Ive contacted my local Lowe boat store here in Marne Michigan. Going to be ordering this boat same color. Love this boat. Great choice im super excited to get it 😎😎😎😎
Went down to the local dealer and long behold they have the identical boat you have just 2 has a 90 horse Mercury on it I ended up purchasing it have them for Humminbird Helix 9 fish finders on the front and back and and I pilot Minn Kota trolling motor already got it in the water once absolutely love it
Thank you for the review. I am currently looking at boats and this model was on my research list. Was debating whether to get the extra seats conversion bench. I thought it might be nice to open lower floor space for trolling with downriggers and watching rods from those back seats. Thanks again.
I think we all are after this winter! I will take my time with the boat, lots to do and the Old Town kayak is calling my name first. I missed spring time on my honey hole last year due to the rona
Beautiful boat ... I can’t wait to see all the reviews you’ll be doing on both googan and 6 sense products .. also have you ever fished with the the lews Mach pro ?
I have the Lew's Pro-Ti, Custom Pro, Pro SP, Custom Black, Crush and Mach II. I believe the Mach Pro is a BassPro only version of the Crush reel, just a different color maybe.
@@FishinwithGRAMPS if it is a Mach crush how do you like it ? And I would like get the googan muscle rod and pair it up with lews but they are sold out already except for dicks and I’m scared they will break it during shipping
I couldn't tell you how fast it goes, never really paid attention to it. I'll probably sell it in the spring as I spend all of my time in a kayak. Good boat though.
That's not ski pole pilon. The ski pole pilon goes through the conversion seat and sits beside the casting deck seat hole. just an FYI sweet boat. I have a blk/red walk through on order. grats.
spends most of it's time sitting in the yard since I fish out of my kayaks. Obsoletely love it, but with my back and knee injuries, kayak fishing is just easier. I need to probably sell it in the spring.
When did Lowe add the ledge for the hinge side of the jump seat assembly to rest on? I have an 2016 165FM and there is no support for that side when the seats are folded away. The side is held up only by the hinges, which are attached to the rear deck with small self tapping screws. The hinge screws are just screwed into the thin aluminum decking. They are coming loose and the hinge is tilting. Anyone else have this problem?
I will use my kayak FAR more than I use my boat. My favorite little lake in the world is too shallow to launch a boat in unless it's flooded, and I still won't ever try to put a boat in there again. Boat will be for taking out family, friends and my puppy dog.
That's one sweet lookin boat! I really like the layout and rear deck seat option. Lookin forward to watching your maiden voyage!
looking forward to some WARMER WEATHER for sure!!
Congrats on the new boat. Looks awesome. Love the direction of the channel.
Thanks! Gotta do what I know!
Man that one cool boat 👍🏼 cant wait for the warm weather 🌡️ so we can all see you enjoy it with the family and friends 🙂.

That is awesome, I'm finally getting my motor broken in. Ready for LOTS of spring fishing!

Nice looking boat Gramps!!!Hopefully this rain we’re getting warms the water up fast 😂😂😂
I'm in no hurry, I have a bunch of stuff to do to prep the boat, but the kayak is ready to roll!
I understand that maybe I’m just a bit antsy 😂

Very nice!
I hope when you start fishing out of your boat you could go over how to use fish finders some. That's probably the one thing I dont know much about.
Excellent idea!
Hey what’s up graps I herd the troll miter meucry was good.
this trolling motor is okay, but I prefer the pull cord ones

Thinking of getting one of these as a musky rig for Saint Clair
Awesome! Looking forward to my maiden voyage here soon!
@@FishinwithGRAMPS yup, I'm a musky guy and need most of what this boat has. Might do some bass tournaments though.
Looks fun.
Do they have a sun top option for it?
Don't know, you probably have to hit their website for that info
congrats hope ur rippin it
I should be, but I keep fishing kayak tournaments, lol!
@@FishinwithGRAMPS I was on a big keyak today caught 12 , keyaks are so easy to get in and out of places .
My fav way to fish for sure
I'm looking buying the exact same boat. How do you like it since you've had it for 2 years? What's its top speed with the 60hp?
I couldn't tell you how fast it goes, never really paid attention to it. I'll probably sell it in the spring as I spend all of my time in a kayak. Good boat though.
Cool video. The way you talk reminds me of snoop Dogg! 😅
heh, we are about the same age

You must be looking at the 2020 model on the website, go to 12:45, there is no hole that i see in the deck except the seat
How long is the boat on the trailer? Can it fit in a 20’ deep garage?
That might be snug, but should with the motor trimmed all the way down.. Mine is 24 ft deep.
Yo, it’s been 3 years, how’s the boat?

Couldn't tell you, my last one was 20 yrs old
Is there enough room for a second 12v battery for 24v trolling motor? Thanks
I think you could fit two in there, but if I went that way I'd probably go lithium to save space and have more juice.
Will you still be using your kayak a lot?
I will use my kayak FAR more than I use my boat. My favorite little lake in the world is too shallow to launch a boat in unless it's flooded, and I still won't ever try to put a boat in there again. Boat will be for taking out family, friends and my puppy dog.
Is the 60hp enough?
is for me, I spend 95% of the time on the trolling motor or anchored
I have a 2002 and 60 is plenty to get you around and have some fun. A 90 would be perfect but 60 is plenty
She a beaut clark
Hehe, best comment evar!
