The 14 price is same as 13 price according to the dealer sheets.

and LOVE the Rhino Lined towers!!! water spots on the regular black FC towers are terrible...nothing gets them off short of wax: not hotsauce or boat candy. Anybody got any methods to remove them? that Rhino lining looks sweet.

nyryan have you tried meguires hard water spot remover? it works great on my boat and we have about the same water? http://www.meguiars.com/en/marine/pr...-spot-remover/

Your last line is a marketing managers wet dream. I'm sure the design of the new 210 (no reversible seat, smaller interior, smaller lockers, etc.) was made so people would jump up to the G's. I for one would not go from our '12 210 to the new one. I'm not willing to give up those items. So we either keep what we got or step to the G. The people at CC aren't dumb.

That was my thought ... They are positioning the new one correctly and hopefully keeping my resale value high. The 210 for me was always a stepping stone to a G in the future. I just wish they didn't make it look so much like other boats :/ It feels like they are following on this as opposed to leading the industry as we have grown accustom to.

Nope, never tried it... just ordered a bottle of it though...

Seriously, water spots are unbelievable this year... both on the gelcoat and on the windows. I have tried everything. HotSauce and Boat Candy Speed Gloss did not work.

I will report back on the Meguires!

[acs220]

The Meguires will work. Just follow instructions and you will be good.

I use a micro fiber to wipe it down. I also use quick clean afterwards just for the extra bling factor!!

Maybe in their eyes they are moving the 210 backward to get it more entry level, cuz the G's are still better than any other flagship boat.

Just like everyone has their own opinions and needs. The 210 is the right size boat for the lake that we use. It's small and private with ski island turnarounds. Looks like we will be keeping our '12 for a long time. Haha.

Love the look. The boat all in all looks SICK/TOUGH. However, Huge mis-step with removing the reversable middle seat and the step down observer seat.
No way am I updating my 210 to the new 210 now.
Gotta go straight to the G at this point.


LETS SEE THAT WAKE!

The only two things I love are the walk through and moving the air vents to the transom. I'll hold on to my 230, it only has 88 hours anyway.

[obd666]

that stripe is gonna have to grow on me, will possibly be better with other color combos. is definitely a step back from the griffin graphics, much more understated ... hate to see the 210 relegated to a supporting role in the lineup, but was inevitable with the big G

[Sullivan]

I am digging both of them. I love the new graphics.

[pokesgrad02]

Water spots? Use lime away and follow with spray on wax.

[CradGen2]

I love the changes. The yellow, well it is growing on me. The vents moving to the rear is awesome. The whole new back is awesome. I do wish they had left the reversable seat. The have my guesses on why they removed this feature.

I love the G23 and maybe wish I had purchased one last year when I got the new 2012 210. Again I really like the G23, but after hearing you all talk about the size, wake, etc, I'm more happy with my 210 then ever. The main sticking point would be I would need to upgrade the Armada that only has a 9100 tow rating. I don't think it would pull a G23 like I would like it to and feel safe doing. I don't use my 210 to wakeboard, it is mainly a cruising/beverage/little bit of surfing machine. I'm a footer and skier, so the 196 is for skiing and I will get another footing boat when I move again.

That said, The front of the G23 look does not appeal to me. If I needed a boat that size and would be using it to its fullest, I wouldn't let the front bother me. I'm worried the G21 when it does arrive will look like the MC X1 which I always felt was a giant rectangle moving down the water.

I hope CC doesn't make the 210 a price point boat like the 211 a couple years ago then phased out. I don't think the 200V will do all that the 210 owners want it to. I have only driven (2) 226 2012 models. Interesting is all I will say. Wondering with the 226 will make the line up in 2014.

I love the 200 DD and will move to one when i get tired of the 2006 196, which I haven't gotten tired of yet. I fact we are only using the 196 this year and I love that boat more each time I ride in it. I put the 2012 210 with 7.2 hours on it a way weekend after labor day 2012, the good news is it still has the new boat smell and will when I get it out of storage in spring 2014.

210 is just ok. The 230 however, is SICK. The interior is so much nicer for this year. The back of the boat looks great. The only thing I don't like is the new graphic. By the way, is it just me or does the new 210 hull look like the old 230 hull without the chine in the middle? Boats look crazy nice overall but I'm not thrilled on the graphics and the seat layout of the 210.

It will be interesting to see what the wakes look like. I will bet the 230's is more rampy and less washy. And I bet the 210 just gets a little bigger.

[surroundsound64]

I'm willing to bet going to the walk through was due to the number of 226s they sold because it had a walk through.
