Taking my Lund 1650 Rebel XL on a trip in the Chesapeake Bay. Didn't see many videos of smaller boats on the Chesapeake Bay (although there's another Lund guy!) so I decided to make one of my own.
Launched at Sandy Point State Park. First to Sandy Point lighthouse, then across the Bay north of Kent Island to the Kent Narrows. Stopped at Fisherman's Crab Deck for lunch. Continued going south on the east side of Kent Island through Eastern Bay. Saw a lighthouse on the south side, then crossed the Bay heading north and saw another lighthouse. Then Annapolis and under the Bay Bridge.
Note: First time gopro users and first time doing video editing in 10-20 years... Next video will have much better quality... ;)

I have a 179 polar Kraft I do mostly inshore salt . If you fill up your front livewell it definitely helps with the bow smashing . Adding weight to the front will help you not chip a tooth 🦷 😂👍

WTF was that video all about ?

Any problems with corrosion, rust or any other things associated with being in salt water? Been a little nervous about that.

Hey I got my Rebel now and after I get off the water I notice a little bit of water builds up in the portside rod locker. Have you experienced the same?

It's a Lund. Minnesotans know how to build boats.

@SOMDfishing

I’m thinking about buying the same boat and live in the area(Southern Maryland). I figured I would mostly stay in the rivers but go out in the bay when it’s calm. Are you still happy with your purchase of this boat???

Good video. I have a 1650 Rebel XS Sport (similar to yours) with a 90hp. It is a great boat for inland Ontario waters including the East side of Georgian Bay (Moon River, Parry Sound area, etc.). It does get harsh on windy days on the big lakes like Couchiching and the Kawarthas... A flat Lake Ontario was so much fun (72 km/h, empty with two guys), but a windy Lake Erie forced me back. The boat has its +/-. It gets to tight smaller spots and fits in my typical residential garage.

Hey I myself just purchased a 1650 rebel XL SS and got a 75hp on it. What max speed do you get on the 90hp? Seems like handles the chop pretty well. gets me pumped! Nice video

I just got a 14.5 ft vhaul aluminum boat and I was wondering about taking it out on the northern part of the bay. I’ve had in some really rough chop in the Susquehanna river but I’m not sure how it would do in the bay.
