I'm seeing some nasty rumors that suggest BPS is killing off Stratos Boats. Some have suggested Stratos is hurting Nitro and Ranger sales because of price and performance.

I hadn't heard anything about it? We have a dealer here in town, I'll have to stop by and ask :-*

I've not heard anything but its not surprising.  We don't have many Stratos boats around here in Central Texas where I'm at.  There's a few early model as well few 2004 - 2009 Pro XLs 285's, 294's and couple 201's running around.  Nothing new though.

The nearest Stratos dealership is at the Main Cabela's up in Ft. Worth.

Saw a new 201 Evolution coming into SoHo as I was leaving last week. She was gorgeous! Even if the rumors turn out to be true, They remain a sought after ride.

For sure they are a great looking boat. I don't have any complaints about mine.   I've always liked Larry Nixon's 201 Pro.  It would be hard for me to buy a New Boat right now if I had the $$$.  There are so many choices out there.  But I would take a real hard look at the 201 Evolution  ;)
