Waaaaay too much crap added on here! The point of this hull is to be able to cast freely on a simple open deck. How do you even bring a fish onboard with all that in the way?
One of the most well thought out skiff...great handy work and lots of great ideas. You didn't mention the stakeout pole at the end, but I noticed it. Thanks!!
Dam man you are decked out. The trolling motor is a good idea I might do that to my solo. You should post this on the official solo owners group on Facebook.
Great job! I'm planning adding the same Haswing motor to my Solo. What's the size of your starboard (1/2"x12) or (1/4"x12) and how many screws and where did you drill through the skiff? I see the Haswing boat bracket has 8 holes, did you use all 8 or just 6, 4? Why did you bring the Haswing so far out the bow, to weight compensate? Your batteries for the Haswing are also on the front? I was thinking on placing them under the seat (lithium though).
just curious - have you turned the boat over to see if It can be righted with all the topside addons ? I noticed you riveted the PVC stand..... If it gets submerged might not stay watertight ? ....... I know the solo skiff will roll over under the right conditions ....... saw a video of a guy who put a single outrigger on one (after he "slow rolled" it)................. ;-p
Thanks again for your video! I’m pretty close to buying one of these but would like to be able to fish two people occasionally. Would you mind commenting about how well the boat does or does not perform with two people? I really appreciate it, thanks again!
well its definitely better solo. my wife only weighs 110# and it works but i also have the trolling motor on the tip of the bow you will get more wet. i bought a cheap kayak for those who want to come with me and i just tie it to the side like a side car.
2 persons is no recommended for stability issues. Tested it out with a buddy and we both weighed 170 with small gear. Boat was 3" out of water under power.
This is what is commonly referred to as testing the maximum limits of a design.
Dadgum!!! That’s a lot of stuff!!! All you need now is a chrome dipstick and a high speed fan belt and you’re set!!

Id have to totally agree i never understood how folks fish with so much crap..
@@BloodSweatnBass may as well build a tuna tower !!
the boat is very good, the technique is senior, the boat accessories are the most creative, I like it
I’ve been researching small boats and this video of yours sealed the deal...I’m getting a Solo Skiff!
Great job on the build out...very impressive!
thanks its a great little craft to get you out there and fish
Hands down the best Solo skiff and micro skiff there is on line great job sir God bless...
Love the duct knife up front and center.

Michael ragoobir thanks. Will post another more in depth post with more upgrades next week. Been in Europe the past month on a motorcycle trip
That looks nice, unless you weigh under 150lbs looks like you're pushing the limits lol. Ever consider kayak stabilizers?
I like the ideas. Good stuff, but you might be over loading the boat. Be careful out there. And keep catching
Phase 1? More like phase 95765278743. Lol
Great job!

Great job! Subscribed.
Any leaking from the drilling into the hull?
Nice work!
