Panga Update After 100 Hours

[@douglasthompson2740]

If you have ever used shock absorber pedestal seats you wouldn''t want to be without them. In a chop especially in a flatter bottom boat they can really make a difference. They are just plain way more comfortable. Very worthwhile if you have any back problems. Several good makes and they start from around $120 each.

A quick connect garden hose fitting works better for fresh water flush through the engine. should give it a try.

[@robertvose7310]

glad ur stoked with the boat. i would add more bracing on the t top. just my thought.

Hi. My wife and I live in La Paz. A year ago we bought a panga 21 ft and are very happy. Tomorrow on Sunday we are going to Loreto to see friends. If you have time, we could meet with you.

Good information Chris thank you!

[@noerodriguez6150]

You sound overall, happy 😃 is the t top strong enough do you recall item. .?

Try inserting an insulated fish bag in your fish box. They come in various sizes up to as long a your box.

Hi, friend. I like the way you designed the panga, how many feet is it?

[@BlueRockAdventures]

Thank you! The panga is 24 feet long.

[@robertvose7310]

smart on the batteries! getting towed sucks...

[@BlueRockAdventures]

Thanks amigo!

[@robertvose7310]

get a used thermo molded ice chest as they are awesome...

[@robertvose7310]

put the yeti type cooler on the front deck and now a casting platform...

[@justinaces3300]

hi.do u put a foam or any floatation under the hull?

[@BlueRockAdventures]

A sealed air pocket was glassed in in the bow and stern.

[@posterchild37]

Who made the t-top?

[@BlueRockAdventures]

I don't remember but, we got it on Amazon. If you watch our video tour the info is there...

[@posterchild37]

@@BlueRockAdventures I think I found them they are made by oceansouth, is it rigid enough for you or is it flimsy? Can you use it for handholds while motoring? Have you mounted pole holders on it? I’m worried about the durability at speed and trailering….

[@posterchild37]

@@BlueRockAdventures let me know your thoughts on it please thanks!!

[@BlueRockAdventures]

@@posterchild37 we really liked it. It does wobble a bit but is plenty sturdy to hang on to in rough seas. The kit is customizable so attach it as high as possible on the console.

Can't believe they didn't use closed cell insulation for your fish box n live well.....Also better drains with some weather stripping....Live n Learn........ be well.

[@robertvose7310]

how warm today?

[@BlueRockAdventures]

Around 95!

[@OzDIY63]

I would recommend lining your fish box with closed cell polyurethane foam and glassing in. Save a lot of space without the cooler. I’m not experienced but it’s pretty easy you can see in my centre Console build where I glassed foam into the gunwales here kzbin.info/www/bejne/qafMp6WKmJiIiZY

[@BlueRockAdventures]

Yes, that sounds like the best solution. I'll check out your video, thanks!

[@JohnBraman413]

line the fish box with styrofoam.

[@dsworks9760]

Should insulate your fish box.. so your ice can last longer...

[@BlueRockAdventures]

You're right. Thanks!
