Get a few cushions down in the cuddy and it'll be the perfect thing for some nights on the river, carp and pike fishing 😉, it's the kind of thing I'm looking at.

That smile is what it's all about keep up the good work

Well done Kev the boats looking good mate bigger fish to come 👍👍👍

Look out Graeme, Kev's after your crown 👑🛥️ Stay Safe Kev 🎣🐟

Well done Kev, I bet that felt good ! Dave and laura

Great video fella. Looking forward to more . Your right its a steep learning curve you are on and every day is a school day. The only advice I could give is to watch as many good you tube vid's of small boat owners and cherry pick the info from each of them that's applicable you, your boat and your fishing. I'm sure ya on it though.

Spot on bud, great video and nice to catch on the first outing, boat looks great 👍

Great to see you out in the boat, doesn't hang about does it , put some wings on it & it'll fly! At least you christened it with a fish, hopefully the steering isn't anything major..... Let the adventures begin 🎣

good to see you out mate x

You have a great attitude towards fishing and the challenges it throws at you, fair play mate. Hope you have a good year, I'll be watching 👍🏻

Love that mate always brilliant to see someone local smashing life keep up the good work mate 👍

Nice mate boats looking good 👍

Was looking forward to this video and it didn't disappoint to many exsperts on here nice to see a novice giving it ago gives me more confidence to do it myself be nice to see the launch next time

She looks amazing mate👍 hope the loss of the steering isn’t to bad 🎣

Glad you enjoyed the maiden voyage on vigilant, she looks pretty rapid too , great little vid as usual . Be lucky

Funny as always!. She ripps though mate roll on the better weather.

Congrats on the new vessel!🤙

You need a small gas cooker for knocking up some grub😁

Congrats on christening your new boat,... thanks for the video..., and try putting gunson rear spring assister's they might help or upgrade the rear springs, not expensive and have really helped us in the past, well done tight line's 🎣🐟🐟👍👍 look forwards to the next one

Glad to see u got the vigilant out mate hope u had a great day out on it and hope u have many more on board the vigilant. Tight lines for the future mate 👌

Well done Kev, here is when the obsession hits a new level , must get this, need another that, boat ownership takes madness to a a higher level 🤣 👍

Well done on getting the boat out already, I got a similar size boat with a 50 just over a year ago we didn't get out as much as I liked last year so hoping we have better chances this year, I want to try Red Sands and Shivering Sands forts a go when the weather picks up it would be good to see you out there 👍

Great stuff....it seems to get along ok. Just be careful out there..first week I had my boat had a few disasters but came back alive which is massive....biggest threat is wind and I don't mean from my arse lol...take care looking forward to the next vid...

Vigilant is a lovely looking boat kev

Nice One Kev!! The boats is looking good mate ! Lovin the vids ,keep up the good work :)

nice one mate

I had a nice bass this afternoon too from Halling/Snodland.

First one out the way well done pal

I saw you coming past the Great Danes at Hollingbourne today it gave me a bit of a start as your boat and trailer is near identical to mine. Same cabin, same covers, same rod holders, similar trailer. I was relieved to see the black engine as mine is a grey Mariner 60

Things can only get better mate, onwards and upwards as they say.

The steering will be one of the many nautical night mares you will have when boating . I have had plenty in my time. Nice to see you get out on the boat ,have you sorted the anchor for Dan buoying the anchor out.

Like it chap what happened to the car? No better feeling than being on the water !!!!

I was hoping a fish hunter would make a appearance so he was there in the form of his spirit animal 😂

👍👍👍👍👍

Has the fishhunter lost weight lol

shouldnt wear waders on a boat mate if you fell in youd sink like a rock

Not many boats out. That’s right we’re in lockdown.
