Glad this appeared in my feed, albeit 8 weeks after his passing on May 18, 2024 kayaking a river in Switzerland. Watching his YT channel, Senders, you get a sense of his great personality, commitment to the sport and community and all of the great friends he’s made along the way. A great loss to everyone who knew him in life and through his channel.
Amazingly good looking but he build quality is questionable, window leaks, broken gates, leaking inspection hatch and now... all weather roof that doesn't like the rain! ru-vid.com9jRY9uxt-LU?si=Y3b3dpr8s-14Go6e Test throughly before you part with your money or bring an umbrella.😮
I never thought about power boats before, it does seem so convenient for going out and short trips. Are such boats good for touring any kind of distance?
I'm reaching out to you as I've been following your RU-vid channel and I'm impressed with your content. Your video quality is much better.But I found some issues with your channel. That's why your channel is not growing. Do you want to grow your channel or want to know channel issues?
I can't get down tomorrow but will be there on Saturday...are you going to post the Ambassador interviews on youtube? Gutted I'm going to miss Harry Dwyer's interview. See you Saturday....really looking forward to it.
White shark 280 looks great and having John onboard always gives a good objective view. Oh and his fishing knowledge is second to none. Would love a boat like that! Super video, thx.
Very American looking boat I have a centre console in Coromandel New Zealand, I can't imagine your weather would suit a boat of that design. You definitely need to use a sea anchor though, I use a minkota
Really not too bad at 60L per hour cruising. People assume the big V8 is thirsty, but in tests with twin 200 motors it was actually using less fuel with almost identical performance.
We looked at a White Shark 205 but we ended up buying a Robalo. We do water sports as well as fishing so that was the main reason we wanted a centre console boat with a descent motor on the back. If we only fished a cabin style of boat would probably have been chosen.
It will be seriously cool in the uk, seriously wet too. Not really a boat for the uk weather. Have fished from similar in hotter climates, with Marlin to 300 & Shark to 200, Tuna to 140 to stand-up fishing wearing a harness. The boat needs a longer bimini top with sides for uk waters.
Good constructive comment. On a fine day in the summer it would be perfect. Though for the other 360 days of the year more shelter could be a benefit. 👍🏻
Sorry but I definitely don't like that boat, I suppose that it's a case of horses for courses though. There's no weather protection and the gunnels are far too low if you caught a decent fish you could easily go overboard especially with those seats in front of them. She's purely a glamorous pleasure boat, perfect for sunbathing and getting to places fast but nothing else. I know that you were trying to sell the boat but I can't see anyone buying one as a fishing boat. However for what She's built for it's no doubt a perfect boat.
Remove some of the seating and you'll have a type of angling or more precisely a sportfishing boat similar to what you'll find all over the world. And I'm talking about boats used for big game fishing. So think marlin, sailfish, tuna, tarpon etc. Be fine for sharking in Ireland or the UK. And if you have the licence, bluefin tuna. Ideal for tackling albacore further offshore as well.
@jimdooley1611 This boat may well be OK for the Caribbean etc. but i certainly wouldn't like to be out in her on a bleak wet winter's day. I'd definitely want a boat with a cabin shelter. Why buy a boat with those posh seats then take them out?
