RP, I will ride in a 521. There are several guides that have them so they will not be as hard to find as one running a Legend. I just want to give the Legend an honest try before I pop for another Ranger. I know my little R91 is not the boat a 521 is but it has done me well so I do have a little bias to the Ranger side. LOL Thanks guys. I am going to call Eddie pretty soon.

The only Legend guys I know off the top of my head out there are Eddie Garrett and Dean Stroman. I've never fished with Eddie but have with Dean numerous times. I'm not sure Dean is guiding right now due to some health stuff. Gary Paris fishes a Legend. I'm guessing 5-7 years old but that's just a guess. The boat fishes and handles great. It is a bit narrower than a Ranger but of course there are trade offs.

Couldn't agree more on the Legend. Boat mine last year and just love that thing. I know all of the higher end boats are great, I'm just really partial to my Legend.
JimmyP - if you are around the Cypress Springs area this weekend, give me a shout. I am planning to hit the water for a few hours on Saturday before the rains get there. I run a 2012 Alpha 199.

I consider legend as about high end as you can get. In other words not cookie cutter as some of the other top brands. You very rarely see 2 legends that look the same. All the top brands are great boats I just like the custom feel of a Legend. There not cheap either with list being right around 60,000.

Eddie runs that boat and Ken Addington knows em pretty well too.
They are great looking boats.
Whether you think you can or you can't, you are probably right.
