I believe BassCat is one and Triton is another. Yoy can check the out at their websites.

Jdaddy · May 12, 2008, 11:51:52 AM

I think most of the new model boats are no wood/no ply wood, I know Triton is one for sure .

Blazer went all composite during their 1999 model year production.

ProGators are all glass/composite and are hand laid, no chop.
10 year stump warranty makes it irresistible.

I took a tour of the Ranger plant last month and the tour guide said that Ranger is the only true all composite boat in production and that other boat manufactors that say they are all composite and not because they still have wood in the motor mounting area.

Allen Shadd · May 13, 2008, 11:25:34 AM

JB, if Ranger told you that, they lied to you. I can tell you that the boats named so far as being all composite in this thread are indeed all composite and wood free. I have pictures of my Blazer being built at the factory, before the top cap was joined to the hull. I can assure you there is no wood in my transom, or anywhere else in the build.

Been to the Legend Factory and have watched them build their boats, no wood not even a tiny bit.

BIGJOUSH · May 13, 2008, 12:07:17 PM

wish i could afford a legend, they are beautiful

My boat was a 2003 and as I stated before, there was NO wood in the construction.

was it a blazer

Allen Shadd · May 13, 2008, 12:51:05 PM

Dude, are you even reading this thread before you post more questions?? $:-\$ $:-\$ I stated in my posts already that my boat is a Blazer, and is composite. Nothing wrong with asking questions, but you might take the extra time to read the replies before you ask the same redundant question.

Nutt · May 13, 2008, 01:05:32 PM

Not 100% sure, but I think my Skeeter is wood free. At least thats what the salesman told me. A salesman wouldnt stretch the truth, would he?

Might want to just go have a

and find your smile not everyone here has the time to read every post and I'm sure it took you a lot longer to post what you did then a simple "yes I have a blazer"

BIGJOUSH · May 13, 2008, 01:36:26 PM

Tell you what.... why don't YOU go have that beer.

Never lost my smile. I was smiling when I just wrote this even. The man asked a question, I answered, along with others. The man asked me a question I had already answered, I answered it again. When he asked the question ONE MORE TIME that had already been answered, I figured he wasn't reading the answers to his own post or he wouldn't ask a question that had been answered on the forum for the third time, plus sending me pm's asking the same question again. If a person has the time to ask questions, they should also have the time to read the replies. Otherwise, they may as well be talking to themselves. Or, maybe you can answer the million dollar question(s) for the man.
