Hello all,
I am looking into my boating future (hopefully within the next year or two) and debating on selling my fish and ski and getting something else.
As I look through boats, I would have never thought of buying new, but the Bass Cat Margay has caught my eye.
I fish all east TN waters. For the most part they are pretty calm (except when the wakeboarders zoom by).
I believe the 17' 7" boat with a 150 would fit my needs well. I fish a lot alone, sometimes with a partner. I don't foresee myself becoming a tournament fisher.
I fish mostly to get away from work, and to catch some dinner from time to time (crappie).
Does this boat sound like it would fit my needs well? I have a garage I can store in with a 8' tall by 9' wide door and it is over 20' deep -- I don't foresee any garage issues (my current 19' fish and ski fits in there at an angle).
It looks like it would have plenty of rod storage, and the compartments were thought out well. The wide front deck is also appealing. That is something I really don't have with my current fish and ski.
I assume you can have the outboard of your choice if you ordered the boat? I would have a hard time deciding between the Evinrude G2 150HO and the Mercury Pro Xs 150 4 stroke...
