Thanks for sharing the behind the scenes of how these actually happen. Very rare for businesses to show how they do stuff. Never really thought about how these things go together, some great insight.

@@MrAcuta73 yeah on a short boat, a simple well would be best. On longer 6m plate, usually a pod of some sort. I have an old 80s 5m tinny and just built up the transom height with a XL motor length, but for new boats I’d expect a sort of well. I think many tinny brands under 5m design it poorly with such low transoms

@SammyHitzkeFishing

Жыл бұрын

The reality of that one is if you want a tiller steer like I did you can’t have a closed in splash well or have a pod style mounting for your outboard. There would be no where for the tiller are to go. The tinny does have a adequate splash well in it, certainly a lot more then most other boats of a similar size. This boat will never be in a situation where I have to back down hard on a fish in ocean chop, in every day estuary and inshore fishing water won’t come the back at all. I’d say a low transoms would be a lot of issue on a 5m + boat, not a 4.2m 🍻🍻🍻

@@SammyHitzkeFishing Mine is tiller too and I just built up the transom a bit higher as I mentioned (100mm or so). I saw lots of people have water coming over the back when prawning at Nudgee and we only had minimal which I was happy about. But anyway, just personal preference for me. Absolutely mint boat, what a dream! Cool hull design, seen SeaAdex take on the same sharp hull at the front too, maybe to get close to a ‘flare’ style, is it a new hull style? I like it.

Right!? Aussies can build boats on another level. I looked up pricing on these and they are surprising cheap too. About 9k USD for basic package of boat in video. Sadly, I think thats about what our riveted POS options are running here in the states these days. Even the tried and true jet sled builders up here in the PNW have been skimping more on materials to lower their cost and maintain margins.

Looks solid. What is the weight?

Might want to look into an acr(automatic charging relay) that way outboard charges start battery until it gets to a certain voltge(full) then it takes the excess charge and uses it to charge a second battery...so either a second backup starting battery or your trolling motor battery. This keeps your starting battery fully charged and gives you ability to top off trolling motor charge in between spots. Blue sea systems sells acr's in a kit with battery switch or individually depending on your needs. With your motor the 65a rated acr should be all you need.

After having my 440 Razor S for just on 2 months you will enjoy it, they are super stable, smooth riding and exceptionally dry for an open boat, plus significantly more solid than any standard production boat. I'm pretty sure my hull and the trailer will probably outlast me.

Sweet boat, no doubt, but what is with the gaping hole in the stern? Any outboard boat needs a splash well in rough water. A splash well keeps the ocean out . Any wavelet over a foot high , from the stern, will come in the boat the way it is. Hell, even chopping the throttle to stop in calm water is likely to have water thru the motor cut out, much less backing into a following chop....So easy to fix, A full Splash Well, as high as the sides, will make all the difference.....JE

@SammyHitzkeFishing

Жыл бұрын

For an estuary and inshore boat the transom won’t be an issue at all. Keeping mind if I’m heading offshore I’ll take my big boat. A full height, sealed splash well also means you can’t run a tiller steer motor which is what I was chasing as well 🍻🍻

Plenty of grubs in the comments section. I have a similar size boat and do very well from it. Can you do a video mounting the deck wash?
