my new boat from the factory

OK so if this did actually happen, someone has owned up to it and is making good on it. Unfortunate situation, but mistakes do happen.

MERCURY NUT, I know this is a disappointment. I know the old saying were all human, so were going to make mistakes isn’t going to make things any different. I too ordered my rig for the same reason you did, hoping no one in my area would have the same colors and details. After thinking about your situation, yes it would be a little depressing knowing my creation will go to someone else. I will also say that we all know this was a simple mistake that has probably happened before!! We can also say this is one of the few mistakes made by the best boat manufacturer in the world. Imagine the embarrassment!!! That being said, I could deal with this knowing there was no intent and that BCB’s will make it right, no matter what!!! Dude, it’s going to be okay!! One thing for sure, you will always know you are the creator of two beautiful Cats!!!!!!!!

First off, welcome to the board and congrats on you ordering a new boat. You are going to LOVE it.

Something else that is worth thinking about…BCB has been around for 37 years and if you sit down and think about it unless it is a new color that they have never produced in the past (these are rarely released, but it does happen) the odds of your boat being the only one out there is VERY slim.

I also have tried to come up with some more unique colors on my last 3 boats but the last 2 I had people shoot me emails or call asking for the color codes and if I minded if they copied it. Look at it as a form of flattery that someone would want the same color boat you picked.

Sounds like BCB is getting you fixed up…accidents happen and what separates BCB from the other manufacturers is how they handle it, first off they admitted it here and that in itself is unique for this day and age.

Actually, the dealership is where we prefer the individual to go to, which is what he actually did. Though the dealership only knew of the delay, not the moving up of the initial order. There probably was not an easy way to get the answer he was after. So he got it the best way possible.

We try to not release information concerning loads and shipments directly to the ultimate consumer, as the dealership has more obstacles to get the boat prepped and completed, plus scheduling other boats for deliveries, and receipt of completed loads to minimize freight charges. Thus the logistics on the other ends we are not familiar with.

In the past we have given a shipment date and had a new boat owner wondering why the dealer did not have time to prep his one boat for delivery, when there were others ahead of him. We try to minimize that issue. So please contact your dealerships and we will do our best to coordinate the deliveries with them.

Mercury Nut, despite the temporary mix up, welcome to the best boat and best boat company around! I just an ’07 Cougar FTD which has the same hull you are getting. Trust me. You are going to LOVE that boat and what few fishing friends you have who can even keep up close enough to see you, will think it is awesome looking…………………………..from behind!
