Skeeter, Phoenix, Ranger, Pro-Craft......owned them all. Have never had to fold bigger fish to get them to fit in a livewell.
I'm just still trying to figure out how a triangle holds more water than a rectangle/square. Its basically half the size. The livewell would have to be double the depth to account for that. The triangular livewell has always intrigued me since you guys came out with it. I'm sure there's a science to it that BCB came up with to design it. But not sure what science there is to say a triangle will produce better fish care than a rectangle/square.

Don't forget to add VT-2 livewell vents to your BassCat or for that matter for any boat
Note: I added this so Allison1 won't cry anymore

I want to say that they actually hold less water than most boat brands. I know that the newer skeeters have a removable divider to make it one big livewell.

Yes, 2 triangles that form 1 larger triangle with divider. Just like other boats that have 2 rectangle/square that form 1 larger rectangle/square with divider.
