This gives some reasons as to why I selected the STACER Outlaw 429, some issues I faced, and how I have it set up. I fish mainly in estuaries for flathead, whiting, and bream.

Thanks Neil. A friend has the Explorer Trophy and is very happy with it. The Quintrex Renegade is the equivalent to the Outlaw. However, talking to someone only yesterday they felt the Quiny was too expensive compared to Outlaw. Shame you don't have a local dealer. Both out of the same stable though. Bit of a bummer re delivery time.

Nice honest review, well done. I bought the Renegade, it's interesting to see differences between our rigs. Mine has the tackle box locker in the rear casting deck. My console looks the same as yours, but I enclosed the large hole in the front and put my rod holder across it and works well. I also fitted led lighting all around the underside of the console, and its fantastic at night.

Hi Fabian. You are right - paint does look good. But protecting it can be a real chore. The boat ramp I use has a pontoon with the pilons coming up on one side. These pilons are protected by wire cages (is suspect to stop feet slipping through the opening) that come right to the edge of the pontoon. Unless you have a small tinny your paint work runs down the side of these. So painted boats are reluctant to use this side. Got to wonder some times.

Good and honest review. Oxidisation is nothing new to aluminum boats and its why i wouldnt pay for a painted hull. If the Stacer's ride is good, the ride of the Quintrex equivalent is far superior in a chop due to its "blade hull" I think Stacer have address this with the new Revolution hull so if anyone is looking at these on the second hand market not which one you are looking at. These are great boats and I own a larger 460. Easily the best tin boat I have ever had.

Hey I just watched this and I have the same boat but there's little differences I'm not sure why. I had the same surprise as you, the rear hatch was missing even tho when I ordered the boat it was there, I was disappointed too. The other odd thing is that I don't have a rear hatch in the floor for the battery, instead it's under the bigger splash well and I have to reach it by taking the portable fuel tank out and twisting my body upside down to reach it.... 😟 I don't have the underfloor tank, I wanted it but $2400 extra is a lot.. Overall I like the boat but I'm paranoid about the paint bubbles, I read in the manual to expect them too. I like how comfortable these boats are, I used to break my spine in a heavy fiberglass boat but these seem to fly over choppy waters. I've been using Meguiar's waterless car wash and wax all over the hull and it seems to have helped the paint so far. I wish Yamaha had something like vessel view, I do like my Yamaha but I've had to spend more to be able to see information about the motor. I don't use the live bait well either but I'm thinking of filling it with ice and putting beer in it and then the ice will drain itself 👍

@fishingwiththefossil.6199 2 жыл бұрын
As you have noticed the hull really cuts through the chop. My previous boat would have bounced across it. Still a very comfortable boat to fish from. Something I failed to mention in my review is the trailer wheels locking up when parked for a few days. Can take some effort to get them rolling, then all OK. At times I have to hitch up to free them. Have started to spray lanolin on them as I suspect that the problem is rust.

Well I would call that false advertising/fraud. You were shown a bigger boat plated for 5ppl and you got a smaller/lighter boat plated for 4ppl. You park that boat beside the older hull you were shown and its a big difference. Stacer/Quintrex dealers are using the old photos of the bigger/original 429 and showing internal shots of the new 420.... This is purely cost cutting and ease of manufacturing using the 440 casting decks in the 420 with the older 419 outlaw hull. Soon as I pointed this out you get blocked or deleted

The other thing to watch when drilling your holes it that the plate allows for a lock to be fitted. On the Minnkota if it is too far from the edge then a lock can't be fitted.

Hi Tom. Replied to this earlier today but God only knows where it went. Not sure I want to be responsible for your boat selection. Re electrolysis - you are going to go nuts over this topic. Have a read of at least the first two pages of this forum discussion. www.ausfish.com.au/vforum/showthread.php/207486-New-Boat-Grounding-Question. My battery is directly earthed to the metal isolation switch mounting bracket.. The electrolysis shown in my video does not appear to be getting any worse. I have added some other electrical devices. I installed a buss bar under the console and directly connected the positive and negative runs to the battery via another isolation switch. All devises connect to buss bar. Hope this helps.

Just about everyone will have a take on this. This is what I did. Started with installing a 110Ah deep cycle battery. Once on site I only use the electric and it can be running continuously for over six hours with no problem. I installed it under the left side front hatch. My model has a flat carpeted floor under front hatches which made this easy. Obviously don't know about your purchase. I also fitted a waterproof breaker under the same hatch. Can't remember which gauge wire I used. However your dealer should be able to help here. On the deck front wall to the left of the anchor well I fitted an Anderson plug. So wiring goes from Anderson plug, through wall, down to breaker then on to battery. Hope this helps. For the compass I fed power from the crank battery. This is because I installed a buss bar under the console to support a number of other devices. I mentioned this in my review.
