2019 Contender Bay 25 Walk Through

[@benskai2475akurfishing]

the video is very good, thank you senior, blessings and success are always together in every work and your work

[@mmanut]

Best Bay boat period. Contender 24-25 is the perfect size for all around fishing. Gets into shallow waters, must have jack plate. ABSOLUTE BEAUTIFUL BOAT‼️👍 Vinny 🇺🇸 PS, Bud n' Mary's in the Keys is where it's at‼️ BEST FISHING

[@AdamCostantini]

I've been going back and watching all the KZbin videos from the start and you've come a long way Rick. You are sounding more confident and professional. Great video and amazing content. Stay safe out there!

[@BudnMarysMarina]

Thanks for the encouragement, much appreciated, and stay safe as well!

[@1mrflo]

Great boat tour video by fisher person/ guide. Thanks for sharing!

[@BudnMarysMarina]

Thanks!

[@iam73en]

Beautiful boat! I’m jealous!

[@corbendean9043]

U should do a tour of all bud n Mary’s boats, the bay boats and the offshore

[@BudnMarysMarina]

Have thought about it, definitely will in the future

[@frankcole2167]

please start with the seavee next door. they dont make those anymore and want one.

[@johnthompson9116]

Great walk through!

[@John-yt5zr]

What a cool video, I would like to fish with you someday. You have dotted all of your eyes and crossed your t’s my friend. Well done, and I’ve just subscribed to your channel.

[@jglez4965]

Great boat Rick 👍

[@connorbaird699]

It’s crazy how much space PFDs take.

[@Jonathan_Camps]

We’ve got one with a T-top on it. We can’t find a better boat in that size range. We run it 20-30 miles off shore and it takes chop better than most 30+ ft boats i’ve been on. Plus its super dry!

[@BudnMarysMarina]

Yeah the ride is great as far as the banging goes, not much better in that size. Mines a little wet if you aren't careful, but we put spray rails on which help a little. The original rub rail I think was thicker too and probably helped catch a bit more too, we put a very thin hard plastic one on.

[@Jonathan_Camps]

Bud n' Mary's Marina We bought ours used and it hasn’t let us down yet! We wanted to get one with a second station but decided ours was fine. We couldn’t decide between a pathfinder 2500 and the contender, but after we took a sea trail at the miami boat show and got airtime in the boat, we decided the boat was strong enough for our fishing needs 😂

[@BudnMarysMarina]

@@Jonathan_Camps actually sorry I thought this response was too the seacraft video I just posted lol. Yeah the contender is amazingly dry and soft ride

[@Jonathan_Camps]

Bud n' Mary's Marina Haha! Indeed it is!

[@ciroromer7380]

Nice Rick. I have a Contender 39 ST. Looking to add the 25 bay for inshore fishing. Can't beat Contender if you into fishing.

[@BudnMarysMarina]

Awesome! You'll have a nice fleet 👍👍

[@SmartMoneyReviews]

Check the pathfinder 2500 out as well.

Nice boat!

[@SmartMoneyReviews]

Thanks for the walk through

[@MikeCherry-hp4xm]

Great video. I have a 2022 Mako 21 LTS with the same trolling motor with the same set up and mount with Garmin livescope. I have an issues with my livescope transducer power cord wrapping around the trolling shaft when I use the anchor lock to the point of something could get damage. Do you have the same issue? Thanks

[@kabrams87]

What kind of umbrella setup do you use for shade? Wanting to do something similar on my boat which does have a t top for the same reason you don’t but would like to have some shade at times. Also my parents have that same boat and it’s one bad ride . I wish we had the small leaning post though.

[@BudnMarysMarina]

I just got one of those big sunbrella ones that can sit in the rod holder on the bow or in the console

[@captainscottlum2371]

I've wanted one of these for a long time, did you buy this boat used or new?

[@BudnMarysMarina]

I ordered it new

[@brianduke633]

What rod and reels are you usually using on your videos ?

[@BudnMarysMarina]

Mostly Penn spinfisher vi on my light rods. Slammer 3s on larger tarpon rods. The rods are mixed bag... Ugly sticks for tarpon mostly.

[@scottray6641]

Did you look at the Pathfinder 2500 hybrid?

[@BudnMarysMarina]

No, we have an older 24 Pathfinder though

[@scottray6641]

@@BudnMarysMarina i have a 22 pathfinder and am thinking about moving up a few feet.

[@jk30jr]

What map card do you have for your gps?

[@BudnMarysMarina]

It's an older Garmin satellite imagery card. They don't make it anymore however and pulled it from shelves. Model was YUS043R

[@twinbee13monsterhunter]

You're the first saltwater guide I've seen with the Garmin livescope is it really good as these bass fishermen claim it to be ? Nice rig Captain!

[@BudnMarysMarina]

It is definitely useful i will do a video on it sometime. Probably not as crystal clear images as you will get in clean, calm fresh water. But can definitely mark fish, bait, structure, from a ways away. And often know even what kind of fish it is.

[@twinbee13monsterhunter]

Captain yes I think it would be great if you could do a video. I was thinking about getting live scope. Thanks.
