For any Cabelas guys, just got off hold with customer service after a long wait, they said the boats should arrive at their warehouse June 15! And also that they'd send out emails once shipped...

Thank god man, I just want my boat lmao!!

I was a bit worried because cabelas said their boats were currently "out of stock" but I thinks there a limit on how many boats you can buy and that limit is probably how many are gonna be shipped. 

 

Edit: I ordered my bass raider on May 10th so my boat will definitely be in this collection that's in route to the warehouse probably yours aswell have no clue the status of the guys who ordered from bass pro.

Ooh didn't see that til now! Seems like a good thing that it says OOS, means they probably filled up their order from the manufacturer. 

 

Unless, of course, they oversold, then yikes

Doubt oversold, the boat is probably being sold as a backorder so they can get a count of how many boats need to be made and sent to cabelas then when the order is complete they'll bring it back and get another limit of orders and repeat I guess. IMO

[TriStateBassin106]

Boat isn't even popping up anymore on cabelas website, any word on when we could possibly see them again?

[oysterk]

Not sure haha, haven't you bought yours already?

[TriStateBassin106]

Yes, but I know someone who was interested in purchasing one, Guess i'll just send him over to bass pro since it's still on their website.

I can't keep track of who bought where, but I ordered from Bass Pro, and my latest date range is June 16-26.  Since Cabela's and Bass Pro are owned by the same company now, I am guessing we are all in the same boat (no pun intended).  This is crazy.  I ordered it May 3rd.  Their emails say the order will be canceled after 60 days, but they told me on the phone they won't cancel it.  If they do, I'll be ticked, because then I will have to reorder and be at the  back of the line again.

[Born 2 fish]

I ordered from bass pro also.

[TriStateBassin106]

Ordered mine May 10th, I agree. This is ridiculous, especially for us cabela guys... been in the dark since the end of may about the status of my boat. No emails or anything. 

[TriStateBassin106]

Just called cabelas, after a 30 minute wait I was put on the line with a very strange speaking individual named "tony" who almost sounded like a robot, the robot basically told me that cabelas hasn't gotten any word from Pelican about the restock date which is BS and then I was cutt off from the call, almost done deliberately, also what I was told is BS because others on this thread have called Cabelas customer service and they were told different things. 

 

If my boat ever comes. It will be the last thing I'll ever buy from these people, horrible customer service, Bass Pro should just sell off cabelas and use the money to expand their brand. 

 

Let's be honest here did Cabelas basically tell me to go _______ myself?

Hey Born 2 Fish, about an hour after my last post complaining, I got an email from Bass Pro that my boat shipped.  Hopefully yours is about to ship also, and maybe the Cabelas guys also, I hope.

[Born 2 fish]

That’s awesome your boat shipped hopefully mine will

be here soon.

[OG SmashSauce]

lol....I just bought mine last night from basspro with a date of june 16-29th or something and they literally just sent me an email saying its been delayed and the whole 60day cancellation thing.

Is something like this a must have with a trolling motor and these little boats?

[TriStateBassin106]

I would kill to be in your shoes you have no idea, I would be able to sleep easy knowing after a long wait my boat is on its way lmao

With the motor in the front, yes.  What happens without it is the back swings too far as you maneuver; you stop the trolling motor and the back still keeps swinging around.  With the rudder, the resistance it creates when you turn stops the back of the boat when you stop the motor.

 

It sounds like a pain, but it really makes a positive difference.
