Kudos to Phoenix

I sent an email to Teresa Johnson, inquiring about a boat. She not only replied right away, she had an employee ( I think his name was Lance) to call me the same day. Nice customer service. Thanks

Well, with a name like that he'd better be.
Remember "With a name like Smucker's, we've gotta be good!"?
Hmmmm..."Lance"...nice name!

They have been great to work with so far.

The folks at the factory are first class to work with in every way!!!!

As a boat dealer, I have to say this is a first class outfit as well! Doesn't matter who answers the phones, they know the answer! We just sold a 295 SuperVee yesterday with a 200 E-Tech, it ran at top speed of 85.8mph. Customer came back as soon as he left the lake to tell us how much he loved his Bee Line.

I kinda have to agree with that statement.

[tricountyboats.com]

Personally with our GPS and the test run of this boat, I had it at 79 mph. Customer came back and told us he had it 85.8. I was not in the boat then, but was in the boat when it ran 79 mph, I was driving.

Man, that's as fast.

[NervousB]

I have a 295 Bee-Line with a 200 opti! I haven't pushed mine that far but I would agree with the high 70's.


Would like to know his set up!

[ep72]

Wait a dadburn minute.........did I read correct, a 200 horse will push a 295 to nearly 80?

WOW!

[mercury97]

85mph......79mph.....

[EASTWOOD]

i have a 295 dual console with a 200 opti. best i have got with 3/4 tank,empty livewells,all my gear(heavy) and two people is 71.6 . i am turning a stock 26 tempest @ 5700 rpm-2 3/4 under pad.

[BassCatCowboy]

thats prety good with a load!! you should see i would say 77 empty. And if you play with your set up and your prop you should hit 80 empty, but I think for a tourny boat you have it just about right. try adjusting the jack plate a little and see if you can hit 74. I'd say your RPM are ok I would like to see you hit 5800. But for the boat you have 71 is GREAT.

[carcass dragger]

You guys aren't going to sell more boats trying to BS people like that.

[gterrien]

I don't think we are trying to BS anyone. One customer claims the 295 ran 85mph which most of us find hard to believe (it may have been a speedo reading, not GPS, even then)...but the mid to high 70's is very doable with the right set-up and driver. I know at the plant we ran 72-73 (light load) consistantly with the set-up we ship at. So some of you expert set-up guys I am sure can pull some mph's from somewhere.

Like I have said before, being from the north, we take comfort over speed any day.

Thanks George.
