The new fast boat hits the water! Red For Speed! This boat was not meant to appear quite yet but we are still patiently waiting on my dream boat to arrive, so time to get the new micro inflatable into action. Set up and how I apply the vinyl rego numbers is in the vid, one of the most asked questions on about my inflatable boats on the channel. Now let's go on an ocean adventure!

The subtle flex of take your boat over to your boat to get something while you're patiently waiting for your boat to come in

Hahaha!

Yep. I loved it.

Permanent marker and a skilled hand does a great job. The markers used to label livestock tags is the longest lasting but most any permanent marker will work.

@utahjag Год назад

That knob you pull out is the choke. Generally you pull it out for the first start of the day and push it in once the boat is a bit warmed up or starts to sputter, then you push it in and don't need it for further starts that day. Love the new boat for fun. Thanks for the video, looking forward to more!

@justinadams5159 Год назад

Well done ROKKiT, another plan comes together. One thing I’ve learnt about you is if you can’t do it. No one can. Good luck on yr upcoming adventures, I’m sure they’ll be amazing, and extraordinary.

@gothicel Год назад

Gorgeous and speedy little thing. Thanks for keeping us in the loop. Love your vids mate.

@melin1969 Год назад

i know the boat is inflatable etc etc but im still in awe that a boat of that kinda size can fit and be sent in a box that size

@Rocco10104 Год назад

Mate I can’t wait for the bigger boat to arrive so pumped for the new adventures to come!

@boefjeb5425 Год назад

Great to see you back on the water!! Can’t wait to see what the big boat looks like and how it goes! See you next time!

@damienwoodcock4241 Год назад

Hey rod with these motors you can get an extension screwed on and you can sit at the front and work the throttle forward and revers from up there, well worth it solo fishing to keep the nose down 🤟🏽

@rowenjolly9447 Год назад

The gear change on the tiller arm is great I’m a big fan of that design

@fishhunt9874 Год назад

Great new addition even if it is temporary. To get your maximum speed you should go both directions. Do a 180° turn on the second run and then average the two runs 🤙🏼

@bmanferlife Год назад

As always, love the vid Rod. Can't wait to see the next boat! Stay safe out there brother!

@tangoreal9098 Год назад

I have one of these and Love It! Very stable super easy to board from front stows and folds easy. High quality components. Extremely rugged material! I use as a tender for my sailboat, adventure boat for river running swim and dive platform.

@james5553 Год назад

That looks perfect for me. I have been after something like a zapcat for ages. Just need to sell some bits and get my order in ready for next summer. I see they ship to the UK so fingers crossed I get everything sorted. What a weapon !

@repulsivesky1 Год назад

Hey Rod. Love the content. Always look forward to your videos. When is the next video of the sailboat coming out? Looking forward to seeing the progress on the boat, and how are improving as a sailor.

@jdtvshorts Год назад

I’ve used cast vinyl with a heat gun to get letters to stick to inflatable boats. Takes much longer to apply than normal stickers but it doesn’t bludge the surface.

@deadairconversion Год назад

Can't wait to see the new boat, but the 'Pocket Rocket' seems like a reliable in between. Look at you sporting that snazzy red color! Cheers mate! Always love your content, hope the sciatica continues to get better. I know the feeling all too well, it's miserable.

@Rtechmobile Год назад

Pretty sure all the small Merc's below 30HP are Tohatsu's , which is not a bad thing at all . Congrats on the new ride.

@dylanwilliams3807 Год назад

All the japanese ones are afaik but the us made ones with the gears on the tiller are were all made by mercury and are different motors.

@lombasto 3 месяца назад

@@dylanwilliams3807they are still Tohatsu’s, just with Mercury’s controls

@DLB4NATURE Год назад

Nice video! So good to see you wearing the kill switch leash. That saved my life when I was thrown out in the surf. Dealer made me promise to always use it as he had a customer killed when he was thrown out and the boat circled back and ran him down. A friend was thrown out of his sailboat dinghy. Boat circled back and ran him down. He survived but with severe injuries. Folks need to be made more aware of this. Inflatables have a trampoline effect when hitting a wave or wake.

@sarbaazchabahar Год назад

A nice looking boat! Congrats!✌️🍻

@TheDream100 Год назад

I didn't really think about it but it is gonna be nice seeing this pop of colour when you go out to the islands for a bit, opposed to the usual neutral coloured boats you had.

@riverakers Год назад

For some reason YT stopped sending me notifications of new videos.I am glad I checked back to the channel.I had to go back 3 months worth of content to get up to date.

@Grovesie35 Год назад

Hell. Ya. Lovin the boat mate and the red is so attractive that you won't even need a rod, the fish will just come to you on their own!

@darryncwaterillfish-it3034 Год назад

Sure if the trim is adjusted out slightly it will keep the nose down. Had the 2000 model, Grey, that was on a 3m and it was fantastic even with 2 ppl on the boat. Just took a little adjusting to get it to run at the right angle, and got better speed too. Also the petrol usage was brilliant. 25l would last a week of freshwater fishing . Can't wait for your next upload.

@jonmark1347 Год назад

Not boring mate your just getting prepared to send it to some islands can't wait!

Yea!!! Buddy the second hand merc looks sweet! Red looks too good. Im on lake erie and buddy i might need one. Thank you for always sharing the cool stuff

@jimf1964 Год назад

So I believe you can adjust the tilt of the motor to help with the nose rising too much and not coming into plane. There are also "blades" you can attach to the motor. I know you’ll load her up and it’ll probably stop, but if you like to go for a run for an evening, you shouldn’t have to throw a lot of weight on it.

All round great set up , the boat couldn't be simpler to put together, as for that lil Merc,what a score perfect for that hull, ran like a trooper, as for weight in the front time to give mum a break and take the lil man with, he can't learn if he's not with ya.

@@rokkitkit best thing you can do for sure, I'm in my mind sixties now ,my son 30, I don't want for fish at all, when he was 12 I got him a castnet, I don't pay for bait or prawns either.

Hi there, that is a very nice boat engine combo, I also have a 3.3 meters inflatable boat and I use it with a Suzuki 2 strokes 15 hp and it gives me max speed 38.5 K/H , I'm 110 kilos heavy, so yeah same!!! I also have a Nifty boat with a Mercury 2 strokes 5hp , those are nice as well for lakes, rivers or just not to rough ocean, is like kayak with engine, love them!, Anyway I love watching your videos Mate!!! I keep waiting for more videos coming, cheers

@joes8473 Месяц назад

Nice little boat, been thinking about cat raised a little higher and 4mt and longer wheel mounts. Try better weight distribution by moving the gas can and beer cooler under the seat and securing so they do 😂 not slid back and put a cheap plastic storage box with life vests and safety items plus rain gear and hand held VHF.

@jarnosaarinen4583 Год назад

Once I hit something submerged & the whole outboard motor did a summersault & landed in the boat (at full speed) ever since then I keep a shortish chain from the motor to the Transom! Usually they sink if you hit something!!

@blackbirdxx4613 Год назад

Beautiful stuff rod.....

@flysubcompact Год назад

Neat little boat. That 15 should push that light boat to about 25mph. Fast enough. Sorry you are having back issues.

@williamk1452 Год назад

Bro, get a tiller extension and drive standing up! I did and it is better than a jet ski! Don't forget the lanyard!!

No way! I was anchored right where you where in Bum's Bay for a fortnight, then hid off Wavebreak for when that southerly came through. Spent the weekend up at Slipping Sands. Would have only just missed you. I'm on a 31ft sailboat called Duet if you see me around, currently slipping up at Coomera. Would be more than happy to take you for a few lessons.
