That is a great color combo. Striking is exactly how I would describe it too! Good luck with your sale

What a rig, such a clean paint job.

[@rodhendi459]

Beauty, wish I hadnt just dropped a new SHO on the back of mine. This is a really good deal.

[@MarshallLanier-oi1mk]

A friend of mine has an older Pantera II that's not necessarily the fastest thing on the water (mid-upper 60s), but it's one of the driest, most comfortable boats I've ever been in.

[@KenSmithFishing]

First new boat I ever rode in was the original Pantera, it was something special!

[@slimquinn5692]

That’s a great deal

[@KenSmithFishing]

Thanks Slim

[@timroyall6513]

So when do we get to see the new Cat? I don't know how much faster one would want a boat to be, but upper 70's is way too much for me. Congrats on a new Cat!

[@KenSmithFishing]

Looks like 3 or 4 weeks out

[@lestribble9810]

Are you going to do the bass boat search again? I really enjoyed that series.

[@KenSmithFishing]

I've thought about revisiting the search and it may be something I undertake next year. Most manufacturers, either because of the search or otherwise have greatly upgraded options, so they would all score somewhat better unless I just raised the bar. But it might be really fun to do with no intention of changing boats, just to review, especially with the new boats to market...

[@lestribble9810]

@@KenSmithFishing i’m liking the looks of that new caracal and would be interested in hearing your thoughts on that. I like the deck, layout much better than a puma.

Caracal STS review would be awesome!!! 🎉🎉🎉

Ken, what type and size batteries does the boat have?

[@mikethetoolman8776]

puma sts next up???

[@alanmcnally7268]

Ken Were you not fishing with 2 garmins on the bow and different modes? ( could be wrong ) Boat Review: can u follow your guidelines and regrade the bass cat? (Now that you have own the boat for a year)Failures?bolts , falling off, switches, boxes, etc. Thanks as always Great looking ship! would love to own it

[@KenSmithFishing]

Alan, yes I did, but the second Garmin was a borrowed unit, so I didn't own it to sell with and frankly not sure I'll do that again. If I regraded the boat it would actually go up, it was faster than I thought, and a better rough water boat than I thought. The build has been amazing, the only thing that went wrong with the boat is one of the retractable rod holders just failed, so I just spent $27 on a new one because it was out of warranty, and the new boats have a different style. Unlike some unmentioned previous brands I've owned no rub-rail issues, no edge of carpet issues, no bolts and screws falling out, and most importantly no dang electronic control pad failures. I'm not trying to be a Cat homeboy, and frankly I have been approached by some other brands and you can probably imagine what a coup it might have been for me to change brands after one Bass Cat, but I did this search to find the best boat I could find, not the best boat deal and that's, in my opinion, what I found....so I ordered another Bass Cat

[@jaysonsetzer2287]

Going with another Lynx or moving to a Puma STS?

[@MarshallLanier-oi1mk]

Looks like a batmobile with the windshields on

[@KenSmithFishing]

He did have a sweet boat

[@lancemabry6707]

Before I email you sir, is there a marina around there that sells a different brand of motor?? Also I know it handles well in big water but does it ride as good as let’s say your Ranger? Don’t care about speed I want comfort. Hope all is well with the family Ken!

[@KenSmithFishing]

Lance I’m not sure what you are asking?

[@dansherwood9851]

As soon as my 2010 Triton sells for $65k I’m callin ya…

[@macking4942]

Falcon F20 or F21

[@stevebrockman6713]

Which model are you going to since they discontinued the Lynx??

[@KenSmithFishing]

Puma STS

[@stevetentler1925]

Ken, what brand transom saver do you have?

[@KenSmithFishing]

The DD26

[@stevetentler1925]

Thanks Ken

[@danhilton3736]

how much are youselling it for?

[@KenSmithFishing]

$75k

[@amasaisamaliejones6253]

Are you going to get the same boat next year Ken?

[@KenSmithFishing]

The Lynx is currently "not available", I think Rick may be tinkering again like he did in 2020, so I am going to try the Puma STS, but if the Lynx were currently available I would have ordered another.

[@jersey4755]

Has it been sold?

He’s coming to get in a week!

yep, 135

[@paulkimble6223]

Why sell a boat that’s only 2 years old?

[@KenSmithFishing]

Paul, I've swapped boats at least every 2 years for many years. If you can get in them right you can do that without getting too far into your pocketbook.

[@glennboone7832]

I wish 😂

[@moncorp1]

Bass boats now cost as much as my first house.

[@glennboone7832]

Yep I bought my house and an acre for 30 K. Now a truck costs twice that too. This boat really is a great deal and fine as wine. If I win the lottery I’m headed that way but I’m sure it’s sold already.

[@KenSmithFishing]

Actually more than my first two houses combined....but I am old!@@moncorp1

[@DHW448]

I'm looking forward to seeing your new boat. I am interested in that model also. Mostly, how many rods can hold BC & spinning. And if the lockers are truly waterproof. I hope it's everything we both think it is. Ha.
