My S211 had an early to mid Feb Spray date. 70 hrs on it due to the wet spring we had in Portland, so a late start this year , but I have had no issues other than my water (lake) temp quit working on the touchscreen. No biggie since I'm not concerned about water temps right now, and that can get fixed this winter. The 6.0l engine is worth the small upcharge. We had as many as 7 adults and 2 kids in it with almost full ballast (upgraded ballast) and 500 lbs lead, steel or whatever is really in the bags and the boat gets to surf speed without any struggle. With 8 adults and 2 kids with everything empty getting to cruise speed was pretty impressive. I did have some of the screws on my swim platform rub rail come loose as some others have mentioned. I would advise people to check those periodically. Swim platforms are subject to a lot of vibration so that can happen. Gelcoat is perfect, and the interior is holding up very well. The vinyl has a few scuff marks that are there for good. Most people wouldn't see them, but I'm a little OCD so I notice everything. The ride quality of a Supreme is very impressive. I've been on very windy lakes and 20-23 mph is a non issue in the chop. My last boat would have been lucky get through the chop at 15 mph... We are very happy with our boat with no complaints.... I would recommend a Supreme to anyone in that price point...

Faria gauge? Call the company they may ship you a replacement for around $150 from what I've heard

I had a different experience. I have not had a single issue with my s238. I'm a new surfer and I'm riding a 4'8 doomswell neo. I have the WakeMakers upgrade and lead and my wave is really nice. I'm easily dropping the rope 5 seconds after getting up and riding until I screw around too much or try a 360. When a rider falls we have been just backing up and getting them the rope again. Much easier than a big U turn. Again though, I haven't had an issue yet. I have zero complaints. In the beginning I was bummed because I thought the boat had no push but the whole time it was my surfing ability. Took me 7 trips out to dial the wave in AND learn to drop the rope. To me, looking at other boats, the s238 is the best bang for the buck. Like X said, I think he was part of a bad batch, unfortunately. That doesn't make it ok by any means. Just some pooh luck. I ordered back in November and my boat was deliver in February. 2017.

Just hit 100 hours.
