I'm planning on moving to a new server within the next 2 to 3 weeks. Just a little friendly warning as there might be a few hours of odd behavior when the process starts. I will try to have it done at night or weekend.

Im interested in getting some feedback on Phoenix Boats. I have read a lot of good stuff and saw a couple at the Classic Expo a couple of years ago. I just havent gotten much info on experiences with them. If you have an opinion or experience that will give me some more insight into the brand I would appreciate it.

Lake Drive Marine is now selling them. I'm thinking about taking one for a test drive this summer to see if I like it. Give Jeff a call. They have some pretty neat features.

I got the opportunity to fish in a 921 Pro XP on Table Rock in August. Man, what a blast! Hands down the best bass boat I have every been in. Not to mention the fishing was great! The two of us boated about 40 bass, (Smallmouth and Spotted) 2 walleye, and 2 big catfish. The price is hefty but you get what you pay for.

I purchased a 2012 619pro in the fall, 200 merc. really nice boat, got a heck of a deal, well built, nice features, rides nice in LSC.

Researched the heck out the comparable boats. Drove me nuts.  Extremely satisfied.

Im not interested in looking anymore, I just got one!

I took a trip south back in late December, checked out a couple BIRDS and skeeters in KY and Tenn. I test drove 2 Pheonix boat (921 and 721) and a Skeeter FX21. All were great rides but the ride in both Phoenix boats were AWESOME! One place had a pro's boat there (721 with Yamaha SHO 250) loaded with gear, 3/4 tank of fuel and 3 of us on the boat (which was a loaad in itself, we arent small!). It was cold, windy and a little rough water. Running that thing up and down the lake and it was FAST for the load-72mph, DRY and SMOOTH! We then went to Winchester, Tenn. to the Phoenix factory and took about a 5 hour tour and taIked to just about everyone there, they were a great bunch of people. Price was much better than the other brands, many things that are upgrades on others are standard there.
I gave the options I wanted no matter what the brand to about 6 dealers of both brands and for the price Phoenix was way ahead, and thats what I was hoping to start with after the trip. Ordered it from Lake Drive in Coldwater and have already taken her to Bama for a week, breaking in the motor and a little fishing of course.

Im like a kid in a candy store!!! Going back south in a couple of weeks cuz the hard water here isnt thawing fast enough.  IM GLAD TO BE A BIRD MAN!
