Thanks for putting this video together man. Well put together and very informative. This video is one of the deciding factors for me buying this boat this winter. Keep up the great content and I look forward to watching more of your adventures! Tight Lines!

Love your boat videos. I just got a bass raider a month ago. I like seeing some things you do to give me ideas to do to mine.

Great video and informative! I’ve been thinking of getting one of these and your video gave me some ideas for my build. Thanks!

I've been looking at that boat so your video was very helpful. I look forward to seeing more from you.

Ive been watching several reviews on this boat. Yours is by far the best eval Ive seen. Thanks

Thank for taking the time to put this together brother. I just got my pelican bass boat and completed the registration for it today. I can wait to get it on the water, this is my first boat and ready to make it something of my own. Thanks for showing the mods you did I can't wait to start working on mine.

I just bought the same boat yesterday and you answered a lot of my questions. Awesome video

Thank you for the information. I just bought this boat today and didn’t really have any idea on how to set it up. Now I’m ready to get started, Thank you!

Thank you for the excellent independent review! We've got seven months of winter up here in Alberta, Canada and I'm anxious to get on the water this summer. Likely going to pick up the Bass Raider from Amazon today largely from your review! Cheers.

Thank you for the over view of this fantastic boat u have I got really interested in it cuz it’s a pretty solid price for it and as well I love the pontoon boat style for the incredible stability and great for freshwater and/or saltwater fishing (inshore)

This is exactly what I am talking my wife into right now. This video helped me haha. Thank you. It looks awesome.

Excellent review! I’ve been agonizing over buying one and this made my mind up for me. I’m going to bass pro shop tomorrow morning and pick one up. Just retired and can’t wait to get out on the lake with my grandson. Thanks a million! Good job

U r right .this is a great little boat. It fits the back of my pickup truck perfectly an I enjoy it each time I take it out. Thanks ready for the next video

Ty for the awesome review you sold me on this boat. I did like you said I researched the heck out of fishing Kayaks and even small(12') jon boats..what it came down to was I wanted to be able to stand. and then sit at my convenience with a stable platform. Will be my retirement fishing boat! Ty so much! Great video

Thanks for the video man, I just got a 10E. I’m doing quite a few mods to it. Cool to get a different perspective.

Great review man. Thanks for helping us make a decision for our pond!

Man, I'm a kayaker thru and thru but you got my attention! Also looking at the Catch Power. Keep up the great work.

Great video and editing! Subscribed.💪

good job! very detailed, appreciate your time ! !

Mods are looking good! Your giving me some good ideas! I guess the major part of moding for me will be trying to keep the weight as low as possible and still maximizing efficiency. Im a “big boy” (275 lbs) so i will have to be selective on who will get to fish with me or not! I cant wait to try some of these mods out! Good job on your videos!

Your review was so well done. You hit all the data details as well as all the finer points. BRAVO JOB! This is the boat I'm currently looking to buy . Because of Covid19 they are even harder to find as Canada is not shipping as often to the USA. BTW, here's a tip if you like to camp and fish:. You can put a free standing backpacking tent or trekker pole tent inside the boat by taking out the seats. Makes for a nice overnight on the water at the shoreline or lift it out to the shore and it keeps you off the ground away from ground critters and damp banks. My husband and I plan to do this and pack an extra tarp for any downpour (again a trekker pole tarp). 🎣❤️🏕️. 👍👏 Thanks for a super 😎 review!

My first boat was very similar, I miss that bass machine! Great little vessels!

Those seats are looking plush!! Nice boat bro!!

Loved your review bro thanks so much! You have a new subscriber!

Man, I love your garage!

I love min can't wait to use it more. Great stuff sir .

Nicely done. I really like the boat and set up.

Getting ready to order mine Monday morning. This will be perfect for me. Lots of deep creeks that are wide and isn't many places to fish from the bank. We always took my friends canoe on it and slammed the fish. His just wasn't that stable. This will be great I'm sure. I'll add some nice mods and hopefully have a good season. Good luck to you and everyone else on here.👍👊

Great review!!! I recently noticed that one of my neighbors has this exact boat so I just started looking in to getting one for myself. I currently have a canoe that I've been using for the past 30 years but I'm getting older and less agile so I've looking for something that I feel more comfortable and stable in and won't break the bank. I live on the water so something like this would be perfect for me.

Great video Bro. I'm on a budget as well. Thanks!

Great video bud. Love your setup.

I got a bass raider ,i've been having mine for18 to 20 yrs. Its made of soft plastic and doesnt have any electrical hookups or anything old school, and i still use it every weekend and most afternoons..these little boats are awsome!!

You can take an old trolling motor and make you a tiller to keep the back end from spinning around all the time, it will track str8 that way. You can add a momentary trolling motor foot switch for not much money, which will save the tiller handle switch on your trolling motor from going out from constant on and off, plus the convenience of just hitting the switch with your foot to ease up a little bit, often times without even having to touch the trolling motor. In all the years I used a momentary switch I never had to replace it. I agree with others that putting a plug on the trolling motor and having the battery on opposite end of the boat is the way to go for some weight distribution. Just some thoughts from someone who fished out of a plastic boat for years. I really enjoyed watching a few of your videos and have you in my favorites and am subscribed now and really appreciate you making these videos. You do a great job!

I’ve been trying to decide between this boat a kayak and the predator but after this video I believe I’ll be getting this boat

Hey brother, nice video. You gave me some great ideas for mine. Just built a rod holder out of pvc pipe, upgrading my seats next. Hopefully it will look as great as yours or close to it.

Thank you for this video review. Very helpful.

You have a really nice setup there. I have a kayak and like using it. But being 50 years young, it isn't the best option with the lifting and trying to stand from a very low seated position. I went to a 10 foot job similar to yours and like you said, I love the ability to stand without worry of tipping over. I fish the DMV as well and maybe I will run into you guys on the water one day . Tight lines fellas.

Great review! Putting a mat at the bottom makes sense. The drain plugs are there to drain condensation from within the hull. Thank you very much for mentioning that it's made in Canada. The price is $1400 in 2023. Still a good deal.

Real easy to put a drain in. I got the demo at academy for 400.00. Standing it up does a little superficial damage that gives you bargaining power. Definitely put a small outboard on it. I really liked mine, with exception to how easy it gets blown around. Enjoyed the video 👍🏼

Thank you bro I'm really considering this boat

Thank you for the nice overview.

Thanks for the vid sir ! Been researching kayaks a lot so I can get off the bank and the ones I want are over two grand. That’s crazy to me, and I had a job boat but we moved and I had no where to store it so I sold it. (15 footer) If I went any smaller with the Jon boat it would be less stable than the raider. So I am going to get one!

Great Review!!!! I’m looking to get the Pelican so your review was very helpful. New subscriber! Quick question, what kind of trailer do you use for your boat?

I feel like I could easily car top this, I like your review

Brother I'm going to pick up the same kind of boat Saturday at Bass pro. Thank you for your in depth review also like a lot of your modifications which would help me know how to proceed forward with my own. Thanks

Awsome review !

Good video, very helpful!

Great video, been looking heavy at the Bass Raider. Yea it does suck walking to shore from the middle of the lake..paddle a mus have. lol

Wassup from the DMV! Looking to get one of these. Thanks!

Great review

Nice video can tell you love what your doing. Two suggestions: Add a bilge pump, andput a swimming noodle on the handle of your fishing rods, about 4 inches will do it, near the handles, adjust accordingly.

Dude...your garage is clean!

Looking to buy one for my pond. Thanks for the information.

Thank you great review

Yes i love my Raider done a lot of mods on it . Never lost a rod but that is a concern i took some Kayak Pad eyes and put on mini with mini stretch cords

enjoyed the tour of yoir boat

Ayee bud awesome review I went out an bought 1 soon as I watched. I’m extremely pleased with the stability. Could you tell me how long the shaft is in your trolling motor?

I just bought one, im looking for a trailer now, any tips on a trailer like yours? Yours is perfect honestly. Any help would be appreciated, great video.

cant seem to find these to purchase new...any leads? thanks! great review love it!

Good job. Thanks

Im in the market for this boat but amazon wants it for 1,500 most likely bc of the virus but still I will wait until that goes down. Overall good review I will most likely buy it :)

I have a bass buggy similar too this one that I want to wire electrically. I mentioned it on your jon boat to bass boat build. Trying to figure out how to wire similarly to how you wired your jon boat. It comes wired for a trolling motor, but I want to wire it for a fish finder and navigation lights for the bow and stern. Can't wait to see how you modify yours. I want to do the same. Please, please, please do a modification wire and deck build. I need some insight/ suggestions.I love your videos. Thanks in advance

Nice boat and garage

Great Idea about the foam for rods. Im in MD as well. Gaithersburg! Where is your favorite spot to fish.

Nice video/ Boat!!!

I got the Sun Dolphin variant and it is indeed so much fun. I launch it at seneca off my Tacoma in like 9 seconds and i'm outta the way in the same places the bigger boats are at before them.

Great video thank you for the detailed explanation on the features! Looking for a small simple fishing boat for me and my buddy. Smallmouth bass and perch. Pelican recommends a maximum three and a half horsepower motor I think for this boat. Do you think that would be a decent upgrade over a two and a half horsepower, or would a 5 horsepower motor be too heavy? The lake We mainly fish on is large but not very wavy. Cheers

Cool design you ought to try a solar battery charger to try to help you keep your battery charged while you fishing cool little ride though I hope you enjoyed in your future I see you with a bigger bass boat.

Excellent video! Is the 15 lb anchor enough to keep you from blowing around a lot or do I need one heavier?

first off - thank you for all your great videos! I'm looking to get a Bass Raider 10e nxt, and deciding on a trolling motor. The Minn Kota Endura Max 55 seems like a good one to go with. curious what shaft length I should go with between the 36" and 42"?

Well done!

Nice, thanks bro!

Well Done Video, Thank U

Nice job sir

I like your rod holders. Could you please do a video on how you made them?

You provide a lot of knowledge and good tips. Where can you buy this boat?

Great video, I just picked one of these up. I was concerned about rods going overboard, on account of that side rail is small. Does the foam interfere with casting at all?

Hi! We just got one of these! We are about to do the scupper install per your instructions. I’m curious if you would tell me where you got the boat cover? Or rather what tarp or whatever will do the job at the least amount of money of course. Please let me know soon as I need to get a cover asap. Thanks so much for your video! I can’t wait to watch the rest of your mod vids.

Great video and ideas. You don’t use a battery box for your battery?

Nice setup man! I live right here in Edgewater MD and I just ordered one. Do you mind if I message you about the title and reg process?

Great video! Where did you get the trailer for the boat?

Hi, just purchased a 2007 Pelican 10E yesterday used from a good friend. I've had the Uncle Bucks Pond Prowler 7'6" previous. Loved it. I could go in 6" water. I had the same trolling motor of 55lbs thrust. Anyhow, I'm taking your advice on the floor, that doesn't look very comfortable standing on the ridges and just maybe a tripping hazard. What thickness plywood did you use, and where did you get that durable mat, brand, thickness? What does the wiring harness male plug look like and where do you think I can get one, or just modify? I like the boat oar you have velcroed to the side. What did you use as adhesive to secure to boat? If that oar is glued together, may I suggest getting a solid one, I had one similar, fought off a sand bar, and my oar turned into a plain ole stick with sides falling off. Thanks for the vid, very well done, and you have a new subscriber brother :)

Yo! I'm planning to put this on top of my car. Getting two kayaks will cost more or less than this. This weigh only 145 lb and two kayak close to 120 lb. I gotta get this now.

Great review! DMV stand up. Wiz hoodie 💪🏽. I looking for a boat small enough to handle on my own and large enough to take my kids. I've never owned a boat and barely know anything about them. This is probably stupid question, but, is rowing difficult on a boat this size?

you can go to Harbor Freight or online and get a smallish solar panel battery charger that you can mount above your battery and that will keep you from have to worry about running out of battery power.

How much money will mods cost after the build ? This will be my first boat Im excited

Taxes are coming and I'm checking these out (I'll be looking for used) but now,the 100 amp hr lithium battery from eBay like eco Worthy brand are only $250-350 depending on seller. Much lighter and more power,I can't wait to get this on the little muskingum and middle island creek.... Awesome

The foam floors are smart man

For small lakes or ponds, this mini pontoon is top notch.

great video...im looking for a small boat. What about putting like a 5 horse Mercury motor on back??

Great info, Thanks! I'm looking for a small boat to fish the river. I haven't seen anyone the Bass Raider on moving water. What're your thoughts about the boat on a river?

Silver Spring!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bass brothers. Awesome video. I am looking at getting this specific 10E imported into Dubai, as we have flat ocean. But have heard some negative thoughts about the stability when here are boat waves it wind and swell. What are your thoughts.

I have a boat like this. Different brand tho. I love urs btw. If u reverse the trolling motor handle and put the trolling on the front. Steers like a dream. The rear is sketchy...

I love the boat cover where can I purchase one?

How you doing 3 in the boat? is it cramped? my wife is pretty small, 4'9", and my son is only 7, I'm 5'9", so I think it would work, but also have questions about moving around? Lets say you had 2 people, how hard would it be to change positions if you need to? Like lets say I'm in the back, and need to sit up front? could you shuffle around a bit, without having the boat flop around in the water? I think for me, I'd want to go with a small gas outboard. Would be neat if a small gas outboard could recharge batteries, or there was some sort of hybrid option to use a 2-3hp motor for getting up to 5-6mph and electric trolling motor for like 2-3mph. I'm glad you pointed out that you went over this vs a Kayak. I've been going between getting a Kayak vs a Jonboat, and this seems like a great compromise that will fit my needs.

Hey, good video and I picked up a few tips that I can apply to my Dick's Angler Quest 8

I was thinking of buying one of these I don't have a hitch on my Jeep and thought about strapping it to The top on the luggage rack. I'm just wondering if these are light enough where you can do that I can lift some weight so maybe I'm giving it too much credit on its weight. I'm wondering if it's a better idea to just keep the battery in the car with me if I'm going to roof mount this or is it better to have it in the boat to help weigh it down.

Have you tried using a portable jumper to temporarily power the trolling motor. I have no idea how well it would work but it seems a small and light option for getting out of the water.
