Youll have the boat in the water before you see pics on facebook. Pictures arent usually posted until a few weeks after completion

Your dealer will be able to get that info, though just remember it takes about 10 days from start to finish on your boat, so if its only been 2 weeks since you placed the order you have about another 2.5-3 weeks before its even in the mold. Thats if and only if they are at the 6 week mark for order to delivery point, sometimes its 8-10 weeks but this time of year your probably good with that 6-7 week timeframe + delivery schedule. Patience my friend…patience.

Yeh patience is not one of my strong suits! If its only 6-8 weeks that would be great. I am bracing myself for 8-10. I will contact my dealer and get updates as I can. Got our first tournament this Saturday and another in 2 weeks. Will just have to suffer and fish out of my partners Bug boat.2017 Eyra / 250 Merc Pro XS

It depends on the model mix and the model ordered as some models are more in demand. Presently it is just at the 10 week mark or longer overall for most boats now. They did increase production January 1st by a significant amount and have been extensively training staff for that move. Things are very busy at BCB and YCB now. BCB

Took close to 10 weeks from order to delievery on my Jag this Fall. Distract yourself, look at youtube videos etc. The time it takes is well worth the finished product.

BCB – it is an Eyra if that makes a difference. Zoomworms, it will be worth the wait for sure. I just might get a little grumpy as it gets near the end. As it stands now I just hope to get it in, rigged, and broke in before the OI. Looking forward to showing it off on a Guntersville.2017 Eyra / 250 Merc Pro XS
