Starting at $77,856 MAP* And apparently that's with an 80# Fortrex & 3 bank charger. Add a couple grand for 112# TM, another battery and upgraded charger. Who would run a 24V TM on a 22' glass rig? Looks like they're following the Bass Pro shop sales model of under equipping to get you in the door and then upsell it.

I think I've mentioned this before on here. There's only something like 8,000 new fiberglass rigs sold annually. I'd bet the majority of those are sold to guys getting some kind of a deal from the manufacturer. Probably some guys out there, who buy new every year just being okay with the fact they are going to take a 15% loss annually. In that regard, only the first one is crazy expensive. I know guys who get into brand new nitros for 45-50k and sell them a year later for 55-60+. I'm sure it's no different on these other brands

That sucker looks like a Deep V lol but for 78k I can get two pretty nice used boats... If it wasn't for people buying new boats there would be no used ones. As for the price its no more then a new similarly equipped Ranger or BassCat. But if I were spending that kind of money I think that I'd rather have a boat from a proven company that I have faith will be around to cover the warranty and some sort of track record with the boats. They're still too much of a gamble at this point. I would not be afraid at all to buy this brand, the folks behind it are all top notch, I did not buy because the boat did not appeal to me, I crawled all over it, it is built as good as it gets.

Saw my first one in person last week. It is a BIG boat at almost 22' long and 102" beam. The thing that struck me was how deep the boat was. From the bottom of the vee to the top of the gunwale looked to be about four feet. Lots of cool features on the boat. A couple things I would have changed but the perfect bass boat has not yet been built.
I think you have a new life goal Ken....to launch your own boat company....KC boats.......Korean Cowboy......could even have the best slogan of all time...Looks like Bruce Lee, Rides like John Wayne.  Something about you ain't quite right Gilroy.

The seats in these boats have an AirWave set up under them. They also slide back and forth for us lanky folks. But are they heated?

Is that a build sheet on the side that is peeled off when you get it home? The one there in the middle of the side of the boat.

Be a lot more than that. I trade every 2-3 years, I would estimate it to be around 30-35 % for three years, so 10-12 % a year on average over a 3 year period. If you have your boat paid for its not that bad, you get to stay in warranty and you have the latest and greatest equipment.
