    One person in my area has one that I know of. Never even saw it in person. They are built not that far from me so you would think you would see more of them.

    Yep..... I've had several, have 2 now. I wouldn't ever borrow money to finance a boat utv, etc. I totally understand why many do, but, I could never bring myself to sign the note.

    As for Ikon, I've studied em and they look to be a very, very high quality boat.

    I've seen some sales figures on the number of fiberglass bass boats sold by the various manufacturers per year. There are some fairly well-known brands that would be thrilled to sell 150 boats in a year so there is absolutely no way Ikon sold 150 boats at the Classic, and I suspect it will be some time before they have annual sales of 100 boats. They have a fantastic product but they have priced themselves into the upper .5% of that market.

    I think what he meant is they sold 1 boat for $150,000 at the classic. They are nice boats. I wish the company the best, but I doubt I will ever own one.

    Not sure how you come up with that from this.

    They are selling plenty of boats. They sold over 150 just at the Classic. Thats more than Ballistic has sold in 5yrs.

    I'm just the opposite cash is too valuable, so I use someone else's cash. if something happens financially all I loose is my credit score. I just don't pay full term and do not over extend myself.

    I’m no computer programmer guru web page man but…………Adding a line on the Bass Boat Forum may be more work than any one wants to mess with. I do think the line will be needed.

    If you put a nice down payment down that would make financing alot easier.

    Now lets get back to talking about IKon boats and not cash/financing.

    Do you own one? Asking for a friend.
