If the 19ft Caracal stays do you think it will move from premium to advantage?

the 19’ is staying. There will be more info on it tomorrow I’m sure about the 19’. It obviously will be cheaper as an SP model.Originally Posted by lostone
I was hoping for a bare bones cut down Vision rig with a 250. . . I don’t see how this doesn’t directly compete with the Cougar, Caracal, and Puma STS models.

Good Morning,
As a non-facebook user ..... what did I miss!
Caracal STS.. same length as eyra rated up to 300. For under 50k... Just kidding... Probably 100k.
In this economy, that would make more sense... Add some models to the vision line instead of adding more 100k boats on an already crowded lineup with the eyra, cougar, widebody caracal).I was hoping for a bare bones cut down Vision rig with a 250. . . I don’t see how this doesn’t directly compete with the Cougar, Caracal, and Puma STS models.

With this new Caracal I could see them phasing out the old Caracal and the premium boats will only be 20 footers and bigger. If so they could then take the Pantera Classic and update it to an advantage model with some of the same characteristics of the 19 foot Caracal.
Looks like you got your wish ha
I would think they would phase out the lynx now that they have replaced the caracal. Both are wide running boats, add the sts with bigger motor allowance, what is the real purpose of owning the lynx. I have owned a lynx in the past. I dont think the Eyra is going anywhere from what i hear.
Yea, i don't see much need for the Lynx with the Puma STS only being an inch shorter and also being a wider body boat. If the Caracal will run as fast as an Eyra I don't see much need for the Eyra, but it has a very strong loyal following.
Yes sir! Just wish they would have left the layout exactly the same.
If this boat has any 202 ChampioN DNA in it, it will be one of the best riding boats ever made.
I agree. I have had a fair number of traditional layout bass boats over the years and I love the functional layout of my Caracal way more than any of them.
I have had a couple basscat and the Eyra is by far my favorite. It would hard for a caracal to hit the Eyra speeds though.
According to Rick it is right at 90 with the 300, that is very close to Eyra speeds and I believe he was being conservative as he said that he only made 1 pass with it.
How fast is it with a 250? High 70's? Talking about the new Caracal.

I can only dream if it was 50k or even 70k. For the time being, I'm more than happy with my PIV! Congratulations BCB on the new model!
Did Rick limit the hull again???????? I feel like this is a Eyra STS with the HP rating and if they limit the sped again....WHY?????

Hell Yeah!!!!!!!!
Yes and Yes I'm also talking about the new 20' 2" Caracal STS
Did you watch the video for the unveiling?
This hull has no Governor built in. Only the performance characteristics limit it.
Only the Hybrid 203 hull has any affiliation to those former 203 builds. No other hulls have any characteristics or changes from that hull.
