Boat Hunter

IMO.. I have owned another brand and rode in just about all of them Bass Cat is the best boat on the water. They are great riding and very fast. They have excellent customer service and stand behind their product 100%. They offer a boat for everyone if you need a 20ft tourney rig that has tons of storage and wull run 75-80mph or if you want a smaller boat to just fish out of they cover the entire market. My favorite think about a Bass Cat is when im runnin in rough water i never wonder what bolts are backing out or what is working its was loose and i will ahve to fix when i get home. I use to always wonder in my old boat. Bass Cat thinks about what they are doing and what the baot will be put thru on the water. Bass Cats are the best IMO and one tough ride.

If you keep a boat for a long time like I do, BCB is the way to go. I do not know where you are, but I can show you my 1994 model pII and let you see how they hold up in the long run. Russell

I agree with Bass Cat on the part of drive every kind you are interested in before you purchase. Fact is I owned a Cobra, Ranger and a Bass Tron in my career. Some of my close friends I fish with have everything from a new Triton. New Skeeter and new Champion and I still look forward to being back in my Puma. This is my second Puma it is an 08 in mint condition. If the better half allows it I will be buying a new Puma Ftd in a few years. Everyone from the very top of the ladder being Ron Pierce and Rick Pierce all the way down to the guy that cuts the grass at there lot treats us all as we are all part of a big happy family. When you do your homework on a boat you should look at the overall picture. Every major boat brand I mentioned has been sold or traded at one point or another, Bass Cat is still owned by the very family that opened its doors. That speaks highly to me about the comitment they have made to this product. The most often heard complaints on here are of a guy that ordered a boat Monday and wants to know if it will be ready Friday. All boats now days are made with great products to some extent and I am not bashing anyone of them. Just do your home work before you decide. We are very biased as owners because we do know we own the very best boats on the market bar none . I would put my Puma up against any other ride on the market in any kind of weather. The following facts may be wrong but if memory serves me correctly then here they are: Ranger, Champion, and Stratos are now Genmar owned. Legend was made by the purchase of Hawk Cobra was designed by the same man that designed Champion and Hawk but failed to stay open. Bass Cat first built in in 1971 in a garage by Ron Pierce. He still comes to work there most everyday. Rick Pierce was born into this company and is still dedicated to expanding it . Says alot about the saying .When you buy a Bass Cat you are part of the family. My mistake Youngblood.

Bottom line is there is no “best boat ” made. It is all in the eyes of the beholder. I love my Puma. When I owned other brands, I loved them too. I dont have to justify to anyone why my boat is the “one” Do yourself a favor and go look and compare. If you buy a Cat, great if not, then that is your decision. In addition to building great looking and performing boats, BassCat is comitted to customer. If that is for you welcome to the family. If not, enjoy your purchase. If we all owned Cats, it would be pretty boring.
