Had mine a couple of months, paid £80 off eBay and I also bought a second battery that I’ve not needed to date. Brilliant little boat no whistles and bells but it makes it possible to fish where you couldn’t normally due to overhangs and snags etc. I’ve never blanked since I’ve had it 😊
Works for me! I bought mine from Amazon and only issue I had was, it flipped over when it got windy and the dump bed was up but it worked fine when I rescued it.
My son bought one of these good first boat for money he paid £75 does the job . I bought one of the 500m GPS 3 hopper boats came with 3 spare batteries brilliant kit £130 better than the actor boat that a friend bought he paid £225 no GPS one spare low ah battery. Good review on the product
It Is and does as it says I use mine for them spots can't cast to due over hangs or angles close up island simple drive and yea all round good value for money
@@beardedcarppuller8911 my lad fishes a pool surrounded by overhanging willow trees including the island since he's had this boat he's managed to catch the weary clever resident's without losing tackle or leaving rigs due to break offs
Used in depth yesterday in rain and high winds managed fine one problem I did have nothing to do with boat itself more myself was when it was flipping the line was getting caught around aerial and when tried bring it in the line got jammed in propeller so make sure when putting it out lines facing right direction but dealt with the wind and rain fine
@@beardedcarppuller8911 have to agree- the build quality is better - is it actors are great or other boats are overpriced & others are too cheaply made- bit of all the above the actors is what I'd buy 👍
Unfortunately I had issues where the boat would get stranded so I chucked it but I did put it through his paces and believe if was looked after more would lasted longer
Turn to direction want to go in and can press button on back controller will automatically move but won't stop or depend on weather may not stay on the path you want it to
Iv only used it once to be fair not been out since due to work but this weekend on a Xmas social so will proper put it through its paces but on first look its a bargain at price easy to use and pretty well built for the money
Mine lasted 2 years was great while working! One of the motors sized up couldn't get correct replacement! So have bought another! This time from UK seller! £8 more but still worth it!

Hi, where did you buy the second battery I’m looking for a spare for mine thanks
You can’t argue with that for the money! Would love to see it range tested! I think for £90 you got a bargain mate

If you put your rig in that flipper thing it will cast it back to you😂
Good review, not everyone needs or can afford an all singing all dancing bait boat.

@@michealadderley9081 same mate I have good days and bad days with casting but since using boat not lost a set up thank god haha
@@michealadderley9081 is the one you got of eBay the very100 or the one they seem to only sell with camo look.?
@@andytaylor8802 It is a Very 100 . I have got one in Carbon fibre look.
ty for the video im after a non expensive one as a last minute idea for a trip liked subbed
Iv just brought a different Chinese boat for same price will be doing a review in next couple weeks
@@beardedcarppuller8911 thanks
I would recommended putting some foam where the hopper flips up coz it will break the plastic ovet time
Don't have this no more only brought to review but do have another Chinese 3 hopper boat I just reviewed and may keep so cheers for the advice 👍
@@beardedcarppuller8911 oh thats a shame you don't have it as iam in the market for one if you thinking of selling that one let me now
Just got one works great for dead baits

got the boatman. This one looks fine. Does the job.
Don't think you can beat the boatman on price and quality to be fair

How long did the battery last on it before it need charging again.
Thanks 👍
I've just bought one looks OK now I've seen it working
Great review baz ! :)
Hello mate do you have the link for this ?
How long work battery?
Can ya get a spare battery for this?
Believe so bud
How was the range, can it go for 400m away?
I believe so I only used to get under trees and that
We're did you get it from for that price
That was from ebay at the time I believe
So what happened to part 2?
Unfortunately I had issues where the boat would get stranded so I chucked it but I did put it through his paces and believe if was looked after more would lasted longer
Does it automatically come back?
Turn to direction want to go in and can press button on back controller will automatically move but won't stop or depend on weather may not stay on the path you want it to

@@paulmichelleontourfishing2106 I wouldn't bother! Had mine few months now but 1 of the motors is making a terrible noise although it's still working!

There is nothing wrong with this boat, does what it should do. Q: What boat did you fish 20 years ago??
I was a pole angler back then only been carp fishing for about 4 years now but I guess same as I use now a good old catapult to get my bait out
