IS IT STABLE? (Bass Tracker 175 Stability Test)

[@kylecrawford5103]

I just bought the same boat a few weeks ago. With 20 gallons of fuel, 3 batteries, and the 4 stroke 75 all at the back, she does sit low there. Not to mention filling the livewell. Which means in choppy water, some water comes in the bilge hole. Someone suggested installing an in line check valve. So I'll keep an eye on that. I think the side to side stability would improve if we kept more weight in our front compartments, but it's not unstable enough for me to want to lose speed and performance. Overall it's a fine "middle of the road" bass boat. It beats the heck out sitting in a 12' John boat with a 9.9 on the back.

Great video! I have the same boat and I fish w three often. Never felt like it is too unstable. Great little boats Tracker makes

[@BentRodBassin]

Absolutely!

[@EntertainedOrNot]

Can you do a short video with three people I'm curious how it does as I'm looking to get same type boat but unsure if three will work

[@JT_70]

I’ve been surprised at how well it handles in rough water. It does sit low in the stern with 3 batteries, a tank of gas and a 75hp. My only complaint is that the front compartments are not sealed boxes and moisture can rise from the hull into the boxes, especially when caught in heavy downpours that put a lot of rain in the hull.

I just ordered this same boat it'll be my first bass boat to. Can't wait for it to get here.

[@BentRodBassin]

Sweet!!!!

[@gamecock3352]

How long is the lead time for delivery?

[@Hillbilly1175]

About a month and a half.

I have the very 1st year a 2001 all welded hall design 175 I can stand on every gunnel corner of that boat front and back it's very interesting it does have a Little Rock side aside but once you get enough weight in that boat it's very very stable and you can stand on the corners you can stand on the rubber mat at the bow of the boat and fish I've had 2 guys fight one fish on the very back of the Corner of the boat it's a very stable boat I don't know if the new or ones are any different but I'm very happy with stability

[@rbowman319]

Did u do some custom paint work to the boat, can't see the sides much but the rails look awesome.

[@BentRodBassin]

I wrapped it 🛸

[@DDAWGVlogs]

i wonder if you could put weights on the front and it would make a difference

[@THEJOKER2224]

Hi! For some reason my livewell starts filling up with water after I launch the boat (about a third full) is there a way to stop that from happening? Thanks 😊

[@jejoko]

Nice boat. Honest question. Why do bass trackers sell so cheep used?? I've seen used Jon boats more expensive than bass trackers

[@BentRodBassin]

Sounds like a great deal!

[@claynfeathered482]

How is the rod storage in the boat, does it hold rods over 7’0”?

[@BentRodBassin]

I have a couple 7’ 6” rods, the fit alright, I think the tips might bend a bit at that length when stowed away.

[@andrewcummins4445]

Remove the tubes, there a aluminum it is mounted to. Cut that out. I build my own rods and it bends them to much. If left for a long period of time the rod will have the bend in it. Removing the tubes will allow the rods to go in more straighter and you can double the amount you can put in.

[@matthewburlbaw4423]

Looking at a tracker tx 17 what's the difference? Stable enough? All electric with 10 batteries on it.

[@BentRodBassin]

Ten batteries, wtf

[@matthewburlbaw4423]

All electric lakes by me

[@BentRodBassin]

The tx 17 is not as wide as the 175 which is more stable.

[@mybassfishingaddiction]

Wait for the wake boat to come by.

[@twopassionsfishing386]

Great content friend good work👍

[@two-wheels7397]

Are Trackers all aluminum?

[@BentRodBassin]

Yes

[@tracycampbell4526]

Do you have issues with cavitation with your 175? Mine cavitates on plane at anything other than full down trim.

[@BentRodBassin]

No cavitation at all, trimmed up to 5.5k at WOT

[@JohnAmes]

Great video my friend 👍

[@YourNextCast]

That is a really nice boat.

[@BentRodBassin]

Thx it’s a good setup ✌️

[@alexrussell5980]

You call that stable? Had a 190 tx if someone was with me I would have to tell them not to move anymore then they absolutely had to

[@BentRodBassin]

Lol

[@matthewburlbaw4423]

I'm 260

[@clintperry799]

Dude it's not a deep v !

[@BentRodBassin]

It definitely isn’t a shallow v like a Ranger

[@harrisoncoulter1]

Clint perry it isn’t a deep v but it’s damn close

[@DavidCarlson-xo1if]

It is considered a Mod V
