New "Big" and what's with all the rain??




Hello again :) I wanted to put up pictures of the new 2010 Dashboards for the XSeries and XStar. This new screen/system called "The BIG" will show all operations of the current VDIG at once along with the digital depthfinder (lake view) and ballast on the main screen now. We were just given a peak at them on-line and these are the 2 screen captures I took. Other capacities will include GPS/Chartplotter w/regional chips, tower mounted camera that will follow the rider on the tower swivel tow point, DVR to record sessions and downloadable rider settings that will save into a thumb drive to transfer from boat to boat. From what we have heard these settings will be automated and set the boat up for each rider with speed, ballast etc. All XSeries boats will also see new steering wheels, gauges and bezels. The toggle switches are now protected with billet and the main control for "The Big" is located to the right of the screen on the dash to not interfere with your visibility while driving. Have a great day, thanks for checking in :)

Jay's 1st blog


Just testing this, there are a lot of things happening, so I thought I'd make easy for everyone to check-in here instead of me blasting you emails all the time!
I figure this will be a great opportunity to share all of the things that make up the New England WaterSports experience. Tournament postings, innovations, gatherings, when/where we will be riding, product introductions, thoughts and most importantly pictures and stories from you, our customer. Without you, none of this would be possible.
This year has definitely had it's ups and downs, but we just finished our best month ever for MasterCraft sales. We only have 2 2009's left, a CSX 220 Saltwater Series and a 2009 X7 and just like that we are rolling into the 2010 model year next month.
MasterCraft has brought some new technology to the table for 2010, and it is incredible. I'll put up the new dashboard for the XStar and all X-Series boats and which features the aptly named "BIG"!
