Awesome “watch” and exactly what everyone wanted to see 👊 Win/Win for all party’s involved,with killer exposure for the guys at GAMBLER and double killer for the guys at home to see Andy “the most, doesn’t hold back or bite his tongue type of guy in the boating industry (staple now days) Without being there myself to see the pros and the cons definitely the next best thing,shoot it to you straight 💥TEAM MARINE💥 🤘
Enjoyed the video. I owned a Gambler/250XB. It was an exceptionally built boat. The best built/best rough water boat Ive ever owned was an Allison BasSport Pro. My Gambler was the only boat that ever came close to complete satisfaction. Im running a new Gator Trax Strike Series now. If I ever go back to glass, these new Gamblers will be on the short list.
I have a buddy that I fish with and he's always ran a gambler and has a sterling right now and when we go tournament fishing my ribs hurt because the Gs the boat pulls in the turns and in Louisiana fishing in the spillway there's lots of turns . Tons . But that thing is the most awesome boat I have ever been in hands down .
I’ve been in an older gambler a long time ago that boat was fast, I’d definitely be interested in seeing a new one but it might be hard to give up my Champ!
Amazing video the boat looks like a work of art but the best thing about it you can use it, love it maybe one day I will import one to Australia. Well Gambler think out side the box.
Great video. I would have liked to have seen how it fishes and how stable while fishing it is. Running the big motor is only a small part of the day, the most important part is how well it fishes.
I'm 6'5"....how does a big guy fit in the boat?....great to see the conversation of how they are different from all the other boats....and the thought process of why they are making it that way.
Wish I could have seen the boat on this video, But never seen the dash never seen the compartments .Got to see the compartment doors but that's about it. Just flashes of it. Good review of the guys who build the boat but not so good about the boat itself.
really stoked to see new owners with this brand! i had the opportunity to build the last 2 Gamblers that came out of the old owners location and umbrella in central florida. they have a phenomenal performance history they just always lacked proper ownership and direction. would love to tour this new shop sometime in the future.
I absolutely loved the video on the gambler build. I have spoken to heath and I know The new G's are in a class of their own .I have always loved Gamblers and hope the day affords me a new one .I'm in a bug now but my next boat will be a Heath and crew built GAMBLER. I HOPE BY 2025 TO BE IN A GAMBLER. LOVE THE LINES,THE LOOK,AND JUST THE DIFFERENCE OF THEM . DID I MENTION I LOVE Gs
One of the only walk-throughs I see that I did not want the video to end. I was talking to the owner of gambler and we talked for about 20 minutes but I can tell you we would’ve talked for another two hours. They have a passion for it and I love what they do. We talked about new innovations that they are currently testing. You have got me sold almost on the Suzuki motor even though I’ve been a mercury guy over 40 years. I would love to hear your thoughts on the Suzuki 250 And the 300 and what the difference would be on the gambler elite. I love the information from this video thank you for doing such a great job. I think it’s a fantastic boat
I didn't even have to see the running video to know that it was going to be good. You can feel the passion these guys have to build a quality boat and to do every step the right way.
That’s why I wouldn’t buy a nitro……they may be cheaper but they are todays Bayliner, mass production where quality is overlooked for volume…….the riskiest place you can be is on the water……I would only want the best under my feet….
Awesome video. Loved the boat gambler boat tour. Like to see a Phoenix boat tour or a falcon. Keep the video coming . Can't wait till the next week video.
@@TeamMarineService pictures sent thanks trying make it through some more of your vids. Has a 115ETLJ Yamaha 2 stroker on it now pos merc that was on it had more shrapnel in it than ww II
Been waiting for this video man I love Gamblers I have a 1991 Gambler still looks brand new wouldn’t sale it for anything unless it was another Gambler maybe Heath and the guys at Gambler will do a youtube Channel like Team Marine does that would be awesome any ways thanks for the video Andy 👍
Thanks Heath yeah I’ve seen all those if it has to do with Gamblers I don’t miss much lol I didn’t think about it till after I said it that you put stuff on TH-cam just meant I would like to see what’s going on in the Gambler shop like Andy shows but big fan of Gamblers and can’t wait to see what’s to come 👍👍
I've dreamed of owning a gambler since I was 16 years old and I'm 50. Always been the sexiest boat ever made. When will yall hang the 450 r merc on the rear I bet it will do 112mph
I’m not a bass fishermen, but shit this makes me want to buy a Gambler boat! Great build quality and extremely well thought out boats. I love the fine details they’ve thought about and a great utilization of space
Dang I was hoping they could keep the new company a secret for a while. I wanted to have one before the cat was let out of the bag. This is one of the best videos you have done and now I need to scrape the rest of the money together and get one on order. Great job!!!!
Dream boat!! most likely won't ever be able to afford one, but at least I have my 02 intimidator till then! nice job Andy awesome that you're gonna be a Gambler dealer. tight lines
Yeah br0..looks like u & him got good points with me on the Gambler boat.. but if u don't mind my wish is that some day .. will u visit the big factory of Caymus boats * walk me through it as whell maybe & test drive 0nn of them also
The structural laminate schedule is 100% hand-laid woven fiberglass mat with a 50" wide Kevlar layer down the keel from the bow all the way to the transom for exceptional impact and abrasion toughness. All core materials are also 100% composite, so there isn't any wood anywhere in the boat. These are full liner boats, which means there are essentially two hulls with a layer of high pressure structural foam between them. We actually flip the liner mold and bolt it into the hull mold, and then inject the foam throughout the entire boat with the two molds bolted together. This allows the pressure of the expanding foam to force its way into every little nook and cranny throughout the entire hull and liner assembly, while the rigid structure of the two molds prevents any distortion in the shape of the hull or liner under the extreme pressures. The hull and liner then stay in the molds bolted together for at least 24 hours to ensure that the foam fully cures in that exact shape before the bonded one-piece assembly is removed. We use sandwich core construction not just for the deck and cockpit flooring but also anywhere you might accidentally step (compartments floors, etc.). If you're interested in hearing more just give us a call! 803.854.0000 Ask for Heath!
I think Gambler could make a big comeback given that they redesign the top cap and some of the angle of the boat that make it look like a relic of the 80's.
Andy I live in sc and bad back more less broke it now I have 2 questions 1. It seems that the front deck is higher out the water than other boats is it? ( great for flipping) if so. 2. I've owned 4 rangers now not the Nitro rangers how great is ride compared to 2008 ranger? My last ranger was 2018 it suck
@@TeamMarineServicedon't waste your time. If you go to Tennessee to a tour of Allison boats. If I didn't care mostly about speed I'd own a new Gambler over an Allison especially being made in my home state.
Great tour Andy I've been waiting for a long time to get to see their facility. I have talked to the guys several times about the availability of parts for older G boats. I'm thinking it might be time to upgrade!!!!!!!
Charger, skeeter, and basscat. Need a tour and feedback because I’m in the market and those are the boats I’m looking at. I’ve always had a skeeter but I’m interested in the bass cat because of how highly you talk about them and the charger because of their likeness to a champion. Is a charger a comparable boat to the champ210elite??
83mph with a four blade. Judging from that chine walk a three blade it'll do 85 or 86ish but way to unstable. Those four blade help alot with stability
I love those boats. It's still way ahead of it's time. I had a friend who had one and had a dealership . This video came up because of how to find one. Being a fishing guide at the best lake in Texas. I wish I could get one. Dream boat 101. That was the most solid boat ever been in. I would drive there just to watch the build and would help building them. Been in the outdoor business all my life. How hard is it to sell one. Easy ...just get in it. Contact me I'll come work there....
I know you Hate tin boats, but I would like to know more about Xpress. Top notch glass are out of my price range, maybe when I retire. I'm 50 miles away from Ballistic and I have meet Jim, I would definitely buy a Ballistic if money was no issue.
All I ever knew about Gambler boats was that the late Dale Earnhardt owned one and I never knew him to do anything second rate. Also, didn't they used to be aluminum?
After watching this video I feel like the guys at Gambler would mesh well with the people at Legacy Marine in Grand Rivers, KY. I just bought my Alweld MXL from them and the people there are just like the guys at Gambler. Very personable. Not pushy. Answered every single question I had and made sure I was picking a boat that fit me. They didn't try to put me in a more expensive boat. I'll continue to drive an hour out of my way to give my money to Legacy vs. another dealer 20 minutes from me. It was that great of an experience. Gambler, if you're reading this maybe try to reach out to them and work something out. They would probably be a great dealer for y'all.
Where are all of our G fans at? You can officially call us up to order your new Gambler Bass Boats! 🔥🇺🇸
so you guys are a dealer now?
I wish i could afford one. Gambler is the best bass boat on the market now.
im going to talk to scotty tomor about prices and how long to build ??????
Had one. My 2010 Bullet RDC still looks immaculate…..got it for 26k…buying a brand new bass boat at the cost these days is just DUMB.
If you are in the market for a new "G" call us up and let's chat. Y'all need to drive, ride in and feel the Gambler Experience!
Scotty and Heath are doing an awesome job. I applaud their dedication to offering support for us older model Gambler owners.
Awesome video Team Marine. Glad to see you guys are working with Gambler to let the world know that they're back.
For sure!!! They're a great group of guys and we are very excited for the future

Been waiting for this video !
Heck yeah buddy! 👍🏻👍🏻
I’d like to know your honest opinion about the vexus boats
Shout out to Scotty G, Heath and Will for inviting us down to do this! Thanks guys!
Incredible boats. My dad owns a 2006 2200DC. Still turning heads where ever we go. Quality is unmatched. Can’t wait to see what the future holds!
You can tell they really care about the boats they build. They put a lot of work into them

A boat so cool it has earned the respect of the coolest man in bass fishing… Yuki Ito from Megabass!
Great video! Has Gambler rigged a boat with a Evinrude G2 250HO. just curious on performance if any one knows.
Just wanted to say thank you very much for all the great knowledge. 👍 Excellent job!
You are very welcome Adam! 👍🏻👍🏻
Had a 98 2100 dc loved that boat. Now I’m in a 2019 skeeter fx21 and ready to sale it. I’ll definitely be checking gambler out for my next boat.
Gator Trax dealer soon as well???
Amazing video the boat looks like a work of art but the best thing about it you can use it, love it maybe one day I will import one to Australia. Well Gambler think out side the box.
What a badass looking boat. Sounds like the performance to match the look
Your best video Andy this is great stuff 👍👍👍👍👍👍🎣🎣🎣🎣
21 years rocking a Gambler from Canada to the interior of Mexico. Hull is as solid as the day it rolled off the line.
Great boat, great video. We need to have Andy do more of these factory tours in the future. Vexus and Xpress tours.
Thank you! We will be making some calls next week and getting some tours lined up this winter! 👍🏻👍🏻
Great video. I would have liked to have seen how it fishes and how stable while fishing it is. Running the big motor is only a small part of the day, the most important part is how well it fishes.

Always liked the way a Gambler looks. Hopefully they are able to make it work and have success.
Xpress boat factory tour. I wonder if gambler would do a boat with seadek instead of carpet 🤔

Oh yeaahhhh!!!
Awesome video and very informative. Please do a tour and test ride of the Progator boats in Benton, Louisiana. Thank you.
We've been hearing more and more from them, time to make a call
I did Drool over the 96 Team boats. Still love em!
Crazy seeing a video from you on my home lake but that gambler looked awesome.
Also it almost always a lot choppier on the other side of the bridge
Great video. Have an 89 gambler just cant get straight answer on model

Thanks buddy!
ANDY...are theses new boats a whole lot more expensive than say a new basscat or ranger?
They are priced on par with the highest models of both basscat and ranger
I would love to see y'all do a tour of the Blazer plant if possible.
We'd love to do that for ya
Great job bringing this video to life. Next video, Gator Trax, you will not be disappointed.
GT's are hands down the best tin boats out there! That tour is in our future for sure
@@TeamMarineService can't wait to see you do the tour. My strike series is on order.

Would love to see them eventually build a bay / flats boat on that hull like the sterling was

So excited to see these awesome boats being built again
I’m not a bass fishermen, but shit this makes me want to buy a Gambler boat!
Great build quality and extremely well thought out boats. I love the fine details they’ve thought about and a great utilization of space
Got a price on a decked out Gambler before I bought my Ballistic .204. Very comparable in cost and they’re very nice boats.
We love both of those rigs!!! Cant go wrong with either one
Dang I was hoping they could keep the new company a secret for a while. I wanted to have one before the cat was let out of the bag. This is one of the best videos you have done and now I need to scrape the rest of the money together and get one on order. Great job!!!!
G's are notorious for their chine. Looked like he was steering through it. I was wondering how the new ones would handle
I like this. Could you try to visit the Falcon boat and the Ballastic boat plants?
We can make Ballistic happen for sure and likely the Falcon one too.

Deal Alan, we will look into it
Thanks, there is a guy who sold his old Gambler and got an old Smokercraft tin boat. He did a lot less bass fishing and more catfish drifting.
Always wanted an early 90s gambler ...they can move!!
All G's rock!
If Andy went to Suzuki’s headquarters on this day, it would’ve have been the best day of his life! 😂
Close to it! Haha
I’ve been waiting for this. One day I’ll own one, I’ve been saving for over a year now
Great video! Thank you!!! Didn't enjoy the ad apocalypse during it though! Were there over 20?
How does it handle rough water, not chop, I’m talking 3 to 4 foot swells?
Extremely well!
Price for the hull no engine?
I think Gambler could make a big comeback given that they redesign the top cap and some of the angle of the boat that make it look like a relic of the 80's.
drinking the gambler coolaid..lol We get it. You love Gambler.
Let's stir up a pitcher of Ballistic, Blazer and Bullet koolaid too cuz we love them also! 😉👍🏻
Gator Trax Strike Series koolaid is a powerful potion
Welcome to South Carolina keep up the good work love the videos

Suzuki for sure! Our demo boat will have a Zuk on it

Awesome video. Definitely the boat I hope to own one day
Future reference when you bring up fighter aircraft..., F-16 is a Falcon , the F-15 is the eagle. Love the video
Man I love Gambler's, but they just never took rough waves, conditions very good. Shame id love to have another one!
You gotta get into these new one's Lance! Things have changed! 👍🏻👍🏻
Oh, you have to check out the new engineering. Heath has fixed that. Watch the video!
