Beautiful boat but most people couldn't afford the gas to run it let alone buy it.I'd like to see more affordable options for west coast fishing.Last time we went out from Alberni to a few miles off Cape Beal it was a 300.00 bill and we got gas for 1.70 at China Creek! And that's with a single 150 horse. Love your videos,kudos to the camera guy.
@@brianwalker5843 Thanks for the feedback and thanks for watching! Gas prices make everyone grit their teeth for sure. We try and think of it as fun per gallon but it's a burden on everyone. Thanks for the support and good luck this season!
Just discovering the Channel Brenden. Is this a personal boat or do you run a fishing charter now? Great boat, back in the market for a boat again myself. Had a cabin cruiser and a sailboat loved them both but thinking next boat will be a dedicated fishing vessel that can accomplish some cruising and weekend trips.
Great video. We are looking at new boats right now. Not sure about aluminum. We will use it here in Southern California and the San Juan Islands. Any updates on how this boat has worked for you would be awesome:-)
We wanted a heavier boat with a deeper hull. We heard great things about the GFX. The layout also has a couple minor differences with a big one being the sliding door in and out of the cuddy
Nice. What is the performance with the 200's (GPH at cruising). I thought I read on Simrad's website that their Autopilot has a feature like Garmin's (shadow drive) where you can turn the boat without disengaging the autopilot to avoid obstacles. Maybe Garmin's patent expired ? I had the opportunity to circumnavigate and fish the Haida Gwaii Islands 3 years ago like you did. How did you like going thru the Skidgate Channel. We almost hit a deer when we went thru. All of the lingcod we caught were over 40#. The salmon fishing was excellent at the west end of Skidgate. You should make the run from Port Hardy over to Haida Gwaii. The Sandspit marina is very good place to keep your boat and the lodge above the marina will process your catch for a modest fee. Looking forward to more videos.
We average a burn rate of approximately 7.5/8 mpg when cruising at 3800 RPM. Cruising speed at roughly 25-28mph. Yes, you can manually turn the wheel if necessary to avoid obstacles while under auto pilot. Circumventing Haida Gwaii must have been spectacular!!

One sweet ride for sure. More episodes for sure, enjoy watching your show. One question, why did you go with GFX model over the standard 30' ?

check your number please... I think you have the wrong units @@ReelWestCoast
@@ReelWestCoast 7.5 mpg at 25 mph? Are you sure? That would be crazy
Excellent 👍🏻
👊
are you adding the seakeeper
That would be awesome. We would for sure.
A+++ vid
what are you guys going to be doing with the older boat? selling?
It sold almost immediately in the fall of 2021
How much one will cost?
No video of the cabin?.
Maybe one day.......
Здравствуйте. Это алюминиевые лодки??
Is this a salt water boat?
Twin 200s?? It could take 300s.
These boats tend to be lighter, and I don't think the "V" is terribly steep for a boat like this, so they can get away with less power.
I guess if I’m asking what the payment would be on something like that I’m already looking at the wrong boat😂
