Jim Baugh Outdoors TV is proud to announce our new marine
sponsor,
Tideline Catamaran Boats!
2017 marks our 29th year and we
have already began filming our 30th anniversary specials for 2018.
JBOTV will be featuring many programs highlighting the Tideline Cat as well as
factory tours and performance test.
Over the 30 years of producing outdoor television at times I
was a bit envious of my contemporaries Frank White of the Southern Sportsman
and Dr. Jim Wright of the High Hopes because at times they both featured large
catamarans. Our show was under various marine contractual obligations and the timing
was such that we just could not ever put a Cat sponsorship together. Well fortunately
in time things change and opportunities arise.
Our quest for a new marine sponsor took over six months and
we had talked with and reviewed product with over 10 boating manufactures. Suffice
to say, we found Tideline Boats right in our back yard, here in the mid
atlantic. Yes, they build boats and fish the same waters we do! The mid
atlantic also is an incredibly diverse aquatic geographical area from very
skinny water in the rivers and bays to the offshore canyon in 1500 to 10,000
feet of water. Finding one boat that can do it all is next to impossible,
unless we are talking about a Cat.
Two of the most important aspects of Tideline Boats are versatility
and construction build.
1)Versatility: No longer is there a need of having
two boats. For example the 235 Tideline catamaran has a draft of only 14 inches
and can handle skinny water as easily as any shallow draft bay or flats boat.
When it comes to offshore, this is where mono hulls run into trouble and
cataramans shine! There is simply no mono hull in a similar class size wise
that can outperform a cat hull in rough offshore seas.
In case you are not that familiar with
boating and you ever wondered what those bean bag chairs are for sitting in the
back of that $800,000 32 foot center console??? Well, they are there so you don’t
shatter or herniate your L4 disk. That’s right, these boats will snap your back
like a pretzel. Spend close to a million bucks on your new boat and guess what,
you still have to stop by Wallyworld and buy bean bag chairs in order to avoid
back surgery. So when you do order your Tideline Catamaran, bean bags are not necessary.
Catamarans are simply the softest ride in
the world due to their design. The actual basic design of the cat has been
around since the seafaring Polynesians. In history only one mono hull had a
larger claim to fame and that was Noahs Ark.
2)Build Quality: Tideline Boats are custom boats
that are made to order built one at a time by experienced marine craftsmen that
use the highest quality standards and materials throughout the build process.
These hulls are not hand laid, they are built with state of the art advanced vacuum
infused resign technology making for a stronger and lighter boat. There is just
no better way to produce the perfect fiberglass hull.
In addition to the strength and superior
quality of the fiberglass, the hull and deck of each Tideline Boat are glassed
together in addition to being thru-bolted. Each hull is also glassed to an
internal composite stringer grid, which adds additional strength to the final
structure. While most mass produced boats have consoles and leaning posts that
are screwed to the deck of the boat, the console and leaning post of a Tideline
are glassed to the deck. So in essence, each Tideline Boat is one solid fiberglass
part and is as durable and as overbuilt as a boat can be. In addition to the
strength and durability that this process provides, it gives the boat a much
cleaner appearance and a look that is only found in the highest quality custom
built boats.
If you look at the electrical system on
most assembly line mass production boats, you will see where cost are cut and
little attention to design. Only in very expensive boats do you see very accessible
smartly laid out easily maintainable electrical systems. Again, here is where
Tideline shines by crafting top quality professionally laid out rugged and
easily maintainable electrical systems.
Experience counts! Tideline Boats are built by some of the
finest, most experienced craftsmen in the industry. Production managers Doug
and Carlton Layton have over 55 years of experience between them, with Carlton
previously having 20 years with Albemarle Sportfishing Boats where he was in
charge of production.
Factory Direct- Built to Order
Each Tideline Boat is built to order.This means each customer can design their
boat exactly as they want it, rather than accepting whatever boat the dealer has
in inventory. The Tideline team will
work with you through the purchasing process and through the build process to
ensure that the boat you are buying is the right boat for you and your needs.
Also every Tideline comes with a 10 year transferrable warranty.
Tideline custom built boats from the 235 Hybrid to the 360
offshore offer unparalleled quality and versatility that keeps the value of
your investment up. Each boat is made to order and while build times can vary,
overall once ordered the boats are approximately 5 months out, so contact
Tideline today!
Simply put… if you like to fish in both skinny and offshore
waters, Tideline catamarans is your answer to have it all in one vessel.
“No cookie cutter boats from George and Michael just
outstanding custom boats made to your specifications at reasonable prices. If
you like a smooth ride and are tired of getting beaten up by choppy rough
water, then this is the boat for you.”
~ Scott Baughman reviewed Tideline Boats, Inc. — 5 star
“Passion and a thirst for excellence is what defines
Michael, George and the team behind Tideline Boats. The only custom catamaran
boat building company in North America that combines top notch quality
materials, superb craftmanship, uncomplicated, classic and elegant design
elements deeply rooted in the history of the North Carolina shores. Both principles combined, allow Tideline
Boats, to create an unmatched capable and rugged catamaran style platform who
will surely far exceed the expectations of the toughest seafaring critics.”
~ Juan F Galvis reviewed Tideline Boats, Inc. — 5 star
“I had the chance to test ride a 235 hybrid in North
Carolina and immediately put in an order! Michael takes great pride in these
boats and there is no comparison in terms of quality. I could not believe how
solid this boat is and the attention to detail that was put into it. I had
looked at other cats, the Carolina Cat in particular, and they are in 2
different worlds. I'm anxiously awaiting my delivery and sea trial.”
~ Joshua Luft reviewed Tideline Boats, Inc. — 5 star
UPDATE: For six months Jim Baugh Outdoors TV has been actively speaking with various boating manufactures to determine what is the best fit for our JBO TV audience, and the main waters we feature (Coastal-Offshore-Chesapeake Bay). Determining what is a great boat for a multitude of needs, one that is of top build quality and affordable was a challenging task. We have no doubt come to the final conclusion of who this marine company is. We are happy to say that the deal is inked and we will make the announcement next Friday on St. Patrick’s Day. All I can say for now is that this is the best boat for the Chesapeake Bay, offshore, and skinny water that I have seen. It is also a great company with a solid reputation. We look forward to promoting this boat, during 2017 and into 2018, our 30th anniversary. This boat will also be filmed in some of our regularly highlighted mid atlantic fishing tournaments. We will be producing factory tour segments as well as performance test filmed right here on our home waters of the Chesapeake Bay. Lots of great stuff to come. See yall next Friday!
