I picked up my 2015 Larson 2020FX from Jimmy Bell two weeks ago. Took it up to my cabin on LOTW last Thrusday and ran it all weekend. I can say without a doubt I am very pleased with the purchase. Jimmy ran the boat on a few walleye tournaments and is part of the Larson design team. The boat came fully rigged with the following:

2014 250 Yamaha Four Stroke
2014 9.9 Yamaha Four Stroke
36 volt Fortrexx on the bow
36 volt Engine Mounted Trolling motor
2 X Humminbird 1199's (one on console, one on the bow)

I added Smooth Move Ultra seat bases.

The boat sits low to the water but really handles rough water nice. Its not a fiberglass boat, but built with their VEC Technology (you tube it). For the price and fit and finish I feel this is one of the best big water boats built. My freinds Doug, Ray, Bill and Joe that fished with me last weekend I believe agree.

Also - Jimmy has one more boat for sale. Pretty much rigged the same

Steve Worrall was able to compress the images and load them for me.

Can you get the carpet inserts to cover all of the decking?

Yes you can. But what they did for the boat was put down anti fatigue mating on the front and rear decks. Its an adhesive backed material. You cant see it in the photo, but its awesome. And non slip.

The seats look to comfy to stand and cast. Lol. Looks like a pretty sweet boat. Nice purchase.

I fished in Dan's boat last week, and it is a great muskie hull. I liked it more than my Ranger 620. Nice boat for a great price.

I think the base price is smewhere between 53 to 55k. Depending on the outboard.

The rear deck is not that big. Maybe three feet across. Currently they do not offer an extension.

I have two bad knees, and two bad feet. They both have big time arthritis. The back deck is good enough for me without any problems whatsoever. The boat rocks! I just ran The Angle on Lake of the Woods In my Ranger 620, and the ride in the Larson put it to shame. The Larson is a great boat. If I needed another boat, it would be this Larson.

Very nice boat. Ride was great. Fished on the back deck and at age 75 it was just fine. Almost caught a muskie two times, that's the way the muskies go. Boat was great. Hope to ride in it several times more.
