WOW, That is really nice.  Tell us all about it.  We need details.


caddyjoe77

Thanks Bud, and yes you cannot hide.  Especially when its king kong at your door with a boat behind the delivery truck. 

2018 21 PHX (21' 6")
Merc Verado 250 Pro
Galaxy mist, silver, maroon pin striping with dual color upgrade (interior is silver instead of the normal white gel)
2 bird Helix 12's
Ultrex 112 -- wow, this thing is crazy good
power pole 8 blades
ordered the dual console -- be here in 6 - 8 weeks
4 by 15 charger
bobs hydraulic plate
padded front deck (this is a real back saver)
ridiculous storage -- the center console LMG would fit in -- no joke

still breaking her in but I am out of the super restrictive break in.  This thing SCOOTS.  Fastest to 65 ive ever been in a boat -- going to have some prop roulette coming up I am sure.  from 40 or so to 62 is nuts. 

the ride is incredible too.  cuts right through the waves -- even the long ones that come at an angle.  Best riding boat i have ever been in---bar none

dealer was absolutely awesome to work with.

Amazon's pricing on fishing tackle and gear is unorthodox to say the least. I see reels on there for good prices (Daiwa Fuego CT for $75) and then I'll see another listing for the same reel and it's x5 more expensive. You might find a gem or two but you'll be weeding through dozens and dozens of wacko offerings. Not to mention their review systems is deeeeeeeeply flawed.

it's without a doubt my go-to - Kijiji is a pretty good too. I found a used TD Zillion 100ha for $125, debating on pulling the trigger on that instead of a Fuego or Tatula CT. I know you like the Type R, but the extra bearings, and racing red aren't enough for me to pony up an extra $60. I looked into the new Tatula 150 but what I gather, no MagForceZ, just MagForce, longer handle and more aesthetic upgrades. I think I'd rather find a deeply discounted HD 200 and spend the cash on baits.

Go for the TD Zillion. Well worth every penny.

Gold spool? The H model eh? Nice grab. Got an H myself, but its got IP68 gears in it. Lots of customizing and tuning abilities.
