After a couple months now, man, i freaking love it. I do wish it had electronic trim tabs for the big ship channels but it’s been a dream shallow water fishing platform for my needs. Sips gas and once you get the trim and Jack plate dialed in and know how it likes it, it’s the perfect boat for out here in the shallows and just enough to go fish the jetties or go to the reefs on a smooth day. I just put an order in for a matching x3 32’ w dual 350’s for my family and deep sea platform.
Also, if you ever are in the aransas pass rock port Corpus or port a area, and want to get footage of the boats running. That could be fun/cool. Snakeup19@gmail.com
Just wondering have you made any videos on the shallow sport in the water running skinny or fishing I am in the market and plan on purchasing one just wanted to see some videos and here you advice on them we fish a lot down south areas.
I have not had an opportunity to get any footage running but i think SS took my advice and they have started posting more videos of their new boats running skinny. Check out their instagram page. I freaking love this boat for the Texas gulf. It’s perfect. I highly recommend electric trim tabs if you can. My only regret on my build. I love my configuration and would build the exact boat again. 24’ might be better if you’re fishing 4 people, but i love my 21 bc i usually fish solo or with one of my kids. I’ve had no issues so far except one bad battery. The quality is there. I’m sure i could resell now for close to what i paid. Good luck with your purchase! You shouldn’t have any reservations on pulling the trigger. 🙌🙌
Thanks for the information Brother I think I am going with the 24’ I love the room and thanks for the tip on the trim tabs I am also going with the electric jack plate
@@juanmendiola4048 oh yea!!! I think that’s a smart move, the draft and holeshot numbers are the same. You probably get more power too. I just love the 21 for ease of operation and it absolutely sips gas. If you’re ever in the aransas pass, rock port, port a area, I’ll be there!!! Hardest part is waiting for the build.
now that you've had this SS 21 Sport for a while, what has your general experience with it been and, specifically, how does it handle solid chop on the river or bay?
On a choppy day, you’re not going to want to cover a buncha miles but to get to your near by spots it’s handled the chop as you’d expect, pretty ok. Probably depends on your tolerance but def not made to eat it up. It’s never felt unstable or unsafe, just rough. Been a great boat, bullet proof durability and ease of ownership/maintenance. Thanks for watching.
Not sure what the stand through is, but i have no complaints other than i shoulda gotta electronic trim tabs. For my area, this boat is perfect. I go out solo most the time. What is the stand through?
So were you able to do a review yet? I never knew anything about SS boats they dont seem to be that abundant in Florida bit since I have seen a few on YT I am very interested...This will be my 1st boat coming from a big kayak fishing rig I still want the option of going skinny and I know it still wont be kayak skinny but I predominantly fish back waters, intercoastal and jetties. I think im more interested in the 18 Sport but theres not too much difference in the 21 right?
No full review video unfortunately but it’s been awesome. Depending on your equipment it runs just as shallow as a yak, even more shallow if you’re in a peddle drive yak. You wouldn’t be disappointed. Gets in real skinny and tight. These boats are hard to beat and the Suzuki engine has been bulletproof.
@@snakegs4203 Yep its a pedal drive yak Titan 13.5...Damn is that so...Now I am even more interested...Its just time to graduate I love the yak life but I'm ready for another chapter...Thanks!
@@prynceal6762you won’t regret it. Opens up so many more possibilities and opportunities with the ground you’ll cover. Probably easier to launch in a lot of cases. Easy 1 man operation. Plus you can bring a yak on board if you wanted to. I’ve done it w my inflatable Bote yak. Or wade fishing! Great boats.
Depends on where I’m headed but it runs great at all speeds. Best cruise speed around 4000 rpm is about 30mph Jumps on plane hardly going 15mph and will stay level at low speeds. It’s been a great boat so far. Really perfect for my use, typically go by my self or w a buddy. 3+ i start wishing i was in an x3 but 90% of the time I’m solo w a dog.
Hey thanks for the video...their marketing does suck...also the website should be updated. I got turned on to these buy a fishing buddy...got a chance to P/U a new one where the guy who was going to buy it couldn't follow thru...going on Tuesday..wish me luck
@@bigkahuna7955 hmmm, I’m used to electric trim tabs and the trim tabs that come with them are manual and if you get it wrong it’ll cause some porpoising. Def don’t charge your batteries with the battery switches on, drained mine):. A 12” Garmin would be nice over the 9”. Adding the 2 additional speakers would be nice but not necessary. I really am trying to think and can’t think of much. The trailer bumper is a lil tricky when loading at the launch of the ramp has any drastic decline, when loading the bumper can be higher that the bow so gotta be careful of that.
I customer ordered mine as well. No trim tabs. I got the impression I didn’t need them for a 21 footer. Wasn’t sure if they were upselling me something I didn’t need. Sounds like I’m going to need them based on your reply.
It’s not necessary I’d say but having them would be handy. Mine are adjustable but fixed. I have tabs just can’t do much about adjusting them while underway and if they are impacting the boat, you kinda have to work around the trim tabs. Not difficult and just my nit pick on the boat.
