Are they circling the toilet? I didn’t notice until today that most of their pro staffers (that I could think off the top head) are running other boats this year.
Big Show is running a Ranger. Dustin Connell is running a Ranger. Bradley Roy is running a Phoenix. Casey Ashely is running a Caymas.
Drew Gill, Brent Chapman & Randy Howell appear to be running a Triton for the 2025 season.

Took long enough, not sure what purpose they serve between Nitro and Ranger.

It was really surprising to me when I saw DC switching to Ranger but with his success the last few years I am sure he got a sweet deal.

I bought my Skeeter back in 2022 and looked at Triton's real close. When I finally got down to the last two it was Triton and Skeeter for the final choices. I'd already noticed Triton was gone from a lot of dealerships they used to be in and really didn't see them appear in very many BPS stores either. I think the Grapevine BPS is the only place in this part of Texas that sells them now. Jimmy Granger in the Shreveport/Bossier area still sells them as well but they are the only two I know of that still handles Triton. They took over the Bayou Outdoors Super Center inventory when they bailed out of the boat business.

Randy Howell in a Ranger for 2025 season.
I know it all under the White Water Marine Group family but from the outside looking in, it appears that Triton is on the way out.

Not the first thing Johnny has screwed up. Regardless of what some crybabies that couldn't drive a boat said, Triton was a helluva platform.

It's only a matter of pinching pennies. Nothing to see hear, look away.

I’ve seen a few new Triton/Rude and Nitro/Merc combos out front of Rockwall Marine in the past 6 months or so. Almost like they’re just passing through. Maybe Tommy’s letting them ship to/through Rockwall.

You’re right grandbass. They were wearing black motors. The Rude was on back of a Ranger in a garage. At a house we looked at recently. Yup, I’m an old.

Their website shows Drew Gill and Brent Chapman as their pros. He mentioned he thought Caymas was probably headed down the same path. They've sold a lot of boats in this part of the country, I figure they'd probably make it based on the volume of boats I've known they have moved. Ikon and Vexus I wonder about as well.

I like the new XP Tritons. If I was in the market for a new boat then I would definitely give one a look.
They look a hell of a lot better than the old Tritons.
