Best boat I have ever owned, and I have owned a few. My last boat was a Skeeter,and it did not even come close to the Phoenix as far as fit , finish, ride, layout,quality of components and customer service goes. Take a ride in one and you will be sold

I am currently in a 921, this is the 4th Phoenix I've owned. Best boat and company in the business, in my opinion. Love everything about the 921.

Just bought the new 920pro xp. Super fast. Handles great. Storage is awesome. Have been in triton for 4 years. Still have it and was gonna get a new triton. Same size triton with same add ons was $14k more. So far, great boat!

I rode in Aaron Martens 921 during the TTBC. I liked what I saw. It was pretty choppy that day and the ride was real good. You know it's always rougher on the passenger side so if its good there the driver ride is better. Nice layout. Lots of deck space and storage. It seemed to be constructed well. He said it's the shallowest draft on tour. It will get real skinny. He went in a spot easy that my basscat can barely get into. Maybe he had a little better line going in, who knows. It's fast. I looked over and GPS is at 80.4. Having me in there added 265#. Of course he does alot of things like only fill the oil and gas to where he needs it, lithium batteries, weight distribution etc. It got out of the hole real good as well. He seemed to really like it. And they don't all rave about what they are driving when you get them away from the dock.
Definitely worth a look if you are considering a new boat.

I have a 721 but I'm thinking of going to a 921. I've been very happy with mine.

I am seriously considering one. Will be looking as soon as my boat sells. I haven't rode in one yet but I have looked at them in person and seen all the literature.

Appreciate your feedback. Phoenix definitely thought of the angler when they designed these boats. The attention to detail paid in the fit/finish of these boats is the best I've seen in the industry(too include Bass Cat).

We took a tour of the Factory, and let me tell you, if I was to buy another boat, it would be a Phoenix, the wife really liked the rod storage for the passenger side and I liked all the standard features that are add ons for anyone else

I own a 721 and to me its the best ride I've ever been in. The layout of the boat to me is the most thought out, from the weekender to the hardcore tournament guy. It is just a well thought out and designed boat. I will be in a Phoenix from now on.

But my next boat will be a phoenix Same here, I fished a PAA event last year with Russ Lane and his Phoenix was a real nice rig. I used to work for a Phoenix dealer in Kansas and I must say these boats are a value. One that is overlooked is the 600 series. These boats are quite the offering for someone who is not pro or rich.

I agree with you Steve. The Phoenix 618 Pro is a super boat/motor/trailer package.
