For the Legend owners. . . What are likes and dislikes about your boats? Looking at a 07 and a 10. Never have personally been in one!

Pro's
- Best customer service hands down in the industry. Hands down. Not even close.
- Bad [censored] looking boat
- Handles rough water with the best of them.
- Cuts turns on a dime, very very smooth.
- 2x money during legend tournaments via hand written in person check from the owner Randy.
- Largest Livewell in industry
- Two huge fuel tanks
- Solid Company, will be in business for a LONG TIME.
Con's
- Blue "Ride with a Legend" trailer lights on side constantly burn out.
- Storage could be larger.
Bottom Line
There is only one boat better. Ranger Z521...

You mean one boat currently being made.
Champion trumps all.
Are both hulls Alphas? Some 07's are LE and Alphas.
They are everything Jersey said. The Ranger Z520's are the cats meow though. Tough to go wrong with a Legend though. They are not perfect but have way more pros than cons.
I will add that the bow is narrow to some and it leans more than I like with 2-3 guys. The finish out on them is awesome. Overall 8 of 10 in my experience.
Are the new models wider?

I recently demo the Triton, skeeter Fx, and the Legend alpha 211r. In my opinion, the Legend was the better of the three. So I settled on the Legend Alph 211r and ordered it. The 2013 Alpha 211R is 3" wider at the bow then the previous models. And they're a completely custom boat.

I think if you are choosing between a LE and a ALPHA take the ALPA hands down better hull

Correct, my statement is regarding the Alpha series 199 / 211
I love my Alpha 211... best boat I have owned. The only other boat I would even consider is a Ranger.

This was my experience as well--less stable when fishing with 2+ people (comparing to a Z521 Ranger and ZX250 Skeeter). Fit and finish on the Legend is a 10, IMO.

The one thing i think was visually unappealing was the rear deck and the huge gunnels. I have seen they have rectified this with a raised deck model.
