I am going to build my own. Ordered a empty hull for 100 euro including shipping to Holland from a guy in the UK who makes several models. Then I can make it as cheap or as expensive as I want with the features I want on it. This one you have looks like a amazing first or budget bait boat, no nonsense does what it needs to be doing. Excellent review.

These independent tackle reviews are priceless..I'll be getting one 👍

Just bought one after watching this . Cracking review . Thanks

Well Carl, after watching your video I have made the purchase, I’ve been after one for ages but like you wouldn’t use it that often so didn’t want to spend a fortune... the weight is ideal, it looks good and your review was the reason I clicked buy... mines due mid November so I will do a video on the back of you and link you in... Great review mate, thanks for the time you took to give us all the information... Plus I’ve subscribed as I am sure there is more to come.. tight lines buddy 🎣🎣🎣

I have an expensive boat, but for the money this seems a pretty good boat. The only thing that I personally do not like is the light setup with them going off, great review Carl!

Cheapest I've seen the Lake Reaper new is £345. Where have you seen it cheaper please as I'm considering these two boats.

Nice video Carl, brought this bait boat a month ago, really has got me some bigger fish. Solid little boat. It has velcro under the battery and the cable tie is just to hold it in transit when buying boat.

Can't fault that for £180. My Waverunner Mk4 is a beast and in comparison, bit this thing does 90% of what mine does for a fifth of the price. Also I like how lightweight it looks. Mine will gas a bloody tonne. I bet the battery on mine alone nearly weighs as much as this boat...lol! Would I swap my Waverunner for this?......no! Would I consider buying this in the future?.........absolutely yes!

Type C charging cable from the mains supply

U could stick different colour reflective strips on each side so when the boat is "side-on" your headtorch will illuminate it & tell you which direction its headed (or u could stick starlight holders on the boat sides and use different coloured starlights) ... U could also reduce the "indicator lights" intensity by using some translucent coloured paper cover, like a sweet wrapper. If u were competant & if there was access, you could solder a small value (500 ohms ?) resistor in line with one of the leads feeding the LEDs.. looks like a great little boat and I would order one tomorrow ... but ... after brexit we (here in Ireland) are being hammered by import duty on gear now... bastards... 😒 Tight lines ... 😎👍☘️🍺
