Ok here is my first discussion topic on the site and I am taking a different angle. I was just recently reading an article in Bass Times about the new Yamaha SHO. I have a TR20X with a Yamaha 225 HPDI, so of course I was interested. Well the article goes along and decribes that Skeeter and built a boat specifically for this new motor. So the list price of this new 21ft Skeeter FX 21 with a 250SHO was $70K
What??? What??? I mean come on really??? In this economy? I will confess that I have been blessed beyond belief and could swing it if I wanted to.... But really, Y in the heck would I want to drop that. I mean I am still fishing in my 2004 because I do not want to pay $45K for a new one.. Am I out in left field here. I am an admitted fishing junky. I have more tackle than I could ever use, but $70K for a Bass boat. Can you see why the fishing industry seems to be in a slump...
I saw a post earlier that stated the Elite Series should be renamed the Financial Elite Series. Is this how it was when you were growing up? What kind of changes do you think can save what we love to do so much? Thoughts?
