    FXR21 Apex "option 5" colors

    Why isn't FXR21 Apex "option 5" getting any love by the dealerships? I think this is one crazy cool looking color option for a boat! Your thoughts?

    At this point it’s time for new colors. 2 years of the same is too much!

    I like it, I like pretty much all the color options, I mean it is a Skeeter. Hard to make one look bad imo

    I am not a fan of red, not at all. That bias out of the way I’d say it seems like less traditional colors are all the rage right now. It’s good graphics and a sharp boat though. I personally don’t like the colors.

    With option #5 it kinda surprised me is the Midnight Star color (what appears to be black) has green/blue/red/silver flake in it. Also, the Silver color has Silver/red/green/blue flake in it. I'm not sure if I can pull the trigger on it without seeing it in person. It's nice looking but I'm afraid there might be too much going on. Your thoughts?

    My thoughts? Go for it!! Is the boat in the pic the one you’re looking at buying? Love the dual console, one thing I wish was different about my boat.

    I have a 22 Apex FXR20 in this color combo. Looks great in person, I get people looking at it in parking lots quite a bit.

    Awesome. Yes, I think I'm going to take a chance on it.

    Awesome! Just curious if the multicolor flakes in the black seem busy to you or is it subdued enough that its only an enhancement? I love those colors too... There just something about black and red I love on boats and cars. Thanks

    I think that particular red is sharp.

    yep that’s the one. Got it under contract now and sending down payment Monday. I can’t wait! Only problem is it’s missing the entire tackle storage system. Gonna cost me $1100 to replace it and the Skeeter net.

    Don't pay that for it. I took mine out on both my FXR's as soon as it got home. Mine is sitting on a shelf in the garage, I use my own tackle storage set up. It's literally two aluminum bins with cheap plano boxes.

    Oh wow okay, wish I would have caught this earlier. Just paid $118 shipped for another guys trays but he doesn’t have the Plano boxes. It was covered in cobwebs. LOL
