    Unveiling

    I just can not believe that people with 50 years of innovation/building/unveiling/selling/whatever under their belt have an unveiling that looks like it was made by unorganized kids. JMO

    If I had 75,000 to spend on a fiberglass bassboat, that would not be on my list. A painted fiberglass bassboat???

    Point of interest.
    The G2 got beat up when it came out.
    Not saying I'm a fan, just saying.

    I saw it in person today, and will say it’s the worst looking boat at the show. Probably well built, and had some very nice features, but as far as the looks of it.....it’s leave a lot to be desired.

    And it was with all the options, makes you wonder what the stripped down ones will look like.

    I was also there, definitely not impressed or what I was expecting, but I'm sure they will move a bunch of boats. I was surprised by the little hook area toward the front of the top cap, wonder how many people will catch that on a dock pole.

    They definitely did it different, but you have to be careful with different. Customers can be traditionalist even when it is not in their best interest. The lack of flake in paint, the pickle fork up front, the lack of carpet on part of the front deck, etc will be big hurdles for many buyers to over come. My personal opinion is that they are going to struggle, but I am pulling for them because I love people and companies that challenge the status quo.

    The lack of carpet in console area is a great idea !

    The boat would look great behind a lifted Jeep on 24” wheels and chromed out suspension. Equally useless too! Why add crap that makes it look cheesy? Fake chrome vents? For what? Why? No carpet in spots that need it, and multi colored accent lighting? Who is the target demographic? Is it so you can match the lights to your jersey or rain suit? Is there a spinner option in the trailer wheels?

    I see nothing innovative about the boat, other than shallow water mounting locations designed into the transom. But, even then,
    that hurdle has been jumped already.

    Not impressed!

    It NEEDS a carbon fiber wing on the back, like a little import car, to complete its “look”.

    I’m sure it’s nice but I can’t passed the look. Not sold on the longevity of the paint....JMO. Who knows could be the best boat ever...

    Looked good to me and the paint sparkled. 21' has a 300hp rating. Like to see the speeds these boat will get. I bet other brands will put less carpet in soon. For what it is, i think it will do fine. I don't have 90G for a boat but many do.
