Dang! sharp I love those colors on just about any boat Do you know the exact colors?
Brannon Worner from Fox Lake Marine in Fox Lake, IL In my opinion he is a master of colors, these pictures don't do it justice. Everywhere I stop here in New York everyone comes up and looks at it, not just cuz its a phoenix, they love how it looks!
I will contact Brannon and have him post the colors.
This is the nicest ride out of ANY manufacturer. After I seen this, I started checking into the Phoenix brand and was quite impressed, I had never really paid that much attention to them before. If I ever do buy a new ride, this will be it!!!

In the 2nd pic, what is that little white thing on the bow console where the graph should go?
It's a remote control for the Talons....dual remote. I also have a single remote control at the console...which is rigged to retract or deploy both of them at the same time. Great for retracting after you've left the bow and now sitting behind the wheel.
I am getting ready to purchase a new 721 pro xp in the next couple of weeks. I was interested in knowing what you think about the talons you installed on your boat. I am considring them as well since I like the fact there is no hydralic equipment. Like to hear both pros and cons. Do the talons operate at the same time from your remotes aor individually? Nice looking rig!

I have a dual remote control attached to the bow. I can operate the Talons individually with that remote. Helps if i want to set one down and allow the boat to swing into position before setting the other one. They retract the same way. I ordered the dual remote as an optional accessory.
Each Talon comes with a remote control. You can program the remote to operate one unit only...or both at the same time.
I have the one on the console set to operate both units at the same time. If I forget to retract them once I'm back at the steering wheel, I simply hit the up button and both retract.
A few weeks ago; I launced from a gravel ramp that was not the best place to launch. Because I had to keep moving the vehicle to position the trailer so that the boat would load correctly; I forgot to retract one of the Talons. I literally drug the Talon up the ramp with the spike extended. Two feet of the nylon rod spike was bent over . I had to remove 3 bolts and turn the Talon for it to release enough pressure from the nylon rod to get it straight. Upon the rod becoming near straight - I hit the up button and it retracted without a problem. It's worked good since then. They are built very well.
I like the quick disconnects....Allows it to be removed in minutes...or put on just as fast.
