Owner has upgraded the Ballast bags to super sacks in the aft on both sides of the engine as well in the center storage compartment to maximize the wake for this great Wakeboard and Watersport boat. Comes with the Pleasure Craft Marine Series PCM 343 (343hp) Engine, with 390 hours. Cleanest 2013 Tige at LOTO. Asking $74995.00 OBO, NO Trailer but can assist in finding one if needed.

The biggest boat in Tigé Boat lineup, the RZ4 is 24 feet of big-wake performance and stylish comfort for your entire crew. The RZ4’s massive lounge can fit plenty of people and outfit them in total comfort. The lounge has huge, ergonomic bench seats that are perfect for watching Wake surfing, and a rear-facing seat behind the driver means that no space is wasted. The RZ4 has all the luxurious amenities you need for a massive party on the water with 17 people. Speakers are everywhere in the bow and lounge, and the Bluetooth-enabled head unit lets you quickly and easily pair up your phone through the Tigé Touch system, so you’re never without music. When it’s time to clean up at the end of the day, just unsnap the carpet and hose down the floor — it’s super low maintenance. Like every Tigé, the RZ4 doesn’t slack on styling. Complementary vinyl colors with fresh textures make the newly redesigned interior pop, and the new-for-2013 gunmetal matte finish on the boat’s steel components finishes off the look. You’d be hard-pressed to find a more stylish boat on the market today.

“The RZ4 was designed to do everything,” said Tigé's lead designer Daniel Gutierrez. “The wakes have been dialed in for the most elite wakeboarder or surfer, and the overall size and features of the RZ4 were created to accommodate an entire family and friends. The styling is progressive, with sharp edges and smooth flowing contours. There is no doubt, in an RZ4, you are in a new era of boat design.”

From the pickle-fork bow design to the crisp lines and surface breaks on the hull and deck, the RZ4 looks like no other boat out there. And that’s a good thing. But the novelty of good looks can fade quickly if the boat’s ergonomics are off, and the RZ4 is as usable as it is striking.

For example, the pickle-fork bow does something more than draw in the eye. It creates a roomier bow section when compared with a standard V-shape forward area. The forward-facing lounges are largely the same width from front to back and essentially parallel with the centerline of the boat, which translates to enhanced comfort for people sitting in, let’s face it, the harshest riding spot in any boat. The unique bow design also hides the stainless grab rails from a profile view, which contributes to a “cleaner” look.

At the transom, Tigé thought to include a number of really nice touches, which are part of why the boat is as usable as it is. For example, the swim platform is maintenance-free gel coated fiberglass with rubber matting for extra grip. Rubber matting also is placed in the center of the deck, so your butt doesn’t slide off wet gelcoat when you’re lashing on a wakeboard. To either side, Tigé built in two cupholders and two self-draining “trunks,” which can be used to stash wet gear or even as a cooler.

The sun pad features an upholstered side-opening locker to port and another locker beneath the gel coated nonskid walk-through on the starboard side. The walk-through makes it easy to get to and from the swim platform, and it also makes boarding easier from the starboard side. Gunwales to either side are accented with stainless mesh grilles that let hot air escape the engine compartment. Handsome and functional.

Inside the cockpit, the rear-facing observer seat flows aft to a rear bench, across and forward again, terminating in another rear-facing lounge seat just behind the driver. Inside the starboard backrest, Tigé cleverly included a trash bin and additional stowage. The result of its design is a spacious interior that is rated to hold up to 17 people—although it’s tough to say how comfortable it would be with that many people on board.

The standard engine is Pleasure Craft Marine’s 343-hp 5.7-liter V-8. There’s also an option for a she’s-real-fine 409-horsepower 6.0-liter V-8. There are stereo options to please even the most discriminating audiophiles and up to 900 pounds of ballast available.
