    Legend was not building any boats and they only had one model that sold. Triton on the other hand had plenty of orders and needed a place to build them. JM and White River spent 4 million dollars to get the plant in Midway up and running for Triton.

    Why keep a boat brand if they aren’t selling?

    Actually Kenny, it worked out great, JM gained a big beautiful nearly new manufacturing facility and didn't have to build it.

    legends biggest problem was they didn't have a good dealer network for retail sales an half the boats they built were low margin team boats. triton doesn't have this problem they have many dealers an they sell a lot of boats now that they have the facility to build them.

    Great for JM and White River. A guy I know that run Legends boats the whole time I've fished around him sold his legend and bought a Phoenix.
    I like my tr21 but its pre White river and I will never ever own a boat again that JM owned. NEVER. It's pretty bad when the quality of a 97 tr21 is better than a z19 2017 model. And if I ever get rid of my tr21. Phoenix or Skeeter will be my only choice if i ever buy a new boat.

    The quality on my 2020 21 TrX is great and it runs very good. 78 mph with two aboard earlier this week.
