I'll keep it short and sweet, but the subject says it all. This is my upgrade.

My first boat was a barely broken-in 2010 Sea Ray 195 Sport. Little did I know that when I purchased this boat, it would open my eyes to the world of wake sports, boating, life on the lake, and everything else that goes along with it. I can't get enough of it now, and have successfully become addicted.

This is where Axis comes in, and thanks to the great people at my local dealer (Copher's Boat Center in Ft. Smith), my dream boat is being built as we speak. I'm anxiously waiting for warmer weather and my new 2013 A20, white with vapor blue accents.

Equipped w/:
Plug N Play (750 sacs in the rear)
Tatami Mat
Cinco Prop
Bimini Top
Stereo Pack 3
Fixed Racks
Auto-Set Wedge
Deck Trac
V2 Tower Upgrade
PTM Tower Mirror Upgrade
Flip Up Driver's Bolster
Pull-up Cleats
Depth Finder
Underwater Lighting
Under seat Lighting
Battery Switch
Single Axle Trailer w/ Spare

As soon as I get to see it in person for the first time, pics will definitely follow...

Congrats on the new boat!!! I've never looked back after switching from an I/O. Did you go with the black tower or white?

^thanks! I ended up going with the black tower. I think it looks perfect with the black accents on the side of the boat. I have seen the same color scheme with the white tower though and looks just as sick. I just prefer black and if I recall the white one actually costs more.

JayMan, Congrats on the new boat. You will love it. I love the white with the vapor blue. You are correct regarding the white tower, it is an upgrade, and does cost a few hundred more. I have the white tower on my white and vapor blue A22. It looks sick but is a pain to keep clean. When towing the bugs just stick to it and I always have to wipe the tower down. Again, congrats and post some pics when you pick it up.

You are going to love your new boat, I had a sea ray 185 sport before my a22 and it has been a big change me and my family we love our axis. It has turned my wife into a surfer this year instead of her old sport of Sun Tanning, never thought she would be into boarding and surfing this much. I love it

Thanks TwistedTad. Your boat was actually the one I was referring to in the above post. It definitely looks sick with the white tower, though I can imagine it being a task to keep clean. Especially if you tow it each trip to the lake like I do. Still looks great though.

And Gibbs, that's awesome that the wife is becoming addicted to the sports. Luckily, mine had already boarded and surfed before I did, so it's always easy getting her out on the water. Although she still participates in the sport of Sun Tanning whenever she can.. I have a feeling that the new and improved wake will give her a scare at first. I can't wait!

Great looking boat! We just did this same thing. Moving out of an 08 Four Winns h183 and into a charcoal w/vapor blue accents a20. Taking delivery in the spring. One question. Have you put the tower down with the rev410s on there? How hard is it with all the weight?
