    BOYS........... I HAVE SEEN THE TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN!!!!!!!!!!!

    My factory tour was awesome. Jeff walked me thru every process and all the raw materials used in detail. He answered all the questions I had and explain what makes these Birds special. I have been thru tours by 2 other boat manufacturers and every time it was generic and didn't go into detail. A very special thanks to Jeff and Junior who was also there. We all went to lunch along with a few other guys from the factory and had a good time.
    NOW FOR THE GOOD PART!!!

    When we got back to the factory Ray Brazier was there with his new 921/ 250 Verado Pro in tow. There have only been 2 made so far Ray has 1 and the other was at the Classic. Ray suggested we all head to the lake. All we could say was HELL YEA!!! Ray backed Junior and I in and we took her for a spin. AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! is the only word for it. Junior put her thru the paces getting the feel of the BIG girl and the difference in the Verado. It pushed the BIG girl very well and holeshot was good too. We stopped in the middle and Junior was checking out the deck. I said I know you're not just teasing me and you're gonna let me drive this BIG girl? He said let's go.
    YES BOYS............... I got to run the 921 WOW!!!!!!!! Glad I took the day off work! Handles like a dream, takes corners like she is on rails. Didn't want to get crazy since it wasn't our boat but it is NICE!

    So now you have a little insight as to why we are so adamant. Phoenix is the REAL DEAL!

    Kevin it was great hanging with ya at the factory!! Jeff and Mark do an awesome job explaining what makes these boats stand so far above the rest!!! We had great time at lunch with the phoenix gang and put a serious hurting on a bottle of yummy sauce at the japanese steakhouse. Guys for the ones of you that want the pinnacle of the phoenix line-up the 921 is bringing it with both barrels cocked and loaded!!! As with the rest of the phoenix line up the handling is superb and the monster deck is simply awesome! Greg Strahm you are simply the Da vinci of bass boat design
