Those of you that have ordered new, how much communication was there during your build process? It's been 1 week since I signed the papers and am wondering will nitro be contacting me at all regarding status updates or will I just be waiting the seven weeks or so to hear from the dealership? Thanks again

Chris

I don't know if there is any way to track progress on your boat during the building process, I've never asked I guess, but I don't recall any communication at all until the Hull ID is sent and things are finalized with the bank, which is approximately 2 weeks from the boat being completed. I didn't get a call from the dealer though, just the bank letting me know.

Today I found out some disheartening news. My dealer called me and said that he spoke with a Nitro rep and she informed him that because my boat is a custom order that I am not eligible for the $1000 bass pro gift card nor the Nitro apparel $200 credit.

My question Bill is was your boat a stock boat already available on a lot? My dealer has no nitros in stock so I was forced to order mine. Not to mention I have added over $10000 worth of extras to it and because of that I don't qualify for the gift card. Has anyone on here ordered a boat and still received the gift card?

This stinks!

Still awaiting the arrival of the New Z-18, but I found some old photos of the NX750 and of course I

feel compelled to share. I can't wait to be back on the water.

Thanks for sharing Chris - Nice FISH by the way! My new boat arrived at the dealer and is awaiting rigging, etc. Should be able to pick it up sometime late next week, but we'll see how that shakes out. Can't go fishing around here yet anyways... another 12" of snow last night

Since we're sharing, here is my old one.

I have a Z7 and I have a powerpole as well on it. Powerpole sells an adapter plate for your boat. go to Powerpole .com and look up your boat and get a part number. Bass pro shoud be able to order in the plate.

Gentlemen it's been a long time coming but the boat is finally here. Unfortunately we're still waiting on backordered power poles but I was able to snag a few photos today at the dealership.
