Great to learn about a use case for an Avator electric! Looking forward to seeing more from your experience keeping the ocean cleaner!

Went and looked at one of these at a local dealer. Its a great concept but the price is way too high for what it is. Maybe at a lower price of 8K it would be more appealing.

[@seemoretoys5944]

Yeah, I'd go aluminum with a nice 4-stroke 15HP and a trailer for much less. Thanks for watching and your comment!

@@seemoretoys5944 yeah I'm currently looking at building a skiff out of a 1436 aluminum.

[@FloridaRaider]

I like it but a little pricey. I'd buy if around $7-8k

[@ReelEmN]

Should be $4k cheaper.

Ultimately the market will decide. Thanks for watching and your comment!

This boat is $13,000. Take away the motor, how much is the boat cost? $9 - $11k ????? Pure highway robbery for a plain boat, especially for a plastic that do crack.

[@seemoretoys5944]

To my eye, the video Mercury had made is to appeal to non-boaters that are environmental types with more money than sense. They'll spend more $$$ because, you know, it's green. Ah... Marketing and advertising.

If you take off 4k for a trailer and 20 hp mercury outboard its 8k !!!! For the boat. Way to expensive.

[@seemoretoys5944]

Trailer would be about $2K. Merc 9.9hp 4-strk $2.7K. An aluminum boat would be way cheaper. But plastic has it's advantages. Thanks for watching and your comment!

@@wazup3333 Aluminum, nice wheels. You could buy a cheap ass trailer if you roll that way. It will work. Thanks for watching and your comment!

[@invincibleeast4164]

It looks ugly compared to a lot of the real boat out there.

[@seemoretoys5944]

That's what I said about Carolina Skiff boats when they 1st came out. They soon became the 1 selling small boat, but mostly because they were relatively inexpensive and a great value for the $$$. Thanks for watching and your comment!

[@Rxking713]

It actually looks great. But the price is way too much.
