I am thinking about purchasing a small 1-2 man boat to fish some smaller private waters and smaller lakes and I found this online.
This is one Bad A** Rig!!

That's a pretty neat looking little rig. Perfect for smaller waters.

You mean like they are trying to make Ray Hubbard?
That will stir things up..

Is it possible to get one with a. 36v TM?

Re: Best Small Bass Boat Ever - 09/06/14 02:31 AM
I am guessing between $4-8k depending on what you add to them. I can't find any pricing.

Those are sweet!! Would be fun in the Spring in the back of creeks/coves. Wouldn't want to be in it with Spring winds though. Very neat!
Here is one for sale. But it's in VA. $1500

I wonder what you could do with a hydro tech phase III on a 25hp yammie?

My uncle has a custom hull aluminum 13ft with a 60 tiller handle. I can't imagine this thing with a 25!!

No way bro, your Pond King is still awesome! Your is like a full size floating front deck for bass fishing.

I cant think of any reason why you wouldn't save your money, buy a descent mod. V aluminum 14-16' with a descent tiller outboard and put all of your money in trolling motor and graphs.

I've already got a Basscat
This would be a fun toy, IMO
This is the kewlest thing Ive seen since the guy that made mods to his jetski for bass fishing! (youtube)

It needs an extra set of breaks to stop all that weight pushing you.
It is pretty cool looking though.

Big time +1 on that. Your rig is sweet!

I'm still looking for a price online, my guess is $9500 for basic package and $13,000 for pro package.

No pricing listed. That usually means the price is higher than a giraffe's ears

Looks like a boat for Falcon near the dam with a strong north wind...

Re: Best Small Bass Boat Ever - 09/06/14 07:01 PM
I'd love to see you take on Falcon at it's worst in that thing.

That is the coolest pond hopper I have ever seen. Way better than those roto molded can't remember their name bass hunter maybe.

Would much rather have the mini Stratos--bet they are the same price.

You can buy a used 17-18 foot bass boat for $4k-$8k that will be way more useful, safe and functional than that.
Posted By: Lee in Texas
Re: Best Small Bass Boat Ever - 09/06/14 10:14 PM
It really would be. But, if they keep lowering the lake levels and we continue this dadgum drought....might turn out to be more, much more than a 'toy'. Might be the only way to fish the small water left....God I hope that doesn't happen..

Re: Best Small Bass Boat Ever - 09/06/14 10:21 PM
Its no different than these guys that buy a 15k side by side when they can go buy a used 4x4 for half the price. Just a luxury item

what if someone already has a nice rig and just wants a another toy.
I bet that rig is fun to back down the ramp. Lol

Where do you put rods or tackle in that little boat?
Posted By: 361V
Re: Best Small Bass Boat Ever - 09/07/14 02:55 PM
Very cool looking boat! Nothing wrong with buying something simply because it is cool, long as it works for you. My problem would be you stated: "one OR two man boat". That is a one man man boat only. No option to bring a second person. Kind of limits your options. But you would have one of the coolest one man boats available plus a trailer to haul a few tons if needed. :-)

That was my thought, but I think the boat pretty neat.
Backing a small rig can an issue as they turn quickly. It took me few practice launches with my buster boat and trailer.

Rated at 6hp, it will get you where you want to go just get an early start.

1963 Super Skeeter !!!
Funny, I remember the old original skeeters on Cross Lake back when I was a kid in the 50s. They were something else.
My dad had an old plywood Plants boat (jon boat) with a Johnson Seahorse 7.5 and it was a classic boat, but wasn't as hot at the Skeeter Boats that we saw out on Cross Lake. Some of those things had Merc Super 10s on them and could FLY!
Im going to order one tomorrow. Ill let you know what I think. I'm actually going to use it to pre fish with. I think i can punch the pedal on the truck from ramp to ramp more efficiently than running up and down the lake in the big boat. Just throw the Onix 10 on the mount and go.

Hardly! It'll take a lot better rig than that to beat what you're fishing out of!
Posted By: Lee in Texas
Re: Best Small Bass Boat Ever - 09/09/14 01:51 AM
Your right there! Crankbait's boat is not unique, not fast but man, what a great fishing platform he has made. Ya'll do know he took a stock pontoon and modified it with live well, net holder, extra battery, wired it and added many more invaluable tools, like his Humminbird. I'm waiting for the day when he breaks down and put an engine on it and, well suffice to say he has really made a fine fishing machine out it!

Me and a buddy called the company about these little toys. They start at $6500.00 and up to $10,000.00 depending on options. They are pretty sweet.

Re: Best Small Bass Boat Ever - 09/09/14 02:45 AM
Well, I like it. Tandem trailer (LOL) and all. You seriously considering one? Look forward to your putting a Go Pro on it and seeing some fishing from that rig!
I am thinking about purchasing a small 1-2 man boat to fish some smaller private waters and smaller lakes and I found this online.

Shawn, man you don't know. We are REALLY hurting for water here in Texas....strange as it may sound....something like that may turn out to be the 'new bass rig', well until we have a lot more rain..and, doesn't hurt if you have money for a really neat 'toy'!
