Never had an issue getting in touch are getting a call back. Basscat For my opinion is excellent all around. Running a puma 250 proxs

[@bassinpassion9313]

Can’t believe they didn’t get back with you.Customer service is second to none.Always get back to me,send me twice as much when I order.Too notch boat and company.Customer service is the best.

[@carlbraucht5542]

Basscat does take pride in there customer service I have half my tournament trail running basscat and they have never had a problem with service and yes, they give you a jacket with your name on it when you purchase one

[@mikeharris130]

2016 Puma/250 SHO. Best boat I have ever owned and I have owned all the major brands including a previous BassCat. Never had any issues with the boat, so no contact with factory needed. I have ordered extra stuff several times from parts and always a great experience. I have met Rick several times over the years and he always remembers my name and my BBC "handle" as well. Unless something unforeseen happens, I will purchase another one next year (2022).

[@kevinbrown6013]

Been running a Bass Cat for 12yrs. I’m on my 2nd 2020 Cougar SP. Note the 2020s SP’s were 3k cheaper than the 2021 models. Glad I got mine last year.

[@joshystenes8284]

Basscat wins awards every year for best customer service. I have called them numerous times and they have always taken care of me immediately. Rick Pierce the owner also writes a hand writen letter to every person that buys a new cat and sends them a jacket with their name on it and a hat. If you go on the forums everyone raves about their customer service and that was one of the reasons they were at the top of the list when I was shopping. Allen in the parts department is also top notch. Helped me immediately the few times I have called even tho my boats not new

Thank you Team marine, great job on the review of the Puma FTD , please do a review on the Pantera classic .

[@midgebarker4022]

I love the pantera 2 & pantera classic. I'm on the low end of their lineup. My options & yours are different for economic reasons. Good to see a over/under on bc boats. Lots of them in my area. Love the content.

[@TeamMarineService]

The Pantera II is one of our favorite rigs for the price! Hard to beat it!!

[@Irishmule169]

Love my P2…!

[@danlaur7973]

BassCat is a quality boat, no cheap plastic dashes, no cheap locker lid hardware, 24oz carpet, & trailers are made by BassCat

[@rickpurcell4920]

I’ve had BassCat since 1994, a 1995 Pantera which I still have and still looks great. I also have a 2018 Cougar. I have found that their customer service is as exceptional as their boats are. Whether I call the main office or parts, or contact them on the BCB forum, they have always been very responsive. These days there are far fewer quality built boats, BassCat is at the top of the list.

[@mrxlh]

Another awesome review!!!

[@scottolson331]

No opinion about this but I have one about Andy made my first purchase with them today and guy is Gold no bullshit just honest and really took time to give me advice on how to do things without even trying to sell me the stuff Team Marine gets all my money until I run out. Katrina is a sweetie to. I know it sounds stupid but I can sleep knowing when I wreck my stuff these guys will take care of me, no price shopping needed. Thanks again guys.

[@mediaspeedfilms1334]

Basscat make a great boat, wish they would have contacted you back!

[@TeamMarineService]

They definitely do make a solid rig!

[@Hillhouse_Fishing]

Undervalued most solid boat out there and best customer service in the industry I have no idea why you were struggling getting a hold of someone they have a forum to ask questions are active on the basscat owners group on Facebook and have always answered my calls matter of fact I have a 93 pantera ll and called to ask about what display I had to replace it with the new touch pad and I got an answer within 2 minutes of being on the phone. I really hope that basscat will resolve this issue with you like I know they will. In my opinion it is the only boat to run. And I have a 93 Pll that runs low 70’s with a tournament load and a 93’ mariner 200 with a 23 fury 3 and that’s with 52 gallons of gas two people and live wells full. They definitely are undervalued

[@Irishmule169]

Call the man Allen at Bass Cat.. love my BCB !!

[@Hawk-iy2iz]

I have a 2022 Bass Cat Sabre with a 175 four stroke. In fact if you go to their website that is my boat does pictured under the Sabre. After raising the motor from the factory I have been able to get 69.5 out of my boat with another person and 3/4 tank of gas and all my tackle. This little boat is amazing

[@dubosce]

I’m running a 2007 BassCat Pantera II. Boat has aged well and very solidly built. This is my first fiberglass bass boat and I have made all the mistakes and she keeps going for me. My next boat purchase will be in the next 3 years and BassCat will definitely be one of my top 3 options. I have personally had very good customer service experiences replacing a windshield that I broke with a jig, and front eye that I drive into a dock. Very good people.

[@Hawk-iy2iz]

As a bass cat owner I’m here to tell you they’re one of the best customer service organizations in the country. And that is not because I drink Bass Cat. I have never dealt with the dealer and I’ve been able to deal with him directly with a single phone call so I don’t know how you’re saying they won’t answer the phone. But they do not allow you to order a customized boat directly throught them, that all goes through dealers from my understanding. But if you own one you will get serviced. I just had a wheel destroyed last weekend, nothing with bass cat was the problem, I called them and my new tire&wheel just showed up this morning. That was a phone call, me to them and no dealer. They are amazing and if you still question, just go to one of there OI's(owners inviation) and you will see the entire family. In fact in October lasy year at the OI, one of the boats staying where I was unloaded the boat and the bunk board broke off(old and roted). He call bass cat which was just up the road. They said they don't make those any more because they are old. They would have to get back to him. He told him that he was at the OI and couldn't load his boat. They took the mold out and made one that day to give to him. I don't think he even paid for that replacement. they are awesome.

[@TeamMarineService]

Great to hear!!!

[@austinkabat3123]

Hell yeah finally a bass cat vid

[@TeamMarineService]

😎👍🏻

[@waylonlevins]

My opinion... it’s exactly valued. Not over, not under. Basscat is currently the industry standard. The boat by which all others are judged. The 203 hybrid Puma/Cougar is the best rough water boat money on the market today. A 1999 Mountain Home 203 hull with a Basscat top cap, it’s freaking awesome!. It’s not a go fast boat, but it cuts though the waves damned near as good as the original Champion. What more could you ask for on a big lake like Sam Rayburn?

[@davidkeppler8851]

Would love to see Phoenix! Maybe 920 Elite or 21PHX

[@lenwoodsweatmanjr6970]

Please do a pheonix next!! Really enjoy the content!!👍👍👌

Hey Andy or Jordan, who ever watches the videos an gets back to the people supporting the channel. In 1999 the Basscat Pantera 2 was 33,995.00 with 200 Merc, the Charger 395 TF with Yamaha VMAX 3.1 OX66 for 26,999.00. I picked the Charger because I was told from a Guide on Lake Fork it had a Champion Hull. Is that True from yall's experience?

[@user-xm8rf6ik7b]

Nope they did not

[@stevemolina8801]

On my second Cat both are Pantera II Bought my 1st one from Sherms Marine in Indiana and the second from Boatmasters in Livermore Calif. on my first boat never had to call the shop but once I went and participated in a Warrior tournament and took two Marines fishing, well if you give a Marine a bowling ball he will do one of three things with it. break it, loose it or get it pregnant. Well they broke the frame to the folding I called the factory and told them what happened and expected to pay for it I was simply told Sounds like a warranty issue a frame will be on its way tomorrow. My current boat is a 19ft 2021 Panterra II and runs with tourney load low 70's and just me and all my stuff 75. I live in Ranger, Skeeter,Nitro ville. The Nitro dealer 20 minutes away, the ranger dealer 30 min away the skeeter dealer an hour away. Theres a reason I drove 7 hours one way to get my Cat.

[@alanwinge8775]

They should make one that is huge and can run that 600 Mercury v12 with the two speed transmission.

I have a puma and will never buy another brand of boat. it blows my mind overtime I'm out. I've called bass cat a few times, have only had to leave a message once and they got right back to me. also received a letter from mr. pierce when I joined quest. I can order any part I want for my 15 year old boat and have it shipped to my door, usually within a week.

[@matthewheld8577]

I agree with you on customer service..... These boats are more than my first started home in 1996. If you want me to spend that type of money on a new boat. You better call me. That’s not asking too much. I don’t mind dealers, but dealers don’t know everything; ie what can be added and or subtracted. Let’s say I’m KVD. You know he got a return call (immediately), probably from the owners conference room with his entire build and design team all with tongues hanging out. That’s how it should be with anyone willing to spend 80k on any boat brand. There are very few KVD’s in the world that will ever make a mark on a brand....but there are a lot of weekend no bodies that think they will be the next KVD and are willing to sell their body parts to be in a basscat or another high end boat. These are the people that are keeping your lights on, employees paid, feeding your family.

I’ve learned that you either love a bass cat or hate them. I personally don’t care for them. I’m sure they are great but I look at it and just say yuck in my head. Looks like a brand new old boat.

I’m pretty sure that the problem you have is yourself. You’re on an island with the complaint about customer service at BC. After watching you communicate I bet they think you are a prank caller.

You are 100% correct Jason! Hey....wait a minute...you aren't a BCB customer service rep are you?

Over priced too narrow of a boat for me

Over priced

[@DatGuy960]

Nope! Sorry....over-priced! 80k for that and no communication? Nope!
