I’m a fan of the brand. But they are or have been until recently using the same damn glovebox since the 80s. I'm sure the boys in Mountain Home are like, well if ain't broke, don't fix it. But it is really ugly and they've gotten over 20 yrs of good use out of that plastic mold - time to update the look fellas.

And that triangle on the back deck where the motor vitals are connected needs to be squared off. It is a tripping hazard especially with sandals. I’m speaking from a non boater standpoint obviously.

I might add same with the hinge pins on the back deck - I like that the entire cover can lay over flat and you can even remove it. However, having raised hinge pins is a hazard on the back deck. And forget about fishing in bare feet because you won't want to step on one after 11 am. They need to come up with a different design for those two areas of concern in my opinion.

But I do like the product but they’ve never asked me to participate in a round table on product development unfortunately.

The things that you are posting as negatives actually have me thinking this is going to be my brand. I see the ability to access pumps and batteries easily as someone who actually fishes and has had old boats thinking about the things that go out a few years down the road. I have to stand on my head to do anything to my current boat, I really appreciate those simple and thoughtful features on this boat.

They don't just sit around and hope people will keep buying the same thing!

Looks like an air conditioning vent in the middle of the floor.

Innovative is not just changing the configuration of your deck layout, which frankly I think is horrible. I have several friends with Cats, and I will say, they do build a good boat with outstanding customer service. But its just not for me. I still think its one of the ugliest boats on the market and front deck fishability is not that great.

I bet the a// end of my Bass Cat is ugly, when that's the only thing you see when we pass you.
