Bluewave 2600 Pure Bay

Personaly I'd be steering away from Bluewave right now given they're out of business, last I'd heard, so you'd get no dealer/builder support if needed.

But if you can get a killer deal..........

I havent seen one in person, just pictures. Looks like a good layout. Not really concerned on the warranty.

This time of year is more and more a buyer's market as each warm day slips by toward fall.

My urge for a 32 contender is getting extremely difficult to fight off.

Fish out of the Blue Wave 2800 hybrid and absolutely love it. Bigger boat for sure but fishes like a big bay boat. Great layout.

Blazer Bay bought all of the molds from the bankruptcy but not sure if they are going to run with the 2600. You might call them and ask, maybe they will tell.
The blue waves I have run were fast and dry but I know of one that delaminated recently and it wasn’t a new hull.
Wish I would’ve taken a pic of the port side delamination, it was awful. I’m trying to buy parts off it once owner scraps it.

Seems to be a rule that Blue Wave owners gotta be fat as frick

Now that you say that…it does appear the majority of blue wave owners are husky or larger

Wtf???

They BUY molds now? Seems paying for a hull would go against their business model?

Yep, them actually purchasing and not pirating is unusual. They probably didn’t want the bankruptcy court aka Feds on their arse.

Im pretty sure they just shifted their business to Blazer Boats, because they owned both brands. You should be able to file warranty claims through them. Blue Wave filing for bankruptcy wasn't because of slow business, they were doing fine. It had something to do with building their factory on Indian land in Oklahoma and all of a sudden owing back tax incentive money after a transfer of ownership. Thats what a dealer told me. All of their models are now listed as Blazer Bay boats on their website.
