This Boat is so Cool - 40yrs later

[@hummer4u2nv11]

Oh yes these have always been great boats for me and my family. They are dependable boats and we have used several as rentals for our business. I was actually at the Bass Pro Shop in Jackson Mississippi last month and saw THIS newer one on display. They are very nicely set up and overall great boat for the money.

[@ronaldmcdonald3965]

Thanks for the tour. I saw it at my local store.

[@davidking8457]

Roland I grow up watching you so glad your doing your on channel

[@OldManCatfishing]

Roland , I remember when you fished out of the old boat when you had your show on TBS. I went to Amarillo, TX. and they had one left and I bought it. I miss that boat. By the way it came with a flasher on it. Thanks for this video. Brought back a lot of great memories.

[@unclebuzz6913]

10 GRAND NOT BAD. I'VE BEEN WATCHING YOU SINCE YOU STARTED,BILL ,JIMMY,THEN HANK.. I AM MID 50'S NOW AND STILL LOVE WATCHING ... GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AND KEEP IT GOING

[@dustinhunt7440]

How come everyone forgetting about Rick Clunn the first bassmaster classic winner ever

[@leonclinton5907]

I loved you my entire 32 year life. I want you to know you are the best!

[@RetroBassin]

Roland, she is a beauty. Hope you outfitted her with some 1978 electronics! I just installed a Humminbird Super Sixty on mine...

[@RolandMartinOutdoors]

Last week I upgraded mine with a Bob's jack plate, stainless shallow water prop, cavitation plate and a power pole.i can get up in less than 2 feet of water and run 8" of water all jacked up. 3 days ago I filmed on the lowest negative tide of the year and did great! We were the only boat in that entire area that could jump all the sand bars and run all the shallow flats to get the honey hole ,pot holes that held all the fish in Tampa Bay!

[@JoEyOpiZzA]

Get mine May 24th Roland, saw the video of the 3 legends showing it off and had to have it. More videos of you fishing in it would be great.

[@bustermerritt2303]

"Old school" Bass Tracker!!!!!! I love it!!!!!

[@jeffwilson4268]

I have a 1981 bass tracker 3 with a 50hp mercury 2stroke still running strong love it.

[@wraithofwar4688]

roland martin big bass double willow leaf spinner bait....best spinner bait ever made for huge bass and crappie! thank you Roland for teaching kids how to fish before things like ipods and internet!

[@steveriddle6058]

Love that you have a channel my dad got an autograph from you at grandpa pidgin in Arnold mo years back

[@welterdavin5486]

yay one more vid of you browsing the internet ! awesome !

[@Enoch1970]

The only problem is that people aren't making as much for the average dollar than 40 years ago. Still love you Roland.

[@DwayneMcguire]

Hilarious funny clip,,,Definitely great deal ,,,good stuff Roland 👍🎣

[@tc9084]

I met hank Parker last summer he spoke at my uncles non profit organization he’s a great man 👍🏼🇺🇸🙏🏼

[@nautiquecowboynautiquecowb5317]

Used to watch Roland Martin and Orlando Wilson on TV I didn't know he's still around very cool it's bass it's monster Bass

[@bradbechlyb9273]

Good video Roland, a boat like that parked next to a high dollar boat will catch the same fish. It's not the boat that catches the fish, but the person on the boat

[@robertverbeek9751]

Cool boat 🚣‍♂️👍

[@aua8867]

Love Mine! It's a great boat!

[@dustinhunt7440]

Been looking to get a nice but inexpensive boat and pound for pound and bang for buck this looks like the deal right here SON!

[@AG.Floats]

Such an amazing boat for 10K I'm a lone wolf this boat would be perfect for me. Maybe one day!

[@retrocny5625]

I almost bought one. When the BPS flyer came out and I saw the $10,000 price tag, I about spit up my coffee. It looked like a lot of boat for that price. I ended up deciding against it for various reasons, mainly because I don't think it's enough boat for some of the lakes I fish but it really piqued my interest. They sold WAY more of these then they thought. I was told they expected to sell 600 boats tops, and in the end they had orders for 10 times that number...so it looks like a lot of people are gonna be stuck waiting for their boats to come in. I ended up getting into a bigger boat, a deep-v boat, but who knows...I have a feeling in a couple years, there's gonna be a lot of these on the used market due to people looking to upgrade or get into something bigger. If I can snag one up then for a good price, I still may do it.

[@hollandsauce8422]

RetroCNY .... sup man. I was one of the first to get these. My brother got the deep V-16 SC, it’s the v-hull equivalent. Pricing and application is why I got this one. I spent about $13k after everything and upgrades my brother spent about $18k but he got a 50hp motor. What I don’t like about it. Lack of storage space is #1, trolling motor and fish finder is numbers 2-3. I’m putting in a stereo this off season, 70 ipilot trolling, and a lowrance 7HDI. Should be all set after. The deep v has more storage, feels a bit roomier, but same crappy fish finder and trolling motor. He’d be in it at about $19k. The Tracker is not even close to as fast as my bass boat, but for the price is a great value. No regrets yet

[@nathansomers7388]

Maryland here love you and you son both that’s crazy what you said about small ponds cause it’s true

[@designtransportation8467]

glad to see you bought a drone

[@HOOKEMINTHEMOUTHKAYAKFISHING]

still looks good!!!

[@pimpshack81]

So this thing is priced at 10k??

[@pimpshack81]

Breaks my heart that I was late knowing about these ... 😢😢😢

[@redd1911]

Where have you been? Or are you just not big on fishing?

[@pimpshack81]

redd1911 under a rock I guess... and 2 small kids ...

[@redd1911]

Hey! It ain't to late. Go get you one and maybe you can take the little ones with you if they're not too small. It could be fun. I miss my grandmother, she started me in fishing

[@pimpshack81]

redd1911 in the process of getting a tracker pro 170... very soon 🤘🤘

[@Leatherneck-jk9ew]

That boat is nice.

[@bassnazi4713]

You said it, no matter what people can, or feel better, taking an aluminum boat into spots they wouldn't take their fiberglass one.

[@AString95]

Nice boat

[@cobnutts]

Almost impulse bought one of these about a month ago at bass pro!

[@Obi1kenobi10]

I've been looking at this boat for YEARS! Some day......some day I'll be able to save the $$$ for the down payment.

[@howabouthetruth2157]

It really is a great "medium/small" boat for 10 grand.......ESPECIALLY WITH THAT ALL-WELDED ALUMINUM HULL AND A 40 HP OUTBOARD & TROLLING MOTOR!!! That right there is a deal that will be hard to beat dollar for dollar for new "starter boats" in bass fishing, crappie, etc. I hear they sold out everywhere. Surely they can build them to order after the fact.

[@jameslakes5019]

🎉😊 I took off rims put chrome wheels keep original rims back up if flat occurs😊

[@robertleppold5421]

BSP cut off sales the night before I tried put in my order. They didn't even run the deal through the advertised April 15th date to get a cover and gift card.

[@carsonlamb4354]

I want that boat

[@unsavablesoul7275]

Surprised Scott doesn’t have this thing decked out

[@JustDoinFlorida]

I love that commercial

[@brandywineangler6748]

Not sure if “Buddy” Martin actually reads the comments but if so this is your old fishing friend Floyd Parks’s son. Floyd says hi! He is still catching bass-and everything else-in Maryland. Lanny (Wolfe) Parks also says hi.

[@RolandMartinOutdoors]

My long time fishing buddy, Floyd Parks, it's great hearing from your son! I hear you and Lanny are doing great! Retired from the bench after about 50 years of service, wow! I know you are still one of the most avid fishermen ever so let's get together. I'm coming to Maryland to see my sister Joan and brother Bobby this summer.

[@brandywineangler6748]

Roland Martin Outdoors just passed this along to Floyd. I know he would love to connect with you when you are in Md.

[@brandywineangler6748]

Roland Martin Outdoors Floyd wanted me to ask you if you have caught any “Hinkas” lately...

[@leonclinton5907]

You should have them sponsor your video. You can link it in the description and get PAID!

[@Budpimp92784]

Tried to get one myself, but they sold out quick. I'm not a fan of Mercury engines, but for under $10000 this boat is a steal.

[@bassnazi4713]

Budpimp92784 yep, people charge close to that for some falling apart, and you get a warranty lol!

[@howabouthetruth2157]

Can't they simply BUILD YOU ONE TO ORDER??? I did that back in 2004 with the "then" new G3 HP170 bass boat. It was hands down the BEST all welded aluminum bass boat in its class back then, and they too......all sold out before I could buy one. I looked at all of the competitor's 17 ft welded aluminum high performance bass boats, and kept coming back the the G3. But a simple phone call to the G3 factory with the assistance of a local dealer only took minutes. 3 months later, my brand new G3 HP170 bass boat, motor, trailer package arrived at the dealer. We even took care of all the financing & red tape as we waited for them to build my boat-to-order. Everything went well and on-time as promised. Just sayin'.

[@Budpimp92784]

No they couldn't. They simply sold so many they stopped taking orders about halfway through the 1 month promotion. Tracker will probably be making these boats all year to fill the orders. Not surprising considering this is basically a $15k boat for $10k

[@howabouthetruth2157]

Oh......I get it now........the "$10,000 bass boat" was nothing more than "on sale while supplies last" kind of promotion. Well that sucks. And they won't be making any more........at least.....not for "10 grand".

[@bassnazi4713]

I think it really overwhelmed them. Mainly they hooked people up for the anniversary though so figure the profit margin was minimal compared to most of their offers.

[@AntQuick1102]

Man, if only....

[@jdvanheerden3369]

Hey Roland! When you making another vid?

[@mendesoto]

why would you only make a "few" heritage models. It seems like such a great deal

[@gljay]

Selling as parts always gets more money. Take the motor apart and get even more money as parts. I will stick with a roundabout boat and trolling motor.

[@ericsaffrey8067]

$9,995.00 is pretty incredible. Is that just for the boat? What size is it? The Anniversary boat I see on Tracker Marine's website is over $27,000.00 US.

[@mendesoto]

hahahah. good point. . . . . where is it at?

[@CallUrDrop]

Sold out

[@opinionatedviewer7730]

Pleather i believe is what you were looking for. Theyre pleather seats

[@stephenjohnson111]

Will these ever be available again?

[@tn8141]

Did they give Bill Dance and Jimmy Houston a boat

[@GetzReel]

Looking at 4-5 month wait to get one. I looked into it. So that kinda sucks.

[@jasonpanozzo3317]

Is this a complete package?

[@RolandMartinOutdoors]

Yes and I added a Bobs jack plate, stainless prop, power pole, front GPS depth finder and cavitation plate

[@gm3amp88]

I love mine

[@csquaredfishing]

That is cool.

[@thehalftimeshow287]

Got my boat 2nd month they were out all up grades are done ausom boat

[@AntQuick1102]

I'm really in college just to make the money to buy a bass boat lol

[@owenhilton2045]

Was gunna get one didn't wanna wait long got a 1648 grizzly instead

[@pimpshack81]

If it’s truly priced at 10k I want one... can any one confirm price ?

[@borderland_upland]

Wished they wouldn’t have pulled the plug on them. I had intended to buy one.

[@trinkladd]

Great deal! U can have a 100,000 boat and not catch a fish. Gaurantee u can catch more fish in that boat, then sum guy in a big fancy one! Sign me up, I'll take two! They sold out, crap. I'll buy yours Mr Martin

[@23rubmrtnz]

It’s like a leather but it’s not leather lol 😂

[@jameslakes5019]

I got same boat but mine has 60 hp mercury 2 stroke sold 40 hp got used 60 hp mercury 2 stroke jack plate with minnkota 45 pound thrust trolling motor power poles 2 and custom cover goes 15 mph faster 40 hp 4 stroke

[@michaelmartin6348]

Nice boat but that live well just didn't look that big don't see how you're getting a 5 fish limit in there nice boat but not for tournaments would have to have bigger Live Well

[@michaelmartin6348]

Went to Bass Pro the other day and seen one and looked l at the Live Well the more I look at it the more I think it's actually a bait well but they call it a live well I don't even think it has enough room for one 5-pounder much less a couple other than that it's a nice boat for the money. I would definitely go to a boat/Fab shop and have them make a real live well

[@MRLomax-gc1fe]

basically same as the pro 160. I have a 160. Great boat but for the money go with the pro 170.

[@mendesoto]

thanks

[@CallUrDrop]

It’s a 160 layout with 170 dimensions.

[@chipsammich2078]

Lotta deals..

[@johngutkoska4240]

I'm borne and raised fishing Maryland waters. Send me a autograph? John Gutkoska 32 s Broadway Baltimore Maryland 21231. You are my idol and a truely legendary angler.

[@mattfarr1323]

Yeah great, Oh except they've been completely sold out and Un buy able for a good month and a half now.. so unless Tracker is going to pull some more out of their A$$ to meet the huge demand, why are we still hearing about it?

[@chadf4578]

Sure, only if you're lucky enough to have the cash to buy one in the first 4 months of being available... I hate PR stunts like this and is the reason I won't buy the 160!!

[@rickespanish1945]

Be cool if i could efford it😢

[@virg7340]

Oh yes, everything is the best when you get it for free.
