make claims (some factual, some maybe not)...

My company doesn’t own a forum, but many of us monitor FB groups and other places and always comment when needed..

The claims being made in here should be addressed immediately by Skiers Choice...

if you don't think drew and rick watch this you are sadly mistaken. they only chime in when they need to. the issues above are best handled by the dealer communicating not posting on a public forum if you ask me. should be a one on one with the buyer.

We had a good chuckle at my dealer last Friday when I was placing my deposit about this....

The time between me excitedly sharing Supra '21 photos before they were meant to be seen and my phone blowing up to yank them down was nothing short of astonishing.

They are always watching.

Mea Culpa...please make my '22. I promise not to be a leak

I work in large scale manufacturing and the issues with procurement are very real! Every company out there is probably doing the best they can with what they have and are trying to be as light in their feet as possible. Having to find new sources while everyone else is also trying to find new sources is very difficult to say the least. Lead times for everything are being pushed further and further back. It is tough in the manufacturing industry right now. Sales and demand is there but sourcing domestic and abroad are tough. Everyone has a backlog. I know this is frustrating for consumers and I’m not trying to speak for SC but understand manufacturers are probably doing all sorts of things behind the scenes just to try and produce as best they can. I hope this ripple in the industry evens out by the end of the year or it’s going to get scary for real!

As for asking for additional swag bags or goodies for the inconvenience....well I personally wouldn’t be doing it. YMMV. I’d just be thankful I even got the boat I ordered. Is it frustrating and makes it really hard to wait? Absolutely and I can certainly understand!!! But I think asking for a comp is a bit much given it’s not their fault at all the world turned on its axis. It’s not like they intentionally set out to cause delays. I guess I’m a little biased as I have worked in manufacturing going on nearly 2 decades so I can understand both sides and issues. It sucks and there is no way to dispute that. I dare say, I’d gladly take 2020 all over again than this crap we are going through in 2021... and that’s saying something cause we all know how 2020 sucked lol

Just got off the phone with my dealer, my boat is leaving Friday, and it apparently will be one of the last. There is a huge shortage of fibreglass resin and they’ve cancelled almost all June and July builds. My dealer is one of the largest skiers choice dealers and has to call dozens upon dozens of customers to tell them they’re not getting a boat until at least fall.

Hope you’re wrong too, we have a June build and don’t have a spray date yet.

With issues as serious at cancelling customer orders I think they can address it on a public forum they own and operate with a simple factual statement..It very clear dealers are giving different messages also and others are not being communicated to at all.

I’ve worked for companies with similar products (such as Yamaha) and I and others provided feedback in public forums on serious issues (like this)..

Drew has addressed it many times on the Facebook page. And nobody is getting canceled from what I've seen, some might be getting pushed back, but that's life right now. Be flexible.

I’m the one that posted previously about putting a non refundable deposit down in feb for a May spray and June delivery. I don’t mind being pushed back due to the current circumstances however, I’m also the one that was told any boat delivered after June would be at 2022 pricing, which sounded insane to me. My reputable dealer said that was a SC policy so I just took it at face value. I would like to know if that is truly the manufactures policy. Does SC have a June fiscal year end??? Crazy...

Most all the manufacturers release the next model year boats in June or July, August at latest.
