    Bass and Walleye Boats Mag...Triton boats!

    Has anyone seen the latest BWB mag? The cover article is for the Triton Tr-21 that is used in the latest BASS classic . I was looking briefly through the pages to get the specs...speed, wieght, prop, etc. when I saw the price $65,000!!!! OH MY GOD! Who in there right mind would pay 65g's? They don't call em GEEES for nothing. I guess I have lost respect for those Triton guys. They are crazier than I thought!

    Who's crazier, the person who sells it for $65k, or the one who buys it??? Food for thought - They couldn't sell em for that if no one would buy em.

    People will pay a lot of $$ to look like a Pro... Completely nowhere near worth it in My opinion, especially as fast as boats depreciate... Hell if they'll pay that $, there's gonna be someone who will sell it for that $$...

    Well I tell you what I never understood, a boat sells for X dollars with a 200 EFI, but stick an Opti on it, or the Pro XS and the price goes up 10k. What the heck?

    What makes it where boats like that can be purchased is the financing. 10 years, 65k, thats not to bad considering a new truck costs about the same payment wise.

    For 65K, all I got to say is not only will it haul a$$, but it will get good mileage too.

    And my sport will look good, haul ass, and get pretty decent mileage for about 60k less.
