Interior and Accessories
The 2024 Bass Cat Jaguar STS is an excellent fishing platform that is designed to provide you with a great experience on the water. Performance is never an issue, and you can expect to fish in comfort whether you are gone for a few hours or many hours. There is enough deck space for two to four people.
Starting with the most important person, the captain, you will find that the console is designed with you in mind. It is a flush-mounted 12-inch multifunction display. Everything you need is right at your fingertips from engine data to GPS charts and positioning.
Driving is a breeze with the tilt hydraulic steering that allows you to maneuver around on the water without much effort.
The two plush, high-back seats at the console are designed for premium comfort for short and long trips. You will not find yourself fatigued in these chairs. Between the two seats is a two-tier center console that also doubles as a step to get you to and from the aft deck. Inside that step is a glove box and cooler.
One of the nice features you will find throughout the Jaguar STS is the soft-close seals and slam latches which reduce noise and seal perfectly.
As we mentioned, this boat is made for anglers and you will find built-in rod ramps, large center locker, starboard gunwales, and a general storage locker throughout.
The aft deck features triangular livewells that are perfectly aerated and designed so that they do not slosh around while you are out on the water. You will find that the livewells maintain balance no matter how quickly you are moving. Behind the livewells you will find triangular storage boxes with additional dry storage on each side.
Construction of the 2024 Bass Cat Jaguar STS
Bass Cat Boats is known for their superior construction and each boat is made to be perfect. The manufacturer stands behind EVERY boat that they construct and each boat features innovation with a guarantee to be revolutionary.
When you purchase the 2024 Bass Cat Jaguar STS, you can expect your boat to have a high-quality gelcoat finish that provides a flawless look from clean lines to a deep and rich finish.
The superiority of Bass Cat Boats does not stop there either. Each boat is constructed with a full-width transom to ensure complete support, handleability, and stability on both calm and rough waters.
Additionally, the one-piece hull assembly is truly a one-piece and not like others that simply say one piece and do not know what that entails. Bass Cat Boats create custom one-piece assemblies that bond together the transom, hull, floor, and stringer assembly. By bonding these pieces together, you, as the boater, get the benefit of a durable and strong boat.
As each boat is crafted, the quality control team constantly monitors the process to ensure that every boat looks phenomenal. They pay close attention to all the details and leave nothing out.
Engine
Speed is never a concern when it comes to the 2024 Bass Cat Jaguar STS and if you are a speed seeker, then this may be the right boat for you.
The Jaguar STS is equipped with a Mercury Racing 500R outboard. The 500R motors provide you with 500 horsepower to propel you across the water at amazing speeds. You can easily hit upwards of 90 miles per hour in no time.
While the Jaguar STS is speedy on the water, the speed and power does not hinder the stability of the boat. You can remain confident and in control, even at higher speeds.
Should you find yourself wanting a tamer option, the Jaguar STS does have additional engine configuration options starting at just 250 horsepower.
