Just curios as to how long from placing the order for a heavily optioned Axis can w expect delivery? Any experience? Will place the order within the next month. Thx!

There are too many variables to give you a simple answer. Production time depends on the specific dealer, if they have a production slot, the time of year, the options you are wanting, where you are located, etc.

I do agree with ridininmd, you need to contact the dealer you will be ordering through. Only they can tell you when they can get you a boat.

I would take a guess at 8-12 weeks, there are many boat shows taking place right now and dealers submitting orders. I don't have an axis, but i placed an order last year for my Glastron Feb 4th, and took delivery June 1st. I was originally told 8-10 weeks and took slightly longer. If you wanted it for memorial day weekend... I'd get the ball rolling ASAP.

i know this doesnt help you but i just custom ordered a moomba LSV, and they told me 6-8 weeks. i ordered it less than two weeks ago, and today i got pics and its in final riging. just awaiting tower and loose cushions. motor, stereo, electronics, seat backs etc are already done. expected delivery is 4 weeks after i ordered it. Shocked

it took them 5 days from spray and layup to that point got pics today Shocked

moomba LSV that is awesome! I'd love to see any "in production" pics if you have them. Would be neat to see the process...

sprfrkr, it really varies. My wait was around 8 weeks when it was built last year. It all depends on how busy the factory is at that time. The actual build time seemed to be just over a week.

Sprfkr, We ordered ours around the end of November, and start build time was beginning of Feb. We got caught in the dealers ordering for boat shows slots. They were pushing about 6-8 a week out and workers were working 5 days a week vs normal 4. If you ordered now, Im guessing as Joe said, 6-8 weeks. Build time has gone down to 4 days now I believe including water testing. Ours started build Feb 8 and was finished by the 12. I picked it up on Feb 19. I'll try to get an estimation for how long out build time is right now for ya

sprfkr,
Build time for a new Axis depends from dealer to dealer and if they have slots and where they fit into the orders. More of a dealer to dealer type question. Lead time is out until April-ish. Thats pretty general. Do you have a local dealer? If not, where are you located? That would help determine time frames. As far as build pics for Axis, here are a couple, http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=376468&id=502405113&l=6a5ea25e61
