What's up on that new mud buddy with reverse that was supposed to be coming out The motors were to be released in Aug. Unfortunately the owner of MB had to be by his wife's side thru the spring and summer (unfortunately she lost her battle with cancer) and contractors did not get done what needed to get done. Once he re-engaged with the project the first batch of castings were bad so he rejected all of them and had them re-pour. Spoke with factory the other day and assy is to begin in a couple weeks. They are just waiting on 2 more components. I have personally run the Sport V ( vertical edition) proto down in La back in July and I can say it is a pretty sweet setup. It is basically an outboard with 4X4 capability. Shifts in and out of forw and rev just like an outboard. The shift lever is on the tiller arm just just like an outboard. We ran thick veg and mud in forward and reverse and it performed great. The new prop ( The Hammer) will be something all short tail owners will really enjoy. It hooks up great and launches you out of the hole with a smidge more top end to boot. Guys that were on the order list should start getting their motors prolly early to mid Nov. This includes those that ordered the Sport H ( horiz edition) as well. Sport V

Cool. Haven't been there in years since I moved to Austin. All they ever had was the crappy Grizzlys. But I'll be in that area in a couple weeks. I'm always like looking at boats.

does basspro carry Gator Trax boats now??? Yes there are certain Bass Pro's that carry G Trax boats. The store in Grapevine is the "local dealer" for a 50 mile radius around the store. Any of you guys in centex or east Texas that are interested in a G Trax or a MB give me a shout. I be you man I will have one of the new Sport H's to demo soon.

Rest assured, myself and many other dealers were not happy with the decision. But Bass Pro insisted that it be put in the contract that they did not have to compete with any local dealers for the business. So Big busines won out

No they dont have anyone to take you out on a demo, But I took some guys out this year and One guy that is well known on this forum ended up buying one from Kent this year.

No they do not do demo's and no they don't have anyone on staff that knows the carb from the driveshaft. Was up there this summerat Great Wolf Lodge with the fam and we walked over the BP so the kids could see the mounts and fish. I posed as just a regular customer interested in a rig. I was asking questions and both sales associates " trying" to help me would just look at each other with a stupid look on their face. As a dealer for both G Trax and MB I was floored! This seems to be the same situation at all BP's as other dealers around their other stores all feel the same. The will sell ya a rig ( without demo'n first mind you) but good luck with any work you may need in the future on the motor.

Dont take this personaly but there is a guy that lives in the area that is/was a dealer for gt and mb. He was probably one of the first 5 people in all of tx to own one of the new shorttails when they came out. Hell I know for a fact he drove back and forth to loisiana picking up boat and motors that he sold. He can breakdown the entire rig from airfilter to prop. If anyone should be up there at bps it's him. I'm gonna add this, if your gonna spend the kind of moneythese rigs cost you might wanna ask where the service centers are in the event you need repairs.

Not taken personally at all.. But if you feel that strong about it then call the owner of GTB and tell him that. I'm just rep.ing thats all,not trying to take any food out of any guys mouth.
