Gotta question for you about the Squeezukies.

Are they made by Suzuki or are they a branded engine from another
manufacturer?

The reason I ask is that I ran into a really nice ten year old Bass
Cat Sabre in mint condition that has been repowered with a Suzuki DF
175 - price is right, it's in really great condition and the engine
only has 30 hours on it - two years old.

How about parts? There are a few dealers around my area all within 30
miles or so, so I can get it serviced if necessary.

I just don't know a lot about the brand - I'll admit it.

Bass Cats are my favorite bass boat. Rock solid.

Damn straight.

Back when I was active on the New England amateur trail, I had a Bass
Cat Sabre - loved that boat.

And, to really tell the truth, you couldn't ask for a better bunch of
people from Rick Pierce on down to the factory guys - wonderful group
of concerned and involved business owners.

I had a problem with that Sabre - one of the thru-hull fittings leaked
internally - I'd pickup 5/6 gallons of water every couple of hours in
the hull. *Apparently the supplier of the parts sent some flawed
fittings and pipe which wasn't caught immediately. Bass Cat sent a guy
up from the factory, picked up the boat, towed it back - two days
later there was a brand new Sabre in my driveway because they didn't
have time to fix the boat I had, so they swapped the engine out and
sent me a new boat. Shortly after that the dealer I bought the boat
from went out of business, but Bass Cat stood behind the boat 100%.

You can't ask for better service than that.

You know, why the hell am I looking at any other kind of boat?

Screw this - I'm buying a Bass Cat. *:)- Hide quoted text -

I don't blame you. Friend has one, and we were fishing under docks for
spotted bass, there were three of us. All three on the same side of
the boat leaning towards docks and that thing stayed damn near flat in
the water. For a true bass boat that thing rides well, and is solid.
They thought of everything for the fisherman too.
