The people buying these boats ought to be ridiculed due to the ridiculous price point. Sure, it's their money (not really, it's the banks money) and they can spend it how they want. But I'll exercise my 1st Amendment right to laugh and criticize those who pay $140k for a bath tub all because Jacob Wheeler endorsed it. I'm sure they could care less what you think. Actually most are laughing at a pauper like you.

You can literally buy same boat from another manufacturer for half and be able to go faster. Plus its the ugliest boat on the market. Little man syndrome is hardcore with a few on here.

A lot of people buy that kind of boat as a flex to make those too broke or too cheap to buy those kind of toys grind their gears.
Total troll

I know lots of folks that don’t need the banks money for these kinds of purchases. If it fishes well and rides comfortably I would pay more for that than top speed at this stage of life. Hell everyone said the same about Vexus when it came out and I love mine and I don’t give a damn what anyone else thinks about it.

I’m guessing mostly broke people are the ones complaining about the price and speed of the Ikon.

Ok, a new expensive boat brand is now koolaide, that’s a new one. It’s not a boat I would be interested in but judging by the comments, it’s price tag is what triggers most.

The target audience for the boat has got to be retired people. They are a big sled. Imagine tournament fishing and running to your first spot and get passed by a ranger. Lol

Yeah I bet the new Bass Cat Caracal with a 300 on it will be $120k+, at this point it’s pony up or just keep crying about prices.
