Could possibly be that JM owns Nitro, Triton and Ranger and also started the Bass Pro Tour. Swindle left BPT and went back to Bassmaster and now has a phoenix. ????

Not in Swindle's case as he has the credentials to receive top billing, but you are going to see some of the Triton guys change brands as they are not getting the PD pricing now that they were 2-3 years ago.

Johnny Morris owns Triton, Nitro, Ranger, & Stratos under White River Marine. He ended Legend Boats when he bought them and those Pro's now run Rangers or Nitros. All of the people who made the Rangers, Tritons, Stratos, & Legend great boats are out the door.
BCB, Phoenix, Blazer, Bullet, & even Vexus are all better quality then anything JM owns. I wont own anything that is owned by WRM Group & JM. That's just me and my preferences, Ill stick with BCB and if I switch it will be Phoenix or Bullet.
If you think Bulet and Blazer have better build quality than Triton and Ranger then you must have been in different boats then the ones I have had experience with!

Don't have any seat time in those two tater chip boats you listed other than looking at them on the showroom floor but I see where your coming from.

I have a 2017 Triton and a 2020 Bullet setting next to each other in my barn, you are more than welcome to come and compare, the Bullet is far more quality than the Triton and I love a triton. It also out rides it and needless to say out performs it.

Lambert isn't hard to figure out either. He finished the MLF year in 79th place out of 80 with a grand total earnings of $0.00. He's placed high in almost nothing outside of Kentucky Lake and the Tennessee river for his entire career. I'm guessing there were not a ton of boat companies begging to sponsor him. I'm amazed he has been able to maintain sponsorship this long.

If you think Bulet and Blazer have better build quality than Triton and Ranger then you must have been in different boats then the ones I have had experience with! IMO, yes they are. Bullet for sure is higher quality then the 2. I had a triton for TR22 for 4 years and loved it. was a pre JM model and have no complaints. For me, i wont own a brand that JM owns. Hell i dont even shop at BPS. his products are over priced, cheap quality, and mostly knock offs. But again, that's my opinion.

I would think all of the lines that are now owned by BPS will come down to who they hire to manage those unique product lines. Hope they hired some good people cause I like Tritons
