Salt Marsh Heron 18 Walkthrough | How My Boat is Rigged
Bad advice. If you have ever uprighted a jet ski you would loop your hands and arm over the top of your topside down like your strap and just pull it back over. No one is finding paddles and straps after flipping all there gear. I could 100% show everyone a better actually life saving method. If you have a kayak look at videos of how to upright jet skis by yourself.
By all means post it up. We are certified instructors. This is not something we just made up and put out there. You have to stay calm and locate your paddle or getting back on the kayak will leave you with no means of moving it and you only need the strap if you have a wide boat and it is hard to flip. I too have a jet ski and they are not the same.
my neck of the woods!!
Pretty awesome area!!
For someone that will be primarily river fishing solo, which kayak between the Pike and Kuda do you think would be better? I'm leaning toward the Pike since it seems like it would paddle a bit better into current with the keel in front.
Depending on the river, I actually prefer the Kuda. I fish shallow smaller rivers with shoals and like how light and easy it is to move around. It also goes a bit shallower than the pike because the keel sticks down a bit. I use the whitewater fin or no fin depending on the situation.
Do you think the dual Power Poles have been effective when anchoring facing into the wind and/or current? Thanks.
I do. I have not had super strong current or wind yet but it doesn’t take much to spin the boat without them and I have been pleased with the setup so far!
I don't fishing near a dam is anything like a hurricane.
Been through several and their can be some similarity’s lol
$10-$12K for the set-up?
I am really close to the 10k mark I think. I had a lot of the gear from other builds so I don’t know exactly but that is very close.
How’d you mount that lock and load base without track in that spot?
Hey! I used a 1/4 20 stud in place of the T-bolt. www.yakattack.us/TS15_1420_6_p/ts15-1420-6.htm?gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIy8XxneL3hwMVbW5_AB1siwroEAQYASABEgJAIPD_BwE
@@roadtripangler awesome ordered! Thank you
Glad to see you have a tape measure! I was waitng for it to get dark out before you completed that! My Jackson Bite is still faster! 😂
But does it have two power poles?!? Lol
@@roadtripangler haha!! Good luck with it looks like a great setup!
Great video Jameson.
Thanks!!
All these top kayak manufacturers keep making rigs better, more efficient, easier to rig…..what a great time to be a kayak angler! Another great video Jameson!
For sure! So many great options! You can really dial in the best boat for what you’re doing!
Yea it's awesome if you can afford all of that. I'm a kayak angler and I can't afford stuff that nice but I make do with what I have. Just a Crack pipe dream for now
Great video buddy
Thanks!!
What a cool episode of you and your wife together, seeing a little side of your family! And happy 8th birthday little man! 👊😁🎁🎉
Thanks! It is always an adventure with the fam lol
Love it! You know, if your bride outfishes you, it just means you are a great guide 😅 that's the excuse I always use !!!
Right lol!
How long is the shaft of the motor? Do you need a long shaft (20")?
This motor is what Torqeedo calls their short shaft, but it is closer to a 20” shaft. I believe a short shaft would work fine though because I felt like it was deeper than necessary.
Actually after some digging it appears they recommend the 20” shaft
@@roadtripangler I purchased a 15" suzuki 2.5 to go on my flycraft 2.0, but it was too short. The rocker on the boat is so high the prop was completely out of the water. Went back to the shop and upgraded to the Honda 2.3 long shaft and it is perfect. Thanks for the info!
i've flipped my kayak once. in the magroves where the saltwater crocs live. i wasn't this graceful.
I would probably be walking on water lol
Great fishing, beautiful family, all makes a great video!
Thank you!! It was a great time for sure!
What do you do for heat in your camper?
For the coldest nights, anything below freezing, i have a little buddy heater that I sit on the shelf so I can reach down and cut it off. It runs off propane. It is rated for indoor use and will absolutely run you out of there. I typically turn it on till I am comfortable in the bed and then cut it. Turn it back on in the morning and lay there till it is warm and get up. If I was doing more winter time camping and had my family along on those trips I might look into something a bit permanent.
😂😂😂 "Just one more cast!" She's a keeper!
Right!! I love seeing her get excited about fishing!
Me and my wife do the same stuff but we always have a great time together. Great video buddy
lol! Yea I don’t know why she puts up with me!
@@roadtripangler I ask myself that same ? Daily lol
I’ve never run wire or rigged a kayak. I’ll have to look at your past videos to see if you show a novice. I am curious how this kayak will perform in rough water.
I am posting a rigging video where I do a little rigging on this boat soon! I think it will do good in rough water, but have not had the opportunity to try it. I know several of the Bonafide team folks took it to Panama and took it offshore!
God damn, maybe I prefer my tourijg kayak instead of a fishijg kayk haha
They can be a a beast if you end up wrong side up.
Nice review Jameson
Thanks!!
I live my Bonafide. It’s not that same one, but it has the same seat and similar boat design. The seat is the most comfortable seat on a kayak I’ve ever used. No backache or sore knees after a long day on the water.
They crushed it with the seat!
Excellent review my friend! Very helpful, Thanks for taking the time.
Thanks for watching!!
Brother, this one got in my feels! 🥹What I wouldn’t give to be able to fish with my ole man if he were still alive! A memory that’ll last a lifetime! Sir, you’re blessed! Great episode as always bud! Keep it up! ❤️👊
For sure man! I am 💯 percent blessed! Thanks for watching as always brother!
No one ever mentions, although you eluded to set up times, the whole experience with transportation. First off, it is a heavy and awkward (almost) 90 pounds to move while deflated and not as easy to do which is dependent on strength and age (for one person). As far as using it as a portable boat, going out obviously requires loading into your vehicle, unloading at site, inflation (about 35-45 minutes with one electric pump). Then after some time on the water, deflation, rolling it up, lifting and loading it into the vehicle again and driving home. Once home, naturally you have to unload it one more time, for a total of 4X lifting this thing and its motor. You have back issues, I wouldn't recommend. Lastly, the majority of owners of this boat, of which I am one, ultimately will get a trailer solely for the above stated reasons. It is a fun and stable boat. Great honest review, there is a lot to like about it. I do feel by the time you get a 9.9hp motor (many do), the weight of the motor (about 60 lbs for a 5-6 hp, or 95 lbs for a 9.9), you will have spent as much or more than you would have for a used, well equipped 12'-14' boat that already comes with a trailer in most cases. Again, great little boat, but the weigh of everything can just make it less enjoyable to use, hence again, why the majority get a trailer.
I agree that setting up and tearing down each time would be more difficult. I transport it fully inflated on my truck rack and throw the motor in the bed or on a trailer so I am dealing with the full set up and honestly, with a cart, I feel it is pretty easy to maneuver. I am not trailering it like a normal boat and can move it around at home and to the water with a kayak cart while fully rigged as I had it in the video. I feel this is the real advantage to this boat and having the ultimate option to store delayed if needed. If you are setting up and tearing down each time and can sacrifice the capacity, something like an inflatable kayak or the FishSup might be a better choice. Great feedback!
"Langes"
One issue you did not mention--where do you put your catch??
I am typically a catch and release angler, however when I do keep fish I go with a cooler bag on the bow! Easy and it comes off quick when I get to the truck!
Jameson what kayak would you recommend for fishing in the marsh? I’m looking at the PWR, Jackson Bite FD, and the Old Town Sportsman PDL 120.
Those are all solid options. If you plan to motorize, it would for sure be the PWR. I like how open the floor is without the drive. The Bite is awesome as well but would be more difficult to add the motor. If you were just going to keep it a pedal drive it would probably be the better option. I like the new belt drive and the way the lower unit kicks up without taking up more room in the deck. This is key when you’re shallow and wanting to stand and fish. Hopefully that helps. One more thing. I like to site fish, so I like motoring to my spots and then standing to fish which is why I personally like the PWR. Another great option to consider for motorization is the Nucanoe Pursuit.
Great review Gotta be committed and have the right water for that boat. What a tank.
Thanks! For sure. It is the right boat for the right situation! I think that is the cool thing about where we are with kayak fishing. So many options to fit different needs. In the old days, can’t believe I am saying that, we just put rod holders on whatever kayak and called it a fishing kayak. Now you can really be picky and dial in what fits you best!
What if a bull shark tries to take a bite would it hold up
Well I would say it would need a patch after that. Nice thing is it has 4 different inflatable sections so hopefully you can manage.
@@roadtripanglerI was asking because a bull shark attacked my kayak on a fishing trip beginning of the summer
Dang…I have not had that happen and hope it doesn’t. Glad you’re ok. Bulls are crazy…
@@roadtripanglerthanks me too,it was a terrifying experience and I’m kinda scared to go out now I’m looking for something different until I can afford a boat
You can buy lazy susans to put between the seat & the storage lids. No big deal. The fwd storage box should be a cooler. I would take the fwd storage box & rotate 180 to open from the rower.
For sure!! I have been meaning to do that for the front especially. Great thought on the front box and that would be easy to do
Nice video, can you link or specify those aluminum stands the kayak is resting on? Thanks 🍻
Thanks, honestly I found these years ago at an event. They had been left behind so I grabbed them. I have no idea who makes them. I also have a set of Suspenz rack that I like.
Nice one Jameson!
Thank you sir!
A strap is something I need to get just in case. My kayak is much smaller and it's one you sit inside of. I haven't tried it yet but you'd think a smaller kayak would be harder to get back into.
Actually sometimes they are easier unless you’re talking about one that has a really small cockpit like a white water or touring kayak. They take a bit different technique and some times even a friend.
Can it be set up as tandem? It would allow me to take my grandkids once in a while.
They could easily carry an adult and a child, but you would have to figure out a seating option. They aren’t “designed” to be tandem so it would just take some thought. I would also say it would depend on the size of the adult and child. I am 225lbs and my son is 8 and probably 70lbs or so. We can do it but he is really getting to the point where for space and comfort I would go with a bigger option
Fishing with family. It doesn’t get any better than that, Unless you find a hunny hole. Thanks for sharing that.
For sure! Thanks for watching!
Love the Smallmouth
My favorite!!
Smallmouth fishing, so much fun! Love it!
They are my favorite as well!!
How many have torn? Because it's inflatable, it doesn't seem durable.
I have two inflatable kayaks, this inflatable skiff, and two inflatable rafts. I have never torn any of them. I got a couple of pin holes in one from sharp fish fins, but it took days to leak down and I was able to patch it really easy
I like the Project M. How did you mount the rotopax and other items. I cant find a molle panel to work. Are you mounting straight into the side of the wall for the recovery boards. Thanks. Once again beautiful.
Hey! Mine has the track option on the sides and I made a plate out of aluminum to span from one to the other. Bolted it on and then attached the rotopax to it. For the MaxTrax I did the same but they are just attached to the top track bar with the bracket. You can buy their bracket and do the same. There is a Molle panel made to work with Four Wheel’s track spacing. Here is the link to it too: prospeedrack.com/collections/accessories/products/four-wheel-campers-molle-panels?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR3kljU7IP6ohOqsB0wNf7F04HskedUylC5thtbDV36qL9jxF1KnF-CQJsU_aem_kt9nIiTsy_zsv3C-E8ac4A Hopefully that helps!

What’s the dust situation with that camper? I’m on the fence between this or the regular camper.
So at first I had some around the tailgate. Not the camper but around my truck tailgate. A bit of bulb seal in the areas that needed it took care of 90% of it. I see a little when I am on really bad roads but only around the bottom edge of the gate. I needed my truck to haul stuff so this was my only real option and it had been awesome!
Awesome video! Always fun hitting the river with a friend for some fishing and friendly competition
Thanks!! For sure!
I used to catch them with live shrimp, good times.
For sure!!
I used to love fishing in Everglades Natl Park. Great video.
It is a beautiful place
Max PSI in the water is safe! Because you have the water as a cooler. If you pull the boat out of the water it is recommended release some air 1 to 2 psi out.
For sure. I typically inflate a few below max regardless still very rigid!
Awesome walk-through! I have a jackplate and powertech on my Heron 16 and i can jack up super high! You definitely have a ton of room to raise your engine. Especially with that stepped transom pushing the water up. One other thing i did was added a cavitation plate on my Tohatsu to hold the water around the prop and help with trim. It acts as an extra tab. Love my Saltmarsh! Wouldn't trade it for anything..
Since I filmed this I raised it to the top holes on the motor and man it performs way better! It would be hard for me to ever want a different boat. I mean I would like to have the new Caicos too for shallower applications but that is a but I haven’t hit the lottery yet lol.
