    Crestliner MX21 is in the system

    My dealer told me today that he can now order the MX21. So we should begin to see them soon.

    Give your dealer a call today for pricing, I have not looked if you can build one on the website yet.

    The PT 20 has the largest decks I have ever seen on a bass boat. I am curious to see what they look like on the MX 21.

    $55K plus upgraded accessories will be my guess with a Pro XS 250 on it.

    And will be worth the money lets hope. Dealers had to get on board placing orders for boats they have never sold. This is a boat that will be worth the money for Bass and Crappie fishing. I believe it to be a sister boat to the Sea Ark BC 210 if one was to exist.. The Crestliner should be wide and very stable. Ride will be good to fair with it a 21 ft and 250. I hear speeds are well handled by the boats.These wide body aluminum will start to show well in both markets Bass and Crappie. I am a Lowe dealer waiting my turn to sell this boat built by Lowe. In the short time look close at the Crestliner MX21.

    Hats off to him for getting this project to the production line. I guess I will follow Cox in the Crestliner and see his method of fishing backwaters. Looks like my kind of Fisherman. Bet he has caught some slab crappie back in them holes.

    Thats too much. It needs to be 55 max, with dual poles, uktrex , and dual graphs. You can get a 2075 pro v bass with every bell and whistle for 62, and these boats are not quite as nice IMO. A Z21 pro is 62 also and thats with dual poles, jackplate, solix 12, solix 10, ultrex, upgraded carpet, padded deck, lighted boxes, etc.

    Yep, and try selling that rivited bass boat down here. Southern waters will be fiberglass or aluminum welded. Even though the Lund is as durable. Riveted 55,000 dollar plus bass boat here. Next to impossible to market. This MX21 will not bang up as bad as the new kids on the block, with their slick molded hulls. And fiberglass has just went out of most folks price range equipped well.

    I dont know if Crestliner has final numbers on price yet. They should know where to bring this rig to market at the correct price. We will see.

    I had 2 new Lunds in the past 4 years, when I sold them both of the buyers came from Wisconsin. Its hard to sell a used rivet boat for 65k down here for sure.

    There aren't many of us bass boats owners up here in Wisconsin. Deep V's are everywhere here and Lunds are king. Crestliner and Alumacraft are also very popular brands.

    The MX series will replace the PT series coming up. They will soon roll out a MX19.

    Looks like you can build one with options for 45k. Add poles, tm, dual graphs that puts you at 58 to 60. Maybe get only fully rigged out the door for low 50s? Not for me but a nice boat.

    The front deck looks much shorter than the Lund, with a lot less storage. Boat is 7 inches longer but looks like it has less space. Must have more rear deck.

    Yeah seems like a short front deck, but I bet it has more square footage up there. Rear storage boxes seem small also.
