3-year rundown of my plastic 10ft boat. Should you buy one?

[@DavidKing-py9dt]

Hi jett i agree with you on everything. I put a bilge pump in that area and it fits perfectly i think it's why its shaped that way. Wish it was a little deeper so the pump would get all the water it leaves a little bit in the back. Anyway thank for the review.

[@fishingwithjett5373]

Thanks for that update on that bilge pump because I really have been thinking about trying that first before I drill a hole in mine. Quick question, what you use to secure the bilge pump in place?

[@DavidKing-py9dt]

Screws with silicon around them.

[@kerrywages9631]

Hey Jett....Great recap of likes/ dislikes..I have had my Pelican for 2 years and had the exact same concerns that you outlined. I made the leap last year & put in a scupper, drain plugs in the back of the pontoons & built my transom support that i saw Maxcast outline. It's scary to drill holes in a boat but get some directions from fellow Bass Raiders online and you can push through the fear and it is worth it in the end.....Love your videos.

[@fishingwithjett5373]

Thanks for the words of encouragement Kerry and I'm happy to know you enjoyed my review of PBR. I was just in my garage looking at that very area of the boat. You know, In my mind I've been going over the steps of installing a drainage hole. I've been looking @FFH TV content on how he installed his drainage/Scupper hole in his PBR. It looks rock solid to me.

[@DowneastFishing]

I appreciate you taking the time to give us a thorough review of the boat. It definitely helps! I'm actually going to look at a 10E w/ a enduramax 55 that I found on marketplace, tomorrow. I can't wait to have some open water up here in Maine! Cheers buddy

Just bought a Bass Pro Pond Prowler 10 and can’t wait to get it on the water. Love your review. BTW the Pond prowler has a drain plug in the back of the boat so at least one manufacturer has listened about the drainage issue.

I agree with you on a lot of the changes they should make with this boat, but I think they are trying to keep the coast down, and not have to change production. I feel like they need a basic and a premium version of this boat.

That would be nice if they did in fact have two options like you said. That would be cool.

You're right It's crazy how people think it's cooler to be on the water without protective gear on. All we can do @wokeamerica is continue to wear ours and inspire others while we do it.

Hey sir! Thank you for your honest review! I have had one for a few years now, and agree with your findings. These are great little boats for what they are. I have put mine in storage for now, and I’m switching up to kayaks, but I plan on doing a number of modifications on it this winter. Living in Southern Indiana, it gets cold here, and I will probably use this instead of the kayak to fish in the late fall, early spring months! You have inspired me, and so, I have subbed, and rang the bell. Looking forward to more great content!!

I have a Pond Prowler and the same motor as you. 100% agree with you on the drainage. They also should have designed them with plastic wheels on the back or at least some removable wheels for easier transport off the trailer or for the guys who have to haul in their truck bed.

What I've read about the newest boats they made with stronger plastic, they have better seats, but I read a few reviews & ppl are having complaints about the seats construction not holding up, suppose to have compartments & it's rated at 600 lbs for persons & equipment, but also comes to 1400$, I've watched a lot of your videos concerning the boat & you've done a great job on your modifications, also ppl have put a drain plug in theirs & it started leaking on them, the boat is way better than a kayak more stable wise & you can launch it just about anywhere compared to a big boat that's what I like about it the most, I don't have one yet, but hopefully I will get one this yr! Just read where 2 young anglers drowned yesterday in Virginia they were good swimmers but didn't have life jackets on water temp was 40, very sad! Also where is that boat made?

[@richardkeller6940]

Hey Jett My Raider is still new and been working so much I have only used it twice but I love it. And everything that you mentioned I agree with. I am still doing little mods here and there and I need to do the scupper as well cause I will fish in the rain if I have too. I don’t have a trailer and so I made a dolly that most guys on KZbin have made but I want to come up with one that works a little better plus I have no room for a trailer. No outboard for me so I did a little something different that I haven’t seen yet on the back of my boat, but need to fish some more out of it to see how it will work. For me the bottom line was it could put me on the water at a cheap price, bigger boat is nice but comes with having to spend more on maintenance and all that. I put some strips of pvc moulding on the bottom to prevent scratching it all up that somebody else did a video on. Need to get the lighting situated cause I love to fish at night. It’s fun trying to come up with ideas to modify it. Anyway keep grinding and thanks for your videos I watch them all.

[@fishingwithjett5373]

Yeah working alot can definitely take away a few fishing days. You probably built the same type dolly I did a couple years ago. It didn't work well for me either so I junk it also. Oh so you've come up with something not seen on KZbin. I hope after you use it on the water more it works out for you. I really appreciate your support 💯 and keep fishing for sho.👍🏾

Great video Jett. I am right there with you on the drain plug. I bought all the stuff but can't actually drill a hole and install it.. haha.. We have the same motor too. How do you like that Honda 2.3 so far? I wish they made it a little bit longer. A PBR 12 would be so great. Our setups are very similar. Have a great season Jett. I'll be following your season. BTW.. I did flip mine once. They are stable but me and my buddy leaned over at the same time and over it went. Granted, once in over 200 trips, pretty good. It is stable. I will never get on the boat without a life jacket. It saved me that day. Fish on!

I would suggest you take a look at the Bass Hunter boat. It is much stronger. It will cost almost twice as much but you pay for what you get. It has no wiring so you have to customize it to your liking. It's wider than the other 2-man bass boats. It is a one piece boat, so no water inside the boat unless you leave it outside in the rain and it get in from the storage cutout.

As far as stability I don't do anything other than have my rudder attachment on my boat to reduce the boat spinning. Staying seated while the water is choppy is better than standing up. I hope I was able to help answer your question. The Pelican Bass Raider handles wind well.

Jett: It looks like you added a plywood floor. If so, what thickness did you go with? Since you fish standing up, does the floor feel a little spongy? I added a 11/32 inch plywood floor which I treated and carpeted. However, it feels a little bouncy under foot when I stand up and move around. As you pointed out, maybe it is just the nature of this kind of “plastic” boat. Would like to hear your thoughts. Enjoyed your video.

[@fishingwithjett5373]

Hi Steve, I installed my floor 3 yrs ago using 3/4 inch plywood, outside of it shrinking a little my floor has remained rock solid. I'm around 200lbs an I've never felt any flex while standing in my boat. So I'd say definitely go thicker and you should be good and solid. Thanks for your continuous support it's really nice hearing from people who find my content helpful. 👍🏾

[@steveb.1701]

Jett: Appreciate your input on the plywood floor. As you point out, the flex I am feeling in the floor has to do with the thickness of the plywood. Fortunately, I do not fish standing up. At 78, my balance is not what it used to be. Young fellows like you can fish upright!!!!

Good question, I have a few videos of my family fishing with me on my channel. Feel free to checkout my content. Two people can fish comfortably on it just remember it's 10ft long. Stability remains solid you just have to get use to another person moving around in the boat. Just like any other boat you just have to manage the weight load you carry. I always make sure that I balance my tackle even as possible. I think you'll be very happy with it.

Have you had any problems with getting water in the hull inside the pontoons? I hear some people complain about this problem while others never mention it. My guess is the people who leave theirs outside and uncovered, or fish a lot in the rain end up with water in the hull because the seam where the boat joins together is not water tight. That`s the only place it could get in unless you knocked a hole in the bottom somewhere. How has this been for you?

I've heard those same things before but I honestly have never had that problem at all.

How much one of those costs

[@fishingwithjett5373]

I've had mine for 3 years now but I think they sale in the range of $700-$1,000 depending on what store you go too. Academy Sports have them for now online for $829. They do have them on sale a couple times a year. For example Black Friday sale! Thanks for watching!👍🏾

@@fishingwithjett5373 Cool. My cousin is looking for one. I just got a kayak from that brand. It's still cold up here in Illinois, so I'm not going on the water till June.

[@fishingwithjett5373]

I agree number one got be price. New boat at that price not two payments on 15,16 footer al. Fishing boat.

[@fishingwithjett5373]

Yes yes that price range is #1

[@yeahman1756]

bruh it's a pond bass raider, not a lake raider. you like that strong transom, get a 12-14 aluminum boat. that transom isn't really made for outboard motors, rather a 55lb thrust minnkota in my opinion.. you're probably better off with them 4 stroke china 52cc made outboard engines at the most.. lol

[@fishingwithjett5373]

Oh okay cool. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍🏾

[@Budget.bass.fishing]

As far as width goes they can’t change it they want it to fit in a truck . Everything else I agree with

[@fishingwithjett5373]

Yeah, I definitely see where you are coming from. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. Go Catch'em 👍🏾
