stability check

We put our boats through various tests on local lakes to check for stability, handling at different speeds, and for comfort.
After successfully completing our rigorous testing, our boats were tested and fully approved by the US Coast Guard (USCG)
We tested the boats with a 15 hp motor. The Coast Guard approved the design using a 1973 regulation that set the standard for up to a 6 hp motor.
No worries about tipping or sinking. The USCG couldn't sink it with a 1,500 lb steel block sitting in the bottom of it. 
Our boats are constructed with 100% fiberglass, ensuring both safety and durability, as no wood products are used. 
All LED lighting is USCG approved, ensuring the highest quality and safety standards for any marine application. 
Our marine-quality flooring products are designed and tested for use in all marine applications, providing exceptional durability and performance.

United States Coast Guard (USGS) Tested and Approved

The Bass Bandit boat is a very reliable small water craft and has been accredited by the United States Coast Guard. After the Bass Bandits initial pool test was completed, it surprised the USCG employees by showing its remarkable capabilities. The Bandits successful testing then brought forth some comparative and startling stories. They shared examples of how some new designed boats had encountered major issues with the pool test. That once the #1500 weight was placed into the vessel, they heard excessive noises, witnessed structural catastrophes, and even watched sinking or tipping over boats during their first pool test, while the Bass Bandit initially excelled in all aspects. 

This endorsement from the Coast Guard serves as further testament to the exceptional quality and design of the Bass Bandit boat. Its durability, stability, and state-of-the-art features for a 9 foot long - one-man boat, makes it a top choice for small water use. Rest assured that with the Bass Bandit, you are not only getting a boat that is approved by the Coast Guard, but also one that surpasses industry standards for small boats.

Steve is the innovative creator of this quality built one-person fishing/pleasure boat. Not only does Steve refuse to take shortcuts in his work, but he also goes above and beyond to ensure that his boats are built with the utmost quality and safety standards in mind.  Steve's passion for fishing led him to design a water craft that delivers the best choice for the ultimate water fun experience. His impressive craftsmanship and attention to detail makes him a true leader in the marine industry, setting a new standard for quality construction in each boat that is created.

The story behind the creation of the Bass Bandit Boat was the result of a simple conversation between two brothers while fishing along side each other, in separate and expensive boats. During that time together, one brother noticed a gap in the boat market - a need for a smaller, more versatile type fishing boat. So, Steve, after a considerable amount of convincing, saw the potential in this idea and decided to move forward with it. For the next two years, he dedicated his time and resources into perfecting a design that would meet the needs and wants of avid boating and fishermen. This would give people an inexpensive option in boats. Whether you're a professional angler or simply enjoy a day on the water, the Bass Bandit Boat could be a game changer.
