Lee Livesay got shafted by boat company

[Sleepy111]

From what I have seen the 204 and 223 aren’t those measurements. The numbers are “caliber” numbers. I was told the 204 is over 21’. I could have gotten wrong information though

Yea they are caliber numbers but it is also the length specs of each model, 204 is 20’4 and the 223 is 22’3. Beam on both is 94”.

Ballistic still has Livesay's black boat from last season featured on their website, with his name clearly visible on the wrap!

One angler in our club is still out thousands as he put a deposit down on a Ballistic and later found out he was never getting it. Owner was going through a split and needed the money… After seeking legal advice, was told to basically cut his losses.

Most likely. That guy got screwed over a lot of money!

So if and when you sell your Ballistic are you buying another one?

Absolutely, I’ve had more compliments on this boat than any other one I’ve ever owned and I would take the Pepsi challenge with any other manufacturer as far as build quality is concerned. Ive had several opportunities to sell my boat but I’m not selling it for less than it’s worth. These boats have and always will be a low production custom built boat. The reason mine is for sale has absolutely nothing to do with what brand it is.

I asked about the black Ballistic 204 on their FB page that is for sale and they messaged me the price of 106k. I asked what the price was of a 223 and was told both boats are the same price. I call BS on that, that just price gouging at its best. You would expect a price difference being the 223 is 2 foot longer boat and using more material so how they are the same price is crap. I’ve got a Bullet now and if I was ever going to spend that kinda coin on another fun boat it would be an Allison, not a Ballistic. Now I’m curious on the real truth on why they hosed him like they did.

.204 is 7” shorter than a .223 not 2 feet. I’ve owned both models.

One of the guys who was pushing them really hard all sudden sold his boat and then boat broke up cracking everywhere that was replaced. Now that guy runs a Blazer for awhile now

I know Fowler pretty well and never heard that story, guess the internet wins on this one. Lol

If you really love that boat (it is a beautiful boat), might not be a bad idea to hang onto it. Who knows if ballistic will be around when you are ready to buy again.

[RangerL21]

I haven’t had a chance to take the boat out in a year, that’s why it’s for sale.

[Transom]

Wow, normally only the federal government treats people that poorly.

[ssmithboats]

johnny doesnt buy boat builders that only builds a few boats a year if you remember he bought legend not because they were a money making boat company he just wanted the building an the workforce to build the triton boats that he already had a market for.

This guy must have been a taxidermist before he started building boats.

Ya, those texts are a huge red flag. Even though I’m sure some is taken out of context, keeping a 10k deposit because “you treated my family bad” is beyond scummy.
