I just wish boats like this were rated for a little more weight. Similar sized inflatables can hold like 5 people, a thousand pounds or more.

I agree. Inflatable boats have a super high capacity. I found a cool 10’ at West Marine but it was $2,300! Couldn’t believe it.

Added 40 Min Kota to the front a Bimini top sand tan two clamp swivel boat seats tan and a 1996 Mercury 2 stoke looks has good as it sounds is written.I Love it ,fits in the back of my pick up.kool for the money.

Don’t add any un needed weight keep it simple

I got a thick rubber door matt from Home Depot for the floor. It fits perfectly and is easy to stand on now. 👍

I know these are inexpensive boats, but my problem with them is the thermal formed polypropylene. they’re just disposable if you put a hole-in-one. I know they make gator batch to fix holes for boats like this, but hear me out. Few years ago had an accident my kayak where the strap came off, got caught in the wheel of the trailer and whipped around it just ripped up in my kayak. A friends’s father taught me about plastic welding. Since my kayak was made of polyethylene, I was able to repair that kayak with almost no visible side of damage. That’s when I learned the difference. I would personally stay away from these, but I also have the option to buy something a little bit more expensive out of a material. I’ve had to try to repair six polypropylene boats. Two we were able to fix them with gator patch, the third just had to be trashed and the rest was not worth trying. I repaired close to 100 polyethylene boats and all repaired with scrap recycle #2 plastic and a heat gun. One boat we pulled out of the woods, sanded it down with some 600 grit sandpaper then I hit the whole boat with propane torch and it looks like new. Also, here’s a tip. If you have a vehicle with black plastic bumpers on your vehicle, when you go to sell it wash off those black plastic parts and hit it with a propane torch and you see that oxidation go away. I learned that from a friend who owns a used car dealership. That is how they’re able to make those cars look better. Doesn’t take much heat. I enjoyed the video and can’t wait to see you pimp it out. 😉

I saw one the other day at Tractor Supply. Sumbitch looked heavy......I know most people would want aluminum but I'd rather flip over in a plastic one than an aluminum one....

Absolutely. These things are stuffed with foam. They weigh 110lbs which is more or less the same as aluminum

I got one from Tracker Supply about a month ago. It came pre-wired from the back to the bow with 10 gauge wire for the front trolling motor. I bought a Pexmor 46lb trolling motor for the front and a Hangkai 6hp 2 stroke motor for the rear. Also bough two nice seats on Amazon. I got a 12' flatbed trailer from Tractor supply also. 😃👍

Awesome! How fast does the 6 push you? I want one

The only thing I’ll say about the Prowler is it handles choppy water pretty well. I had a Bass Hunter before that, and that wasn’t good at all in choppy water. I would really like to get something that handles a larger motor. Looking forward to the custom touches. It would be great if you could find a 250 pound 70 year old to put in it.

Plus actually super common around here. Don’t go out on nasty days and people fish off anything. Pretty awesome tiny boat setups around here in FL!

Looks like fun I get one, but I don’t have a place to keep it.

You think 3 people could fish comfortably with this? And 3 people I mean adult, teenager and 2nd grader?

Try 55yo 6,5 295 lol.
