    To anyone who is watching this now and thinking of getting one, PLEASE DON’T buy if you’re going to be fishing big waters in Europe. Especially if it gets windy - they’re hopeless, worse than hopeless in fact. I took one to France a couple of years ago and it ended up in the back of the van and I hired a “proper bit of kit” from uk bespoke bait boats” and now own one. My fishing is mainly in Europe with 3-4 trips a year and unless you’re fishing a “small” (couple of acres max) venues that allows boats here or abroad don’t waste your money. I love Ridgemonkey as a company and the lads that work for them - question … have you ever seen one of their anglers use one? Nope - they use the BBB - lot of money initially, but if you’re serious about getting it right, it’s the difference between a toy and a tool - simple as that. Look up PD34 which is a fairly old boat now but they are awesome with lots of mods that can be added with great customer service too.

    Just got back from chase lakes France fantastic water by the way I used the hunter 750 all week it's a fantastic little boat good at getting in the snaggy areas battery life is good I noticed it's strong constructed well so there is no flimsy parts especially on the hopper a metal ram pushes in and out to release it so no hinges. It has decent speed controls are a bit sensitive but that's the only fault I can find awesome boat.

    great little boat, would prefer it to sit a little higher in the water though, as on windy days my batterys slots slowly start filling

    How does it drop rigs? What distance can it cover before it loses signal? How long does a battery last?

    Is it ok to leave the batteries still connected in the boat if not being used or should you disconnect them ?

    Hows the 750 been after your initial review?, im after a new boat myself and I like the split Hull where your hookbait goes in from the top instead of underneath, and pro,s/cons now you've had it for a while..

    do you send them out with the bail arm off or just slack drag? i was told if you do it with a loose drag it twists your line? never used one and just ordered this boat so was curious

    There’s nothing wrong with these boats. I paid £400 for mine and it does everything you need a boat to do. If you can’t steer this boat then you have something wrong with you…. There simple !!!
