Yep Ikon. That boat is going to hurt some brands feelings. It looks like one sweet ride. So they will be cheaper? My feelings revolve around a dollar.

Well then when they are released your feelings are going to be hurt Their video said they were targeting “professional athletes and such”, I’ll roll with it being over $150k.

About 90% of my clientele is pro athletes or music industry types. All I can say is more power to them. What a headache.

On live coverage yesterday, Wheeler couldn't get one of the livewell lids open to cull, the latch wouldn't turn. It took him about 20-30 seconds, must have been embarrassing

That is a normal thing that happens on boat latches.
See you on the lake and have a great day!

I have never owned a new bass boat.
I could maybe afford a new, but don’t understand what I am seeing these days
I pulled into Lake Fork Lodge, backed in my 98 Champion, garage kept with very low hours with my 2014 F150 with 63k miles, both cleaned up and shining.
I looked down the line of rigs - I had the cheapest combo in sight.
Do you guys really pay $600-$800 a month in these boats and also have $1000 a month trucks or how do you do it?

Link to Article What Are The Trim Levels For iKon Boats?
There are 4 trim levels available for iKon Boats. The only released trim level is the LX21 which is a 21’11” bass boat. According to iKon Boats: “we will have a boat for every budget“. More to come as we find out more

I used the 100% down payment method- but I agree it’s just nuts- but hey kudos to the guys buying them, they are beautiful and I’m happy for them.

That is a normal thing that happens on boat latches. Are you being facetious/sarcastic? I've never had a problem getting a latch to function on a livewell.

I am anxious to crawl around inside one of the new iKons. The bassboat market has room for another premium boat. Ikon's parent company, HCB Yachts builds offshore CC boats in the $4-$5mm price range. They know how to build a quality product. I like the bloodline this boat carries.
I bought a new Hydra-Sports bassboat in 1978. I bought another one in 1985. I am excited to see what the company will bring back to the bass fishing industry 45 years later.
