Nice boat with big pluses and big minuses - one of which is the price.

[@jonno9891]

For once something is more expensive in Australia than in New Zealand. 27k for the explorer! Ouch!

[@Rexy888]

Yea ridiculous alright boats are getting to dear for the average person

[@ia6980]

Cant decide, stabi 1450 or Jetski seadoo trophy fisher.......any thoughts anyone? greatly appreciate

[@jiggyfishing5890]

the 1450 will hold its value longer and can take a mate out ...

[@floridaoutdooradventures8981]

Do you sell them in the USA?

[@scottypersia5715]

Regarding that footing you used to climb onto the boat from the trailer, 4:40 was that the same safety rating and design as the esky for a seat?

[@floridaoutdooradventures8981]

Can you power it with a bigger engine?

[@denrizza]

I would like to see a bass fishing model. IF it is worth it to you.

[@mudjerry]

what do these boats draft? river capable?

[@kevinkrotzer2758]

Gas tank in floor or two on sides 🤔

[@Multisteer-India]

👌👌

Most aluminium boats are unsinkable, but does not mean it’s not unflippable. They will stay afloat once flipped. $50k with tote tanks, highway robbery

[@chrisoh6627]

Yep got my 420 Renegade for 20k F50 alloy trailer etc. I've done 2000km in total offshore and no cracks!

[@damienrichards7959]

I have this boat and the fuel stat is way out

[@gutmincer2]

nice boat but sorry way too over priced

[@superwag634]

The horseshoe is good for stability. But it’s also good for stability upside down if a breaker catches you side on and flips yoy. If you cop a large breaker and water enters your boat, the self draining deck doesn’t work as the whole boat sits low in the water. The point is, open boats are never as safe as decked boats. But these are as good as a small open boat gets. Don’t stray too far from land 😅

[@truenoae8668]

not bad for someone dat pretty small dat boat suits me

[@TidesofAdventure]

46k and not even a built in fuel tank, that's a bit rude

[@TidesofAdventure]

@@antoncarmoducchi6057 why wouldn't you? Comes standard on most boats that size, 70L underfloor in my boat and gives me around 250km range

[@ME-qq2dc]

It is really inaccurate to claim the pontoons give it the stability. Yes they are stable due to the chines the underwater shape of the pontoons create, but the enclosed, foam filled or not pontoons only add reserve positive floatation. The fact the pontoons are sealed do not make it more stable.

[@FishingMonthly]

You are correct.

[@today347]

You try pushing a fully inflated car tyre tube under the water...

[@ME-qq2dc]

@@today347 Really. That's your argument. I said they give reserve positive bouyancy so your point agrees with me. The pontoons give bouyancy but the underwater shape that they produce i.e the large chines are what give stability. Not the fact they are sealed. If you cut big holes in the pontoons from the inside of the boat stability would not change but if flooded the bouyancy certainly would be.

[@today347]

@@ME-qq2dc oh my your very upset arnt you. I have a quintrex, so when you stand against the side it slips down. In a downward motion into the water. It compounds when my two teenage boys also come to the side. I now have this particular boat and because of the positive boyancey it doesn't slip as much under the water equalling more stability.. It's funny you know so much. Do you have one???? . This is the reason we brought one and it works amazingly for us. If you have one comment.. If you don't then shut ya trap. ..

[@today347]

@@ME-qq2dc I understand that reverse chines help so much with stability.. But science is science when you have an outer ring of stability and positive stability .. It makes for more stability at rest. Tell me I'm wrong...

hate stabicraft own two they are great in smooth sea but back breakers in the rough don't waste your money
