I rode in one at the classic. If I didn’t own an Allison I’d own one. The fit and finish was great, the ride was awesome. We had a full tank of gas two people and ran up in the 80’s effortlessly. Contact Brian Dodge at Duck River he can answer any questions. They are soon to be a player in the big leagues.

Information is hard to come by on these boats. The good news is that everything I have seen or heard has been positive. I spoke to the owner Jim Wells and he seems like a good down to earth guy. Please keep the information flowing.
Satisfied: I appreciate it. I will be calling you in the morning.
Brian Dodge,
Thank you for the call today. Feeling good about pulling the trigger on a Ballistic 223.
I will be in the market for a new bass boat likely next year. Right now Triton or Ranger only consideration but would be interested in learning more about a Ballistic. Where is the best place to get information? Dealer in Oklahoma?
You can call me at 931-698-3498
I believe Ballistic has created a winning balance of fishing platform and performance. Time will tell, but I hope they are successful.
I think the new .204 will be the volume seller when its all said and done.

Boat handles great loaded...even with sporty..just don’t get it to high..
It will walk a little into high 70’s/low 80’s, but not bad at all..if you’ve driven any kind of high performance hull, it’s easy.
I think it handles big water(3-5) just as good as my 20 PHX..does great, and lands soft if you don’t happened to hit a big one..
Yes..all boxes stay dry..all day, in rain all day..even when pressure washing you carpet they will stay dry.
Love the CZone-you can get switch’s as backup option
None!!! Even running and testing boat had with 300R, not a single crack in over 75 hours.
Fishability and Speed!!
Absolutely dislike nothing!
Livewells at first seemed little shallow, but they are big..makes it very easy to reach into and get fish without standing on your head..so far, no dead fish
Trailer has been problem free other than plastic license plate holder breaking
At first For me, the seat back angle was a little too much...I’ve gotten use to it and find them comfortable-a foam seat cushion stuffed behind the seat back is easy to do..
Fishability is this boat! It’s all this boat is about! Comfortably fishing 3-4 people off front deck..step front from my deck to rear deck without setting down into boat..boat is solid on water with very min rocking side to side as guys move from side to side..Again, this is what this boat was made to do..fish from..and do it comfortably all day long..padded deck is awesome!
Fiberglass is absolutely flawless!!! The fit and finish I think is best I’ve ever seen on a boat!
Installed a keel guard-absolute must when launching by yourself..
Feel free to call me at 870-230-2350 or e-mail with any questions!!
Jim

I saw my first one this afternoon heading West on I 10 in Mississippi. I was heading East so did not get a great look at it because it went by so fast. I really liked what I saw though.
Falconpilot: Thank you for taking the time to answer so many questions. I spoke to one of the other owners a couple of weeks ago,and he also shared his experience and he had nothing but great things to say about them.
I have since pulled the trigger on a 223 and I can’t wait for it to be ready.
Are there any pictures of the storage compartments? Do the center storage compartments have tray dividers?
