Kyle Halls boat caught my eye on MLF tournament today and had to look it up, how many pro's are using the new Ikon's? Good looking boats!

I thought I read where Josh Jones was getting into Ikon, did that ever happen?

Only other one I know of, heard him on a podcast say there were less than 100 Ikon built so far

Stopped in Wieda's Marine last week when we were back north for a visit. He has two on site, one in the showroom. Crawled all over it and I'll give it a solid 8... There are much prettier boats on the market and I thought a lot of the "innovations" were just another thing waiting to break... Dan

Have you seen the two for sale in Grove? I saw a white one right when you cross the honey creek bridge, I guess that’s a new marine dealer? I was going to circle back and check it out after my run to Lowe’s but it wasn’t there when I came back by.

Ugly bathtubs. Isn't the top speed on the 21 like 58 or 62 mph? What concerns me is if these things start selling then that will prove to the other manufacturers that they can have their 20/21 footers START at $115k like these boats.

I think if a guy can drop over $110,000 or more on a boat. He really doesn't care what others think. You buy a boat for yourself. And have it rigged like you want. Most people that slam a really nice truck or boat usually can't afford it. Jealousy brings out the worst in people. I love the set up on this boat. The tackle storage looks awesome. And I don't think a fish bites because a boat is good looking. You may look better coming and going. But did the looks of your boat help you catch more fish.

Several of the top brands are already over 100k. Even nitro went up 30 percent. People keep buying they'll keep going up
