2021 Lowe Roughneck 2070 SC

[@johnkruse5403]

Was looking for more info about this model and it was tough to find. Thanks for sharing!

[@dgriff03]

Very hard and the website doesn’t help much. Glad it helped. If you have questions let me know

[@youngin881]

Very nice video my man! I was looking hard at the 1860 but this has me seriously reconsidering.

[@dgriff03]

Depends on what you need from it. I have run this is smaller rivers just fine. I might consider a jackplate and a jet conversion to switch back and forth but i don't run super skinny water. I'd opt for more space than less typically. Neither would fit in my garage so I went bigger :)

[@Stephen-qp9ff]

Very nice boat and truck combo!

[@dgriff03]

Appreciate it!

[@MrChessgator]

Thanks for the video. Not much info available at the LOWE website. They should have more detail and more factory installed options, like electric motors, sonars and navigation lights, etc...

[@SteveZ919]

Nice boat :) Hope to one day get something like this.

[@erniemyslinski4113]

Great walk around. Kinda want to do one for my Lowe now also!

[@dgriff03]

You should. Not enough people do. With how Lowe has everything online it’s very hard to tell what you’re getting m. In my neck of the woods not many people run them either.

[@Theron622]

Man thanks for the videos! I'd love to see more about the blind and modifications you have made. Maybe some quick in use videos after your first season?

[@dgriff03]

There are quite a few beavertail videos out there.

[@curtkramer5154]

That’s a very nice rig

[@genehughes-MyNewPlanB]

Nice look'n rig Dan! Been contemplating the same boat, but stuck in between the cc or sc...decisions decisions! 😂

[@dgriff03]

I’ve been super happy with the side console. More seating for friends and family and the reality is, you can stand and drive. It’s not as clean or comfy as on a CC but it works.

[@genehughes-MyNewPlanB]

Now there's a thought I didn't consider. The cc does take up quite a bit of room...Thanks for the feedback!

[@dgriff03]

@@genehughes-MyNewPlanB just depends on your primary usage. I have a friend who swears by his cc because he has mobility on both sides of the boat. He doesn’t hunt from boat though. That tall CC would make that difficult.

[@darkbikelife4270]

Have you ever had any issues or heard of problems with the foam due to lake of floor drains? I have the same boat but its badged as a Lund predator. Stumbled across people saying something about a recall on FB but not sure.

[@dgriff03]

No but I wouldn’t doubt it. Have considered putting a drain in. Have to imagine it would be fairly simple

[@briannichols4091]

Just curious of the price .. thats about what looking for but with get drive option... thanks for your time

[@dgriff03]

When I ordered a little north of 30… wouldn’t be surprised if prices have gone up. I hear it’s super high demand

[@johnluniewski1791]

I totally agree with you. Thank you so much for the video!😎 What's on the port and starboard side in the stern? I saw the fuel tank is centered. Is it foam on the sides, more storage?

[@dgriff03]

Fuel is right behind the bench. The side I have my gun/rod box but otherwise it’s metal.

[@knarf417]

Do you know or could you measure the length with motor down and swing tongue open? I’m curious if it’ll fit in my garage. Thanks!

[@dgriff03]

You’ve got a big ass garage if it can and I’d be very jealous. The tongue folds to basically right under the tip of the bow. Rough measurement is about 23’8”... 24’ would give you a touch of wiggle room

[@knarf417]

Thank you sir!

[@darkbikelife4270]

@@dgriff03 My garage is 23’3” from back wall to inside of the garage door. She barely fits by an inch or so. Thats with the 150.

[@timcramer1492]

look at a used 2070 , would u buy this boat again?

[@dgriff03]

100% there are days I wish I would have bought a jet motor to get me through and into some real skinny water but otherwise I love this thing

[@joemillar240]

Did i see a WA state plate on that truck?

[@dgriff03]

Yes sir. Not many Lowe boats here. Was incredibly hard to find info on them

[@joemillar240]

[@toddruthruff834]

Thank you for the video. I saw your video with the blind and was hoping for some inside pics with the blind up. Curious how it is hunting from the platforms (front and back). Does your head stick up above the blind or is the blind tall enough to conceal without having to sit on the floor or all hunched over?

[@dgriff03]

I’ll see if I can grab a pic. It’s heavily dependent on the height of the person, seat and your brush above the blind. Simple answer is yes, but there are ways to mitigate

[@hulkhuggett]

Great boat and thanks for the video. How does it handle choppy water? Would LOVE to see a video of it on the water and especially in choppy water.

[@dgriff03]

You’re going to get thumped and bumped. It’s an aluminum boat. It’s much more comfortable on the bench seat than it it sittting near the bow. I don’t do these videos for a living so I’ll see what I can get ya.

[@SteveZ919]

How is it holding up? Any issues with the boat or trailer?

[@dgriff03]

Great for me. The only issue I’ve run into was a relay switch on the mercury and it was an easy fix and covered by mercury. Karavan trailers can get a bad rep but so far so good on my end

[@skatinonbilletsk5750]

are you able to get one of these without a motor? I really want a 2070 but I already have a motor

[@dgriff03]

I think so... go to the Lowe website and check it out! I’ve heard there are long delays on boat so maybe look at your local dealer first

[@brianheidel4550]

can you tell us what you paid for it ?

[@dgriff03]

It’s in the comments. Little north of 30k

[@dantecarter1836]

Do you get water inside of storage boxes?

[@dgriff03]

They are not air tight. Yes, water can get in but for me it’s been minimal and not at an alarming pace

[@jackp405]

Do you ever run a blind on this?

[@dgriff03]

Yeah I think I made a second video with some pic of it (I’m not a KZbinr though sooo don’t judge). But I bought a beavertail blind for it

[@justinpuhnaty]

what is the top speed you are getting?

[@dgriff03]

Right now 40 with 3-4 guys plus gear. I’m considering a 19 pitch to get more speed but need to run more RPM tests

[@noel1933]

@@dgriff03 If you haven't get you a Mercury VesselView Mobile, it is easy to attach to and mount inside of engine cowling, The thing will give you all the information on engine, with app on phone or tablet, also some of the garmin and humminbirds are starting to support it. it gives you all info on engine,,, hours , codes, rpm, instant fuel per hour burning, mph , rpm, etc It is excellent for trying out different props because you can pick the one with correct rpm or best fuel economy .. put "Mercury VesselView Mobile" into amazon or google, they run $194 on amazon sometime mercury has a deal for $125

With the way boat prices have shot up I have no clue

[@changsoutdoors170]

How fast can you go? How much did you buy it for and is there any regret?

With the prop I’ve got I’m at 40mph. No regrets from me. Great boat

[@Live2HuntMN]

How fast dose it run?

[@dgriff03]

I’ve pushed it to 42 with 3 guys plus decoys and gear. Can definitely get more from it. Might test a bigger prop for more top end but it’s get on plane insanely quickly and I don’t have much need to go faster.

[@youngin881]

In hindsight, would you have went with the 150?

[@dgriff03]

@@youngin881 nope. Its rated for it but I gotta imagine it would be significantly heavier and overpowered. I run open water and smaller rivers and the 115 is probably even more than what I need. If I can push 40 that's plenty fast considering how light of a boat it is.

[@youngin881]

@@dgriff03 Make sense Dan. Thanks for this insight, Sir!

[@darkbikelife4270]

@@youngin881I have the same boat with a 150. Want to say I get 46-48 mph with a passenger loaded. Not much more than the 115 but its also very quick out of the hole. Thats probly wear the 150 shines.

[@growlith6969]

Hard to respect Lowe when they don't have an option to buy just the boat instead of sky high complete packages.
