2026 Bass Cat Pantera II

The 2026 Bass Cat Pantera II is a 19-foot bay boat built on a proven fiberglass hull design that has dominated bass fishing since 1988. The Pantera II combines efficiency and speed in a compact platform, running a single 200 HP engine paired with 43 gallons of fuel capacity to reach distant tournament waters. A Minn Kota Ultrex 80 trolling motor with remote steering and a removable 8-inch jackplate round out the propulsion package.

The layout centers on serious fishing capability. Dual rod lockers flank two storage compartments, with a raised deck that accommodates a front butt seat with pro pole, center and rear fold-down seats, and full rod organization including a port organizer and bungee straps. Both pump-in and pump-out livewells with aeration keep fish healthy. The cockpit includes an insulated ice chest, cup holder, and fully insulated deck lids.

Electronics and safety systems are comprehensive. The boat carries dual Humminbird Xplore 9 units (one CHO at the bow, one CMSI+ at the console) with a Solix SI transducer, an A1 Mercury single-channel graph, Quicksilver gauges, and an interactive digital switch panel. A 1000 GPH automatic bilge pump, foam-filled stringers, stainless steel ladder, and windscreen provide security and durability. Additional features include 28-ounce carpet, a 12-volt dash receptacle, dual USB ports, and a Pro Guide 3-bank charger.

The boat comes with an EZ Loader tandem-axle Tuff Coat trailer fitted with 15-inch wheels and includes a padded front deck and black Weathermax cover.
