Two years later this motor is going strong kzfaq.infoUgkxBZWgzfpS2Jj7JqIHyaSZjyVHNUgCKCBf Just uploaded a video of it after 2 years. We use it probably a dozen days each year on our small raft.-original review- We got this motor the other day and tested it out. I don't have anything to compare it to, but it seems good to me. It has all the features advertised - the motor housing is metal. We will see how it performs longer term and I will revise this review if needed. Some initial observations:- Good thrust, moves our boat around really well- It comes with a circuit breaker but no switch - so there's no way to kill the motor other than yanking the connection off the battery. I installed an inline switch.- The mount bracket is plastic and I worry it might break- There are a number of plastic parts that I worry about, but the most important ones are metal or some kind of composite

Nice boat and yes, get a live scope for your boat!!!!!

There's a screw on the head of the trolling motor that you can remove and turn the shaft 180 degrees so you can use forward instead of reverse. Not sure what you paid but looks decent to me.

Aye Larry I had one at one point, you can leave the trolling motor up front just turn the head(speed control) around, its one screw, then the motor will be facing forward while you steer.

I had one of these bro, don’t bud a deck just cut a good board if you want to Mount the foot control and just sit it in the bottom of the boat,, I did a anchor system on mine as well, but you shouldn’t flip it, and you can get it in super shallow areas too we use to put mine in small creeks and float to the bigger places it ran into

Congrats Larry on the new boat! We lost it when you said, "All boats float for a little while, while they're sinking." Lmbo!! My wife said, "That's right Larry, check that sucker out before you get into deep water." Lol!! Again Congrats!!

Dude I have to same one! Owned it about two years it’s awesome for me. Welcome to the raider gang!

Have the same boat and have the upgraded mesh seats. Similar to your kayak seat. Only thing about turning the head on front trolling motor is you have to drop it in water farther so blades don't hit the pontoons when turning. Have a trolling motor on both front and back when two people are in it.

Man I love the bass raider! I just got a 10nxt.

Congrats on the new boat! You see those on LAKE ALLATOONA in Georgia. Very stable, 👍 yes. Considering that ALLATOONA is the 2nd largest man-made lake in Georgia and has wicked currents it's good for handling all that. That said, it only had one person on today. With two people watch your water line and the front in waves and chops .. not raised high and a square front-end doesn't do as well as your Salty in that stuff. I sure will enjoy seeing your videos on your boat too!

bro those little pond hoppers are the best I have 2 use them in my videos all the time for me and my dad . Great investment

Many years ago, I had a Bass Hunter boat that was just like that. I loved it and kept it until it got compromised because of sun damage. I didn't have a place like a garage to keep it out of the sun and weather. I miss it!

Mann I getting one of these

i call dibs on fishing in larrys new PELICAN!

Do a KZfaq search for converting a bow mount trolling motor to a transom mount trolling motor. Quite simple. You just take the head loose and rotate it 180 degrees.

larry how much was it

Nice boats. I have one. You are running your boat backwards... The battery hookup is the back of the boat.

I have one of these and it is about ten years old. It’s been left outside the whole time rain snow and everything even had a flood take it off the back of a pond dam a mile alway through the woods and in a river and got hung in a tree that was about 8 feet up after the water returned to normal. Still floats and functions fine, I used it yesterday. Through all the sun there isn’t any cracks or anything the only thing is the handle got torn off in the tree and halfway separated the top and bottom of the hill but with a few minutes of pulling and restappling it was back in operation and has no leaks.

Good looking boat.... hope you enjoy it.

more bait making would be awesome!! awesome content per usual

Let’s go bro I have the same exact model and I love it very sturdy fr 💪🏾💯keep up the good work bro

You can switch the head of the trolling motor around. It should be only one bolt holding it in place

Nice vid. I was wondering about those boats. They seem pretty good in my opinion

I’ve never heard of that boat but very impressed with the room stability and width of it like it heaps 👍🏼

Congrats it's been a while since I've been on mine

I have one of them an love it you can jump up and down standing on the side an it won’t tip over

Bass Brothers dmv has some good videos on them boats

Yes sir keeep it up bro

Great looking boat and great looking cane corso! I have same boat and same dog haha

I just recently bought a Pond Prowler from Bass Pro.. basically same thing. Hell of a deal you got there!

Awesome 👍

Great video!

Gratz bro^

I got a sun dolphin 10’. You’re gonna love having it. Me and my wife have a blast on mine

9:40 when he has his hand by the camera reeling in what is int the water you can see something big

Baby Boi !! I'm right behind you !!!

They are decent boats until you get water inside the pontoons. Definitely recommend getting at least a 12ft aluminum boat.

Great presentation bro!!

Thank You

Nice boat!!❤️

🔥🔥🔥🔥

Sup Larry. Great little boat. You will figure everything out. Sure you will get help in comments👍

Hey Larry My brother has one of those boats and your going to have a blast great stability Larry you can stand on the edge of that boat and it won't flip over I think he bought it from bass pro shops. But have a great time on it God bless you and your family your pal fisherman Mike.

What is the black box that holds all your tackle called?

Got one of those myself great boat and easy to mod to make it what u need

Nice addition to the arsenal. Just by a trolling motor with a wireless remote control. 🚤

You eating good my boy

I enjoyed your video. I'm curious which kayak you have.

battery holder is the back of the boat

Nice catch dude!! I've been looking at buying your model of boat and also the Bass Pro Pond Prowler. I hate it when you think you have a nice one hooked and then it gets away!! Wishing you a big bass catch of the day!!!

Love my pelican just becarful putting your rods on the side cause they will fall out had to go swimming for one of mine

Been saving to buy me on of these. Hows it holding up for you and have you made any more changes?

How heavy is it lifting that into the bed of the truck? Do you have wheels to move it around?

Just curious I was wanting to buy something like this what year is this one I'm worried to buy an older model how's the condition of this one is there any soft spots

Live scope petition

Get a 40 thrust transom mount trolling motor

Which is more stable this boat or solo in the 12 foot jon boat??

Which do you use more? The kayak or this boat?

Needs live scope this is an epic set up

Pimp out the pelican with used marketplace stuff

I have a 8 footer and love it. Are you still enjoying yours ?

Hello .... do you know if you can put a live scope on the boat?

Reverse polarity or your battery. Red to negative black to positive and it will be reversed

Yea you need to get a 14 foot jon boat

Live scope

You had it backwards fyi

Bro just turn the seats around

Ephesians 5:4 in the Bible: nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving

John 3:3 in the Bible: Jesus replied, very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born again

Look up cattail bow mount trolling motor plate for the bass raider
