I have the Stryker 380 Pro Hunter. It has survived the Sunshine Coast in Desolation Sound, a grizzly bear attack, a moose stepping on it and me 🤣.

Great video, thanks!

Ya I am super impressed and Jared the owner is awesome and creates so much good content on youtube to help us purchase the right boat and motor the first time! If you need an intro let me know.

after 50 hours on it over the last 45 days it is everything i wanted and more

A 15 hp can easily go up a medium sized rapids with shallow drive on with 500 pounds of weight (total weight) no problem. A 20 is gonna be perfect for your needs.

yes and it has been!!!

I am curious about how well it tows behind the boat. If I understood you correctly that is part of the plan. I was looking for something to possibly tow behind my boat or deflate and haul where I wanted to use it and reinflate.

Just towed it 280 nautical miles from squamish through desolation and down through the island back home over 6 weeks. tows super easy. I towed a sea doo last season, this is lighter, bigger and we put a foil and prawn traps and extra gas in it while it is being towed, works awesome!

very informative video! how many people does it comfortably hold?

thanks, it says 10, the other night we had 4 kids and 3 adults and it was no problem. But when you load it with crab and prawn traps, campng gear etc the space goes down, this is a big boat for our family but I am so glad I got this size!!

I see you choose to install the prop guard. Smart decision. I love my SIB. I'm sure you will enjoy yours as well.

Not sure if I should get 380 Pro or 420 Pro. 380 Pro should be more maneuvurable... lively.

Why stryker? These boats are heavy and are slower in comparison to other inflatables.

Durability matters out here on the west coast and when I looked at everything, nothing beat it and now after a full summer with it over 100 hours, would not change it for anything.

I have the same boat. Everything was thrown in the box and shipped poorly. The accessories are single stitched and ripped right away. My boat formed a hole on the third trip and it never was beached. I have a patch drying. now. The forward deck board is wood and it’s cheap. The transom is bent, I have a 25hp mercury. Extremely unhappy with the 11k I spent on motor and boat. I do not recommend Stryker. I recommend aluminum boat, holds up way better.

Sounds like you are hard on things, beach a boat on something sharp you may get a tear, that is not arranty as holes just dont happen, mine has the newer plastic/composite deck board so it is improved, not sure how you bend a 1 inch aluminum transom, unless shipping did that or you used it improperly. If you looking to beach a boat and hammer things on it yes an aluminum boat might be better for your use. I just spend 50 hours in the boat through desolation sound using it every day off our cabin cruiser, we used it for surf towing, prawning and cruising into shore, looks brand new and the bags on the front and sides are made in asia simple bags, I used them every day and are in perfect working order. My boat was in salt water for 45 days towed behind our boat, sitting and was covered with salt, i was it with warm soapy water and sprayed it with 303 and it looks brand new, one issue i had was the bimani clips had salt corrosion and were hard to open, a simple reel grease when i cleaned her up and working perfect...sorry you are not happy with yours.

Yes Aluminum like Stabicraft is much better choice, those boats are not sinkable

If you like to tow a trailer, why not buy an aluminum boat? Larger space, easy to install equipments, better performance, and longer lifespan!😇😊

Cool！By the way,What is the maximum speed of your 420 boat with a 20 horsepower motor? Can a 20 horsepower motor make your 420 boat planing ？Is the power sufficient for such a large ship ?👍👍👍@@DaveNorona
