I agree with you Steve. The Phoenix 618 Pro is a super boat/motor/trailer package. How much does the 618 on your website cost? That is a good looking boat.

I would consider a Phoenix for sure. Its a beautiful boat and everyone I have talked to loves them But dealers seem to be few and far between. That's when warranty work can become a logistical problem. Any way to work around this T Bird?

Good to see a Charger dealer in Texas. Not knocking the Phoenix but it would be hard to beat the ride of a Charger.
Congrats and Good Luck..

I dont own one. But I hav fished out of a couple, and I spent a day with Russ Lane in his. I currently have a skeeter, and have always been skeeter. But my next boat will be a phoenix PM sent.

Nice boats, crawled around in a few. Most owners seem pleased so that is all that matters. Would not be my top choice but I hope they sell a ton and stay around a long time. Their ownership seems like good people.

Ought to tell you something about how they operate. Good folks!

Most of the warranty issues involve engines. It's a 4 hour drive to where I bought my Phoenix but there are Yamaha dealers all over. In nearly 4 years, I've only needed engine work. The boat has been great.

Pretty good looking boat but like the layout of mine better. Just being honest but I dont see anything that would make me want to jump right out and trade brands.

I bought a 721 a month ago, after drooling over Darold Gleason's old boat more than once.
I traded my Nitro Z7 in on it and so far love it. To me the ride is incredible, after two back surgeries, I cannot handle the hard hits much, but this thing rides and drives like a sports car. I am still learning to drive it and will be playing with my setup soon, but straight from the dealer it runs like a scalded ape.

Could you post a picture of your Triton ? JK My fishing partner has a 921, if I was buying new that would be my choice. It's has tons of deck space and handles rough water great. Plus I think they are one of the best looking boats. When I pull it, I get 10-1 comments over my triton.

Well guy's, I carry/sell all 3 boats Phoenix, Legend, and Charger, so I think my statement concerning access to their company key personnel is pretty well qualified.
