Anyone know of any for sale? I understand they are difficult to find, but appreciate any help.

There were really several built, though they are hard to find used. They were built on a joint venture from another Arkansas company and it was a breif affiliation. The hulls were built off premises and finished at BCB. These are your options.V15V16V17V18A16 A17A18A18WBCBLast edited by Bass Cat Boats on April 9th, 2010, 11:30 pm, edited 1 time in total.

appreciate it BCB, would love to find a used one! From what I understand, they have the heaviest guage aluminum available.

They are .100 in a 5052 aluminum, and are also welded with 5052 for similar tension. You can go more thick on the gauge, though they were more than similar boats they competed with at the time. The latter boats are all similar in thickness. BCB

10 years or more since I saw one, and I still have never seen an aluminum bass boat with as nice a console– all fiberglass and either in raspberry or blueberry metal flake. Even though other aluminum bass boat manufacturers have made dramatic improvements in recent years, they still dont have the polish and functionality of those consoles from the BCB aluminum boats. Imshifti3– something tells me if you see one pop up on the “for sale” forum on here, youll be competing with a lot of guys to snatch it up (maybe even with me!)Cheers,Scott
