New Rage, new to Nordic!
 
I am headed to Utah to pick up my new Rage I bought from Nordic and Ed Kennley this weekend. Traded in the Baja 212 Islander. I hope I like the ride. I don't see many in the Pacific NW. Hope to see some other Nordic owners.

Jay Gadsby 04-25-2012 12:20 AM

There are a few up in WA, that is where mine came from actually. You will enjoy the Rage I am sure. Post pics up when you get her!

Couginitnordic 04-25-2012 12:36 AM

I live on Lake Stevens,WA. We no longer have a Nordic dealer in the area so Utah was the closest. I have not seen many posts on the newer Rage post 2009 wood free. Mine has a single center gas tank, snap in carpet, custom seats, and other changes. Since I have not seen it in person yet I am sure I will find other little changes.

Jay Gadsby 04-25-2012 02:56 AM

Awesome man! Sounds like you got yourself a nice rig. Belly tank will benice to keep the center of gravity low for sure :) Cant wait to see her!

Congratulations and welcome aboard. Sounds like a very nice boat.
I am sure you will enjoy it for a long time.
Regards,
Steve

Welcome! I think I saw your rage at the Utah boat show and in the local classifieds here. It's a very nice looking rage. Get her home safe and post some pics when you get a chance.

Couginitnordic 04-25-2012 05:01 PM

Ready to leave Nordic on way to Utah. Where do you keep your boat Ned? I used to moore my Baja in Renton before I moved to Lake Stevens. Now I mostly just keep it in my backyard on my lift. I will be taking it out to break in the motor on Lake Washington for sure as soon as the weather clears.https://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.ph...type=1&theater

I can't seem to figure out how to post pictures. The boat I bought was the Red and Grey 2010 stamped hull new 0 hours but with a 496 MAG HO so they could not restamp the year as it would have needed to have the new motors but since it was powered I got a good deal.

Couginitnordic 04-25-2012 05:05 PM

Chris is a great guy. He is the only guy that has worked on my Baja and now will be servicing my Nordic.

Ooooo now that's super pretty. Love that graphic and color scheme.

nedpoole 04-25-2012 05:36 PM

wow, looks great!!!

Eroc5150 04-25-2012 05:42 PM

Wow! That's not the rage I was thinking of. Yours is way sexier!
Congratulations

CB-BLR 04-25-2012 11:18 PM

Great looking boat!

Welcome to the Nordic family.

Chris is a great guy...so is John at Eastside Offshore in Kirkland

Couginitnordic 04-26-2012 12:06 AM

Thanks everyone! I just have to survive the trip to Utah and back towing both directions. I have also met John at Eastside...seems to be a good guy as well.

I saw that Rage a couple times over the past few months, and spoke to Brett about it also. I am hear in SLC if you have any issues or need anything at all give me a call 801-641-6715.

Jay Gadsby 04-26-2012 11:22 AM

That is sexy! I like the fact the underside is done to match as well, gives it that certain something something :)

Awesome new Rage!

I don't think you hate to say it. I have read these comments before, what exactly is the issue? I have found if you put the boat on the phone it helps.

Couginitnordic 04-26-2012 06:22 PM

Thanks JD! I appreciate the offer although I hope I don't have any troubles. Nordic Tom, that is cool! I would like to see some pictures. My hull is in red it is hard to see from the shadow. I hope I don't regret the red hull later. What kind of service issues have you had? I have been dealing with Brett Kenley at Ed Kenley Ford. He is the man for service! I think I will always go through a dealer and not direct since Brett makes the experience easy.

I worked with Brett also, he has taken very good care of me. And so has everyone at Nordic. I can't say enough good things about the entire process...

blownhammer2000 04-26-2012 08:02 PM

Nordic Tom 04-26-2012 09:20 PM
