    Ballistic 204 is about ready!

    0001.jpg0002.jpg

    Here are a couple of pictures of Brian Dodge's(Duck River Marine) new Ballistic 204. This bad boy will have a Mercury 400R hanging on the back in the next couple of days...All I can say is that you knocked this one out the park Brian!!! Jim Wells build some beautiful boats and it seems that every boat that comes out just raises the bar for the next!!

    I am definitely following. I can't wait to see the interior layout and final dimensions/specs. Ballistic is certainly peaking my interest.

    I would like to see inside the boat to see how the transom and braces are put together. 400R is a bunch of flat out nasty. It should fly.
    There’s no use being stupid if you’re not willing to show it off.

    Not quite done yet- had a delay in getting it out - Jim Wells/Ballistic Boats is sponsoring a Pro on the Bassmaster's this year - they had to moving things around a little in order to get the Pro's boat out it time. This decision was made by Jim and Brian as it's what is best for company growth right now - it wasn't like Jim just dumped Brian for the Pro...Brians 204 should be ready 1st week of Feb.

    That is a sweet looking boat , so they finish building the boat on the trailer? Any pictures of the inside of the hull before the cap goes on?

    Sounds to me that is exactly what he done! He jumped the customer and put the pro in his production spot.

    likely the customer doesn't care as it is winter in 80 percent of the country?????????? and the boat in the picture is for a dealer in a cold area also!!!

    I agree 100%. Customer got sh@t on. I have impulse buying syndrome and was eying these boats up seriously! I hope this does NOT ever happen again. Too many manufacturers out there have poor customer service. This doesn’t need to be another. I’m questioning my decisions now.... My wife will be excited, but I’m not. I’m staying tuned in, but now I have that “Vexus” feeling, where a guy had to take to social media to get his defective hull replaced. There’s always room for another fine boat in my shop, and I’m hoping Ballistic is the one. Following this til the turn out. Fingers crossed

    customer is a dealer in tn and the boat is for him personally and likely doesn't care as it is winter for a few more months???
