I replaced my 12 Ranger Z521 with a used 14 phoenix 921. Everything but the fit and finish is on par with or better than my Z521. Anyone who says differently is just nut swinging.

I'd get a 920 or 921 over a 721 though.

Not a small company anymore


At least 7 of these anglers can run whatever boat that they want to run. I am sure there are money considerations factoring into the equation but the 7 guys I am referring to can generally buy or be "sponsored" by whatever boat they want excluding any past political issues with a company. Of course there is also the darn near monopoly issue with the Johnny Morris companies.

All of us need the Phoenix, BassCat and Legend boat brands to be successful. Fortunately they are all building very good boats.

Very well said Neal G. If the Bass Pro Group thinks they can corner the market, I think most of us see through that. So yes we all need what I call the custom boat builders to do well. And while we're at it, has anybody looked at the new Charger boats.

We are extremely pleased to be a Phoenix dealer. Absolutely no problems with anything outside your normal small stuff that all boats will suffer, which is usually a small gauge or fitting that someone else manufactured. They are a great company to pair with our already successful Skeeter boat line and why we feel like we are, and strive to be, THE BASS BOAT HEADQUARTERS.
We have been dealers for multiple lines in the last 30 years and have had our share of warranty issues with past brands, but what we have now so far, has been the happiest we have ever been. There will always be naysayer about anything that they don't run, or can't afford. Nothing wrong with it because the critique is what keeps us and our brands on our toes. Keeps me and my staff challenged and I love a good challenge!
Anyone that wants to come ride and see for yourself, I welcome it. If typing opinions without research is your thing, then I encourage that too. Let the educated buyer be the deciding factor, whether its a Phoenix, Skeeter or something else from somewhere else. Just buy a boat and get out and enjoy Gods creatures. Stuck on a computer in the dark is not healthy. cheers

I bought my Phoenix from Fun-N-Sun a year ago in June and can say that they are a great place to do business with. From the boat salesman,tackle salesman,finance department,and back to the shop. The staff is great to deal with. Call them and set up a demo ride. They take people out all the time.

Been reading this all day and finally have decided to give my two cents. I am not sponsored by anyone and buy all of my boats myself I have owned one Ranger and two Triton's and just bought a new 921 last week after riding in a couple of my friends a few times and while I cannot say how long it will hold up I will say that here on the big Bend the Phoenix is by far the best riding driest that I have ever been in and I cannot wait to get this new one on the water!!!

I own a Phoenix 920 and it by far is the best all around boat made today hands down. Customer service is unbeatable you call you talk right then when with someone who can get it done. As far as the boat rough water ride is the best, fit and finish is awesome, storage in my opinion is unbeatable, fishability is great on the TM probably the only boat as close to a Ranger ya I just gave Ranger some props. Speed of the boat is well fast you will have to learn how to drive it. You cant go wrong with a Phoenix.

That maybe so but they all left and went to Phoenix for a reason.

Say what you want but I guarantee you that Phoenix is taking customers away from the other boat builders every day.
I knew this would happen when I saw the topic thats ok if they ever open their minds and ride in one it will be all over for them.

Yes you will loose a letter here and there if you fish stumpy lakes but you know what all you have to do is call Tim and you will have a new one within 2 days.

Lamoon78 I'm sorry I even commented. I forget I'm not allowed to say anything on the boards, even if it's from their website. For you to single me out, you must know me. What's your name sir?
