Legend to Phoenix

[1969ls]

Just wanted to say I went yesterday and ordered a new 2020 920 pro Xp. I have been running a Legend since 2015 but since Johnny bought them out and shut them down who knows what the market for Legend boats will be. I went with a Phoenix because it road as welll as my Legend it was a lot dryer and a lot faster. I gave up a lot of deck space but gained a lot of speed. I could have went with a nitro or ranger and got a bigger deck but then I would have had to buy a Johnny Morris boat and that is not going to happen right now. That said in 9 to 11 weeks I will be a Phoenix owner.

Congrats! Can’t wait to see it!
now what happens when Johnny buys Phoenix?? Haha...just kidding...I have not heard anything that would lead me to believe that will be happening soon.
What colors/engine?

[1969ls]

Galaxy mist top cap black ice and royal blue pins. Mercury 250 pro xs 4 stroke

Sh!t....that’s gonna be awesome...great choices!!

And I have heard rumors that he is looking. But at this moment it is just rumors. I talked to a gentleman that knows the owner of Phoenix well and he assured my that would never happen. But everyone knows money talks.

I have one ordered. It will be solid Galaxy mist with royal blue pins.

Maybe Gary will buy BASS PRO SHOPS

I don't think Gary is the money behind Phoenix.

Too bad about Legend, I seen one last night in our Wednesday tournament and they are an awesome ride.

That's what JM does, he buys a company that builds a better boat then him and he kills it. Even the ones he kept around aren't what they used to be. Not a big difference in quality between Nitro, Triton and Ranger anymore from what I've seen.

I’m pretty sure that JM bought Legend for the facilities and workforce. He bought a company with extremely low sales and re-tooled it to build boats that sell well (Triton). It was just a business transaction to maximize profits, and was not based on “killing” a company that builds a better boat.
JM isn’t the only guy in the industry focused on maximizing profits. Why does boat manufacturer X use lower grade carpet or manufacturer Y outsource their trailer manufacturing? To maximize profits. ifs the American way.

C’mon man...get outta here with that.

But it was ok to buy a Johnny Morris motor? You do realize he is the largest shareholder in Mercury?

Congrats on the move the Phoenix and good luck on the sale of your Legend. I always look forward to seeing everyone's new boat
