And is it a comfortable reach? Im 6ft and I assume the answer would be yes. I keep reading about the TM pedal being very far forward which some dont like; scared of losing balance and falling out, (why not lean on the pro seat?), etc, etc.. I dont have access to climb around in or even see one of the Basscat models in person in my area. Tough to commit to buy a new one, or drive a few hundred miles to look at a slightly used one.Im considering a Sabre FTD, P2, or 618 and 619 Phoenix, and would prefer a slightly used (less than 2 years old) one with warranty over new, but havent ruled out new yet. My local Basscat dealer within walking distance does not have any in stock, and wont have any for a couple of months or more waiting on the 15 models. Id really like to ride, drive, or fish out of one, or at least climb around in one of these Basscat models in the showroom to get a feel of whether Id like the feel and layout. Ive got to climb around in a Phoenix all I want to get a feel of the layout, and that dealer has even offered to take me out and let me drive it. I dont have that opportunity in a Basscat. Im not knocking the Basscat dealer at all, and hes been very nice the couple of times Ive talked to him, but he said he did not normally demo any of his boats, although its only 5 miles to the lake.I guess I could be patient and wait a few months, but am beginning to get anxious to purchase a boat, but I want to make sure I make the right decision, as this will be my last boat purchase. Im not kidding! I purchased my last new one 22 years ago, and am 55 now.
