Bass Cats?
Hey all,
Its been a while since i've posted. This college stuff blows.. Anyway.. I'm looking to get a newer boat w/in a year and looking at rangers, skeeters, and i'm really interested in bass cats... How do they compare to one another... well just the ranger and skeeter to the bass cat.. How do bass cats handle 3+ ft waves? Any suggestions or things I should know... Any info would be great.. TIGHT LINES!!

i love my ranger and it handles rough water pretty well (zseries rangers suck on rough water though). i have been in a few boats that ride a little better than my ranger and in a lot of boats that rode worse. but the best riding boat i have ever been in is a basscat. and we ran wide open through 2 - 3 foot waves. whenever the time comes for a new boat i will look long and hard at a new basscat.

there are two of them in my club. one is a new puma and the other is a late 90's eyra and they both ride really good. the puma is probably my favorite boat on the water today.

There are a couple in my bass club too. Those guy are mainly Lake Saint Clair guys so they get to see a fair amount of rough water and they love their boats. Another guy in the club sold his for a newer Triton and said he wishes he kept the old Cat.

Hey future how ya ben???? Let me sum up the question on Bass Cats and are they worth it. If I where to go and buy a brand new boat that was mass produced I wouldnt even bother looking any fartther than the Bass Cat. They handle EVERYTHING with very good results. There logo of "Total Performance" is in fact the TOTAL TRUTH
