Can they get yamahas?
Dealer told me yesterday that they are being told 8-10 months.
Yes, into 2023 now.
I was also told by a local dealer 8 months on new orders.
There is a huge backlog with most new boat orders now sold before they ever hit the dealers lot make it tough to catch up. The retail demand is still through the roof, with supply reduced complied with labor shortages, and all kinds of things slowing down the process. Its not just Skeeter, you can insert those holdups to most any brand available right now.

2021 Yamaha SHO 225 VF225LA
They are Texans in Texas..... they are used to being hot. Skeeters facility is very similar to the multiple other boat building facilities I have toured. Skeeters is clean, and well organized to maximize flow through to the next stage of completion. I have been in some that are like WTF were they thinking.
The wait time is still 16 weeks, +/- a week. When a dealer is telling you they are into 2023, that is the model year, not Jan 1st. I did confirm this with the dealership I work with who has been ordering them weekly.
Just received word that my 2023 ZXR should be arriving within the next few weeks! Looking forward to picking it up.
If you you don’t mind me asking how long ago did you order? Thanks
I was lucky and it was a dealer order from 22 that wrapped around. I “ordered” it in march.
I ran into one of the salesmen at a local dealership, they are being told to prepare for a 10% increase on the 2023 models. He said mine would be worth more than what I paid for it 18 months ago.
No, I am NOT selling... Ha!
2021 Skeeter ZXR-21 with 250 Yamaha SHO, Pro II Power Poles, Atlas Hydro Jack Plate
Glad I ordered mine last April and received end of July. It came in as a 21 and paid 59k for it. If the 10% is true that would put a zxr20 to 70k before any extras and dealer prep and taxes.
My 2023 will be delivered in a week. Price only went up $1800. Not sure how much of that was due to it being a 22 order that was pushed to 23.
The new NAP pricing on a 2023 ZXR 20 with standard equipment is $74,200
