Trailer is sooo very nice ! 👍 👀🔥🎣💪

This is ideal. Question. Is it too heavy with 2 people on. Would love to do this same thing with confidence someone could also be on back seat while stay on pedastal. Wouldn’t necessarily need a 2.5 hp on back

5 years later ! How dis it hold up?

That’s a nice set up

Anyone know the shaft length on that trolling motor?

Probably way too late to help or matter, but check out the electrical industry straps called " Conduit hangers". They range in size from I think, 3/8", 1/2",3/4",1",1-1/4",1-1/2" & 2" sizes. After 2" size they offer a 2-1/2"& 3-1/2" size in addition to the standard inch sizes up to 6", if I remember correctly? You can pick the size that's the closest on what you're dealing with and the see if you can rig them to work. Hope it may help someone. Take care.

Not even sure if I will get a response since this is so old but I just acquired one and wondering what I need to buy to run the battery in the back and trolling motor in the front. I have seen some videos that I need a new socket in the front or something?

What's the horsepower on that mercury

so i see u made this 4 years ago how did it hold up i did the same thing an my boat broke every place i attached the wood just started to breakaway an i did it almost exactly the same way .

I have been there! Fun!

Nice work 🤙🏼

Great time out with family and friend. God bless you and we appreciate the time you take to help us all out.

Do you have the motor on boat when you drive to the location, or do you lay it down inside your boat?

thah is my dad

nice

ya, that thing is nice. You did a great job on it.

what type of carpet did you use

Nice 👍

My wife and I live near and fish Lake Conroe. Can you share some good spots so I can put her on more fish?

Is that 3/4” or 1/2” plywood for the floor and casting deck? Great job on this. About to try to do some of these myself

Nicely doen on this video and the mods. Thanks for taking the time to share this with us and I hope you have a blessed weekend. That treated wood is a perk, you wont have the weeds sticking to if if you go to a place that has a bunch of weeds and what not right at the boat ramp. dale

Did you make a video showing your transducer mod?

Thought about buying one myself . With all your mods, do you know how much you got in her ?

What a great video. And an even better time. Thanks for sharing

This is cool! Thank you for the sub ❤

What is the minimum length motor shaft that can work. I have a pelican intruder 12'jon boat.

I hope you're still using this bad ass boat!!! I had one years ago and never modified it. I plan to buy another soon and what you did is really awesome!

Don't know if this is still relevant but you could cut your poles in half. Use brass inserts and 1/4 x20 threaded studs to assemble them. We use their shalow anchors for kayak tourney fishing. The rope going up isn't neccessary... Cool idea tho.

Where did you get the clips that it secures to when it’s down in transport?

Genius

Best practical mod I’ve seen.

The only problem with lake woodlands is they don’t allow gasoline motors. They used to allow you to only troll with them but now you cant even use them at all, it’s exclusively electric only.

Nice Job

Very Damn nice setup

Nice neat organized set up. Only thing that would prevent me from doing something similar is in the past I have done a jon boat very similar and hated dealing with the added weight on the front when loading the boat. I have been considering a boat along the lines of this and for my use would be more apt to not add any additional weight besides motors, trolling battery and depth finder. But very nice work!

Nice video! You need to look into the "no snag" tie method for your deep water anchor. Several videos on YT show this technique using a small tie wrap at the eye and the main knot tying to the bottom point of the anchor. If you snag on rocks you pull the rope until the tie wrap breaks, anchor flips, and you pull it back by it's point. I've saved my kayak anchor (similar to yours in design) at least a dozen times when I would have otherwise lost it in 25 ft of water.

Great looking lake!

What speed do you get with the 2.5 with gear?

Nice Job buddy, working on mine today. I will do a similar setup. Thanks for the video. I'll post mine soon. thanks again.

I'm building a pontoon/catamaran style boat. I'll be using an anchor system similar to yours. My first thoughts were along the line of a small hose reel. Rigging some kind of stop (lever) to let the anchor down. Using the crank on the hose reel to lift it when not needed. One in the front and one in the rear. For deeper water anchoring. For shallow water anchoring I'll be using EMT tubing. First thought was to have them pivot and lay along the side of the boat when not in use. Question, why don't you use the same technique to tilt them down as you did for raising and lowering ? That is how I'll be doing mine. I wont be using those little gadgets you used. I'll just go with pullies from the hardware store. On a non-existent budget. Can't afford a boat....so, I JUST BUILT ONE.

Awesome ideas my friend. I also like the idea of being capable of rotating the 10' rods 90* to lock down on boat for travel. Thanks, Steve

Where is the battery stored.

Just finished doing this modification to my 10e. Honestly is so cool how you used the original handle holes and didn’t have to screw or drill anything into the boat. Had to make a few adjustments and make some holes bigger but in the end it came out amazing. Great work!!!

Hey MaxCast....Really like your video's...I also built a transom saver for my bass raider and i was wondering if this boat cover fits with the addition of your transom saver. Also, looks like leaving the seats in should not be a problem, right? . How is the cover holding up in the weather? I have gone through several covers and not found a durable bass raider cover. I saw a Pelican cover on Amazon but it looks like i would have to take seats out in order to fit.. Thanks for your help.

wow your mods are awesome. thanks

Good fishing with the spinnerbait.

Could you do a video breakdown of the deck? I love that setup it has room for two and storage that’s the way to go.

The music on every catch is a killer

Your mods are the best ive seen , clutter free

I'm thinking about getting one of these boats, and I love this Idea. I will for sure do this. But I will probably go all the way around just so I can add more stuff (because I overdo everything). Thank you for the great Idea.
