That is a great build and a great boat. I had my Bass Raider out today.
awe, thank you! Your's was the inspiration for this one. I have since sold it, but wished I had not. Such a great boat. Cheers!
If you don't mind me asking, how much you sell it for ?
I used this motor on my SunDolphin SunSlider paddle boat, th-cam.com/users/postUgkxBZWgzfpS2Jj7JqIHyaSZjyVHNUgCKCBf as a substitute for peddling. i've used it once so far. My boats weight capacity is 545lbs. This 36ft lbs thrust motor propelled our little crew with ease. My friend, son and myself weigh 371 lbs combined, plus the weight of equipment. I truly enjoyed the little motor, it was super easy to install and works well. The motor itself is pretty lightweight. I will need to use it more to be able to comment on quality/durability. Many of the touch points are plastic which feels a bit cheap, but this is my first trolling motor so I don't know if this is normal. Considering the price point it's probably what you should expect. All in all I believe I got what I paid for and it does what I've asked of it. I would recommend. Kayak's, Canoe's, Small Dinghy's and Paddle Boats, I think its suitable for these applications.
Thee best setup I’ve seen for this boat! Awesome. Subbed!
Wow man that is an awesome build. Very well done video too!
Looking at getting the Raider 10e and I'm going to copy alot of your mods for sure.
There can never be too many mods! This thing is flames, bro!
True!
Great Mods
Can you provide the design and size of the PVC pipe used for the LED lights and rods on the front of your boat?
Great mods ! Question on your small rear wiring cover...Specs and how did you attach or is it just a real snug fit....I hate wires and i like your cover idea
Thanks and yes, I just took a couple pieces of wood and carpeted them to fit snug in the stern area. I think I may have also used a couple strips of velcro to keep it in place.
I agree. Wished you would have made video on slow step by step how to run wiring through body without splitting boat in half. Love what you did. I've had several pelicans and sundolphin boats. Honestly, their mire fun and maneuverable than big bass trackers. I just back my truck into water at tailgate with truck running. Push boat off and reverse.
Love it! I am a DIY fishing junkie and your video came out super nice. Wish had that setup. Clean and neat and rigged up beautifully
Awesome built out, the ultimate quick deploy fishing boat that gets where the big boat guys cant. Also props on filming and editing. keep it up.
Matt Thank you checking out the build.
Looks like a great Boat for cat fishing... 😎👍
Lol,,, have to give two thumbs up and a clean boat review. Your set up is on🔥🔥🔥.
You changed my mind about getting a kayak. You did a awesome job! Clean and well thought out. Good job!
Took mine out for the first time today with a friend and I love it. Best money I ever spent. 1,098.36 for the boat 30 thrust, battery, trickle charger, life vest, throw device, paddle and some other stuff. Still that’s very affordable. And lights. Gonna use whistle and fire extinguisher off my company truck. No sense in buying something I already have access to. 😬love the vid brother.
Had the same boat and trailer for 7-8 years also rigged up with troller in front 2hp Honda on back and fish finder hard wired on as well.... Great lol fishing boat! Awsome for trolling for strippers. Anchoring down and catfishing with dip bait also excel in that boat! I put a cooler in the front and made my fishing buddy use that as a chair so we always have cold drinks I also cut out piece of three-quarter inch green treated plywood and laid it between the chair rails in the front as a platform when bass fishing alone worked perfectly great job buddy sure got lots of great memories in mine and I hope you make plenty and yours as well!
Any idea how much a gas outboard engine adds to the weight?
Wow great boat and video. Really cool. Have you taken this set up on a river. I'm thinking of this set up but I only go on the river. Have you?
Thanks for checking out the video. No I have not tried to put in a river. Not sure I would. Stable but not too sure how it would go in a current.
Wow! I would so buy this from you. Great video and great job!👍🏼❤️🔥🔥🔥
I just got my Raider 10e and will keep following your great vids. Do you have a link for the electrical rocker panel? Thanks.
Here you go. I just pieced it together with Switches I found on Amazon. Thanks for watching and enjoy your new Pelican Bass Raider 10e.

Cool build that best and organized I've seen. 👍
You, sir, have mad skills.....awesome mods.....
Dam nice work.im looking at a sun dolphin 2 man looks almost the same boat and only 619.00 pre wired for troll motor.
Very nice video! Good resolution shot with a pretty steady hand, not panning too fast enabling me to see what I was trying to see without struggling. Well edited, good use of music too (not too much or too loud). Good content, well done. You have earned yourself a subscriber. Thanks for the video and keep them coming. I would like to see more of what you do with your Bass Raider.
I watched this video because I have been considering getting a Pelican Bass Raider 10E as well. I have a 24' sailboat and want to use it as a tender/dinghy. I intend to drag it in the water behind the sailboat and when I get to some shallow flats I will anchor in deeper water and then be able to use the Bass Raider in much shallower water. I live on the Gulf coast of Florida. I currently use a Hobie Outback for this but it is not nearly as stable of a platform as the Bass Raider nor does it have the weight capacity. I have a 2HP Honda 4 stroke that I intend to use on it.
I like what you did with your Bass Raider. Your video has given me some inspiration as to how I will end up modifying mine when I get it. Looks great, nice and clean mods (well finished). I would have tried to limit the amount of new holes in the hull by putting the battery voltage monitor in the battery box lid rather than cutting a hole that large into the boat. As long as you keep an eye on it though and keep it sealed well, it should be OK. You don't want water intrusion into the hull, it will get really heavy and be a pain to get out. I have read some reviews from other people who have had issues with that.
Thanks Rory for the great review and thanks for Subscribing. It has been a fun little boat indeed and would like to move up to a larger fishing boat in the next couple of years. This one is also nice for lakes that only allow for electric only boats. As for your comment on the water getting into the hull, I have never had an issue with that yet. If i get any sort of water on the inside floor I use a sponge to mop up and ring out. The pontoon drains are high up and each side as you have probably noticed and I do tip forward occasionally to let out any small bits of water that might have squeaked past the edge liner. Then I leave them open for a couple days to completely dry out.
Just don't understand how anyone could give this a thumbs down, unless its jealousy...Great job...subscribed :)
Extinction rebellion type brainwashed morons.
Ia there a video on how you unload into water??
You are a champ...great job...this is pride at it's best...awesome work✌
This is absolutely nasty I will be getting this next year
Completely badass! Bro this is the best one I've seen yet. And the background music is perfect. I got some questions one pvc pipe size. Get with me if you can. And always keepem tight
PVC used was 1 1/2"
great job,,its a $10,000 dollar, $500 dollar boat.
Very impressive, much more customized than I made mine. I just throw the paddle and everything else at my feet. Even if you had to get a new hull, it looks like most of that can be easily transferred over and redrilled. I did more to my trailer for the boat than the boat itself!
Great job on all the up grade's 👍
This video was amazing, the most awesome part was when I saw you catch a fish in it!! Great videon
Great job on choosing the best mods for your boat. I’m gonna have to copy some of them for my boat. Thanks for sharing
I went into this wanting to see the mods I left thinking wow what a great vid production nice mods
Nice video!
When running the 2.5hp do you place the trolling motor up front or just use the gas motor when your actually fishing..
Depends on if I was be myself or with someone else. Most of the time I take the electric only.
Ekspor ke Indonesia
Thanks for the info...Still working my way through my new hobby called Bass Raider
Man you did an awesome job. I want to buy one and now I will. I’m 330lbs Pro Athlete and hate having big boats I have to repair all the time. So this would be nice for me.
I hear ya. I like medium size boats though. Only problem is having to store larger boats and worry about damage in areas. I will be able to pan fish and crappie in areas with a lot of lawdowns and lake feeding creeks. I'm not a pro athlete but a pro crappie eater. 😆
awesome vid man, the boat looks awesome! we subbed, check out our channel too!
Beautiful work
It's beautiful .... great job guys !! Very inspiring
Thank you! KW. Looking at the Big Fish 105...... It's a toss up !!!??? Nice mods though!
I just got a old v hull for 400 and refurbished it then I just got a pelican
kayak I think this will be the next toy
nice work !!! the perfect bass rig..
Very clean mod . Great job guys !
Really like your setup, so after a year in a inflatable kayak, that was killing my back I decided to get me a 10E too. My problem was there none in Phoenix AZ so last Saturday I drove 430 miles to El Paso TX to pick one up from Academy Sports. You have the best setup on the Tube so I’m hoping to get mine done up like yours. Just picked up Mercury 2.5 and Minn Kota 40 lb trolling motor. The Amazon boxes are show up now so it won’t be long before I’m on the water too. Thanks for your videos!
So glad I was able to inspire you. I also look forward to getting on the water soon. Take some video to of your build. Exciting for sure when all the gear starts arriving. Cheers!
Nicest one I have seen yet. I'm in NC also. If you want to sell it, hit me up.
Thanks for checking it out. Will let you know if i sell it. Waiting for some warmer wether to get back on the lakes.
@@TheMechnicalOwl I'm talking about that cute brunette, not the boat! 😂😂😂😂JK
Where u guys live in NC i live here as well in city of Rockingham.
@Jere Here You're just sad. Really and truly sad. I feel sorry for you.
@Jere Here maybe he will get a heck of a deal on her though.
I really like this
You can put the transducer on top of the the trolling motor just in front of the blade, just use a high quality zip tie.
Pelican bass Raider looks outstanding great mods really nice video good job.fish on
people laugh at these little boats but what they don't realize is they can be stored almost any where you have the space, there great for kids, they don't sink, their very stable in the water and while you might never get one up on plane a 36 lb trust trolling motor with a proper deep cycle marine battery will push one around all day long at full throttle.
Hey bro! Cool bass raider you got there! Im looking to get one too. If you dont mind how much did it cost you to build the masterpiece? After watching the vid, i thought id just order one from you and ship it to Norcal. Great job with bassraider!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Much appreciated. Well with everything in it plus the trailer and 2.5HP outboard around $2500. I am going to be selling it for $2200. Its a great boat but I know have 2 other boats and need to let go of one.
The Mechanical Owl - i see, thats a really good deal! Im in the west coast though. If i was closer i wouldnt mind taking a look at it.
Hey cool video.
Do you still have, use, and like it?
Awesome build man. Just picked up a 10E today. Cool to see what people are doing with em.
You didn’t spend to much on if your happy with it
I’m happy for you that you did it and to have someone that likes going out on the water fishing with you
Have a VERY GREAT TIME !!:-)
Great job. Looks very well equipped for some good fishing.
Excellent vraiment bravo magnifique 👍👍👍👏👏👏
Man, I REALLY would love to see how you did a lot of this! I cant seem to figure out how I would run my wires and set up that switch panel. I'd love to have my Pelican looking this fresh!
I just drilled the small holes in the middle and towards the stern to pass the wires back and forth. With all the hard Styrofoam it is challenging for sure. I suggest getting a second person to help with this. My wife was a huge help in getting the wires through the hull. If I were to do it again, not so sure I would have done all the extra work, but it does grab the attention of others. Using wire hangers to pass the wire through was also a big help. Once you get one wire through, attach a guide pull-wire so you can pull back and forth for future wire runs.
@@TheMechnicalOwl Amazing mods! Did u consider running all the wires inside the hull so u didn't have to run them down the middle of the bottom and add a floor to the boat? Does having the wires in the bottom of the boat prevent u from washing boat out with a hose?
I want to do the same light mod on my Bass Raider! Dope boat man 💯💯
I just got one a few weeks ago. Starting planning all my mods but I still can't figure out how I would run the wire through the hull/pontoons? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated and that's one heck of a boat. Nice job
I started with drilling at the center section for my volt meter and switches, from there I drilled the hole towards the stern mirroring the spot where the trolling power cable is (starboard) side. Then using some wire hangers to fish the wire through. That took sometime and suggest doing with 2 people and a flashlight. You will have to get through some of the foam and work your wires through. It was not an easy task and took my wife and I about an hour to run wires to the front and rear. I also suggest running a pull wire and leaving behind just in case you decide to run additional wires. Always use a chase wire so that you don't have to keep fishing new wire through.
@@TheMechnicalOwl thanks for the info. Hopefully I can get it finished soon and get on the water
Awesome little boat brother you did a fantastic job rigging it up! I have to disagree though you can never have to many mods 😂 I also really liked the editing you done in the video very nice! Keep up the great work I’m looking forward to checking out some more of your videos!
Much appreciated, hope to get some more videos out soon.
Song?
Im getting one do you think it can hold a small out board
Yes for sure. I would recommend 5HP or under to be safe.
@@TheMechnicalOwl ok
Omg 😱 I love the mods !! Please come pimp my Bass raider !! Thats's perfect. What did everything cost you once you were done?
Nice video
Great job on all the modifications. Very nice work. Thanks for sharing.
Nice build man
That’s amazing little boat. Thanks for sharing.
Crap I truly LOVE your boat! I know you are proud and who could blame you it is as they say, "Like you like it".
Y have to put muzic back ground?
Freaking amazing! Now I need one.
Hi, I have same fish finder and mount. I am having issues connecting transducer to transducer mount. Can you share with me what nylon spacers or washers you used size etc?
I had some small plastic washers left over from something else. Used 2 on each side to fill in the gap. Sorry I have since sold the boat or else I would send you a close up pick.
Just got a bass raider 10 e and I am trying to do this exact thing ! I love the cleanness of the boat . Very nice mods! I wish you did a video of how to do the wiring ! I am clueless !!!
Love it! Job well done!
Great video. I just purchased a Pelican 10 e. Any videos on how you wired everything?
Unfortunalty I did not do a wiring video. Everything was 12v with simple toggle switches used to illuminate the lights and turn on the voltage meter. Nothing too crazy. You are going to love your Pelican. Please send me a video link of yours if you do any updates. Cheers!
@@TheMechnicalOwl thanks and will do
This will be my channel for my Pelican. Thanks again.
About to make a mod video for my bass tracker! this is an awesome video
I also used the same fish finder!
I’m thinking of one of these for the ocean man. How bad an idea? I normally kayak fish and this is like a half step above
Navraj Gill i would probably stick with the kayak for the ocean and use the Pelican Bass Raider for inner coastal and lakes.
Navraj Gill no ocean
The Mechanical Owl how come? If I could just stick a motor on a kayak I’d be happy haha
This is what i love to own. Thanks for uploading. Many days i tried to search , at last this is the one i like most.
Cool video. Love your camera shots and editing.
love all the mods love pelican boats,my next purchase already have the catch 120.i also live in nc near Raleigh.
I would change that motor for a 5hp tiller and I would also fill it with 2 part closed cell foam.
Nice build though!
beautiful boat. 👏👍 Nice video !
The pvc light mount is clever ,and 4mph covers a lot of ground if you are fishing
Well done to You's all everyone hard work well done well earned. Wishing all you best havelong fun catching lots of fish , more.
This would be a perfect set up for me ... can someone have this guy get at me
Yak killer!!! Awesome job. I want to do a tiny boat project so bad!!
It sucks to buy brand new shit and then have to drill a ton of holes. You would think that the manufacturer would plan ahead for such things.
Nice job on the mods. Does that suzuki have a 20" shaft? Or is it a 15" shaft?
Thank you - yes they have a 20 inch version. onlineoutboards.com/collections/suzuki-outboard-motors
@@TheMechnicalOwl Thank you. So is the one you are using on your boat the 15" shaft version?
@@MrSirPhase3 yes
Great video… cool-ass little boat man.
Great job. Love the mods you did. Very functional.
Chris can you give more info on how you did your pvc rigging for poles and lights on the front of your pelican,please! I just bought the same boat and love your setup. We’d like to do the same but would like more info and punch list. Thank you so much.
That’s dope man wish u were my neighbour lol
Question, Did you only attach the Scotty base with screws or did you also use something like Marine goop? Great job!
Yes, I only use stainless steel screws. Thanks for watching
Such a clean rig 👍👍
Sweet!
Awesome boat!
Awesome mods ! I don catch a lot bass, but I love fishing ? Crazy world. Thanks for the ideas, looking for a Raider this fall
mike academy sports credit card. Cost ya like $25 a month.
Great little boat I have the same one it`s fun to add things . Great video
great for fishing, greetings success
Very awesome looking boat at a decent price point.
