Reality is (to me), the best boat being made is now a thing of the past, the V-20. Thankfully I got mine just over a year ago and from a dealer (Sartin Marine) who I know will stand behind it until I ride it into the ground. I'm not a new boat every couple of years guy so won't need a new boat for a long time and quite frankly there isn't one out there today I would want over this one anyway.
If I were in the market for a new boat I wouldn't hesitate to buy a 1 year old V-20 as long as it was from someone you know would take care of you long term.
Parts could be an issue down the line but I can't see that playing a major role. I had an Alpha 199 for 5.5 years and never needed a single part for it.
If you have any questions feel free to send me a PM.

In my opinion they are the best looking boats on the lake. Of course looks arent everything, and when it comes to spending the money I don't want to just settle. It'll take me a while to research the right boat for me, and when I do finally make my decision it will be customized down to the very last pin stripe.

Good luck because most of the big guys seem to be going away from the complete custom thing of year's past. I think Skeeter even went to a somewhat limit color options last year. If you look you can find some V-20's out there just make sure you get them through a dealer that will stand behind you.

Might want to read this http://texasfishingforum.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/12829207/Re:_Legend_Boats#Post12829207 Theres are still some custom bass boat builders they're just not very well know, you have Norris Craft, there's one out of florida also who's name I can't remember, I guess basscat is still kinda custom too. We'll see what happens with Vexus... Most of the big brands have gone to cookie cutter mass production like they said with skeeter you only have a set # of color templates you can choose from now, quite a difference from skeeters roots and disappointing.

Where did you come up with that figure ?
I am a Senager. (Senior teenager) I have everything that I wanted as a teenager, only 50 years later. I get an allowance every month. I have PU truck and a bass boat, I am blessed. Conscience never acquits, it either accuses or excuses.

Sinkey, I started customizing a FX20 online, color, electronics, hyd. jackplate and before I could finish was up to $101,000. If I did have that kind of money no telling how long the wait would be. Custom ordering a bass boat in my mind is for lottery winners and even then it would take a few drinks.

Of course that is just a boat, 250 hoss, and trailer. $ 78,000 and change but didn't mention any goodies and we all know how those goodies can add up. Find one on a showroom floor, say Fun n Sun, and see the real price. I don't see one in my future anytime soon. Oh wait, the lottery is tonight. hmmmm

Best way to beat the competition? Kill it so there IS no competition!Too bad. I like Legend boats!! Right now Johnny Morris and Skeeter are the big dogs and are holding the rest accountable. I think you forgot to add Phoenix to that list...

Where did you come up with that figure ? Seeing how KD sells Skeeters I bet he knows a little bit about them.

I think you forgot to add Phoenix to that list... Phoenix is a great boat and one of my favorites but here's the problem, there's only ONE dealer within 500 miles of me and that's Fun n Sun. Take a moment and count the Skeeter dealers. Dealers sale the boats not the factory. Phoenix is not in the same category.
