UPDATE3: A month later, the company still refuses to respond. I filed a claim through BB and this is the response I received from BBB: "Regretfully we must inform you that our numerous correspondences made on your behalf to Newport Vessels have gone unanswered and we have closed your complaint as No Response.". If you buy anything from them, just know what you are signing up for. UPDATE 2: I filled a warranty claim and the company is not responding on any channel: live chat, email, or phone. First UPDATE: still one star, but I could go for 0. I went fishing for the first time. Freshwater. Motor started acting up after 2 hrs. It was full of water. The seal between the magnet housing and the brushes housing was faulty. Customer service couldn't find the part. That seal actually does not exist on the diagram! I found it randomly by googling it, because you can't find it by motor type on their website, as weird as it sounds. I ordered the part, paid $30 for 2 day shipping, it arrived in 3 days, I asked for the difference in shipping because it didn't arrive on time, and since then the company refuses to respond to me. Guys, trust me on this: don't do business with this company. You may be lucky, or you may regret it like me. Original review: Got this to replace a 40lb Minn Kota. I have another Newport 62lb that behaves well so far in saltwater. So I decided to get another one, 55lb, for use in fresh water. - Out of the box the reverse is making rattling noises like the wheel of fortune. Sounded like something loose, maybe a screw of the plate or a brush. Anyway, too risky to go out with it like this. Could have been armature rubbing on a wire and then you get smoke. - Sent a video to Customer Service, and the dialogue that followed was ridiculous. - First, they said it's normal. Nope. It's definitely not. After using, fixing, and servicing trolling motors for 20 years, I can say it's definitely not normal. - Then they said I shouldn't hear it when in water. Well, I'm not interested in hiding a problem, I'm more interested of not getting stranded 5 miles from the ramp. Not to mention the stealth part being gone for fishing. - Than he said he conferred with a colleague and the colleague said I shouldn't worry about it. Wow. That's definitely another level. What was offensive was how dismissive they were with this response. - Finally, they said they can't do anything unless I test it in water. My next fishing vacation is in about a month. And that's out of Amazon return window. - Anyway, I decided to open the motor and check. Indeed, one of the brushes was chewed unevenly. And that's on a motor that ran a total of 4 minutes in it's life. See pic. The problem is the manufacturing quality of the armature and lack of Quality Control. The posts of the armature are not sloped as they should and are unequal in height, and they hit the top of the brushes. - Definitely Minn Kota from now on. I never learn that saving $50 may result in a lot more trouble.

I bet this guy has NEVER went snorkeling!

Horrible video, quit CZcams today.

Ugh AI voice

2024 but 2 yrs ago was 2022

The pronunciations of the AI narration is funny.

So is the tranx 200 a bait caster or a spinning reel. I can't tell by the video

“Best spinning reels” shows a casting reel

Ai

This is an AI generated video. Total bollocks

I know this is an old video, but wtf is this crazy reverb lmfao?

AI voice over is horrible

Im fitting outriggers and a 12v outboard motor,so far I'm thinking aluminium all one piece bouy each side and motor on the right.any insights or tips welcome🤞

I saved money buy only buying lenses to see bass.

What kind of fish is a base? 😅

Do not listen to this video horrible information most of kast kings products are garbage

Top 10 from Indonesia❤🙏👍

I got both. Tidal 110 is the best

Harley tent for harley riders? Can i buy one ,i ride a zongshen.hahahah😅😂😅😂😅

What lenght rods everybody always talks of the 6' 6" what is wrong with the 7'

your pictures are confusing. stick with the specific reel when talking about it :(

I love how 90% of the rods shown in the video were surf rods lmao

would be sooo cool to have one of these but I already 2 NuCanoes and now I'm poor.

“This Ow trigger rig is a favorite among many Kay archers”

Bro recorded this in a public bathroom

I had current about 4 years ago and they sucked! No color pop what so ever. I wonder If being I was a newbie that maybe my corals were browning out, so thats a possibility.

... for "base," trout, or something similar. Daywa... This idiot shouldn't have one subscriber! Daywa!

How does the frog + compare to the reg frog in terms of bouncy ? I use them for snorkeling and can't stand flippers that float and stay on top , the reg frog seems to be hevy enough to stay down making it quiet

Fake i formations

Made this video 2 years in advance wow

Can someone explain whats happening at 1:05😂

Pen reel iss a big waste of time to buy with your money poor quality

Stop using this dumb voice.

What is with the reverb echo sound? Dumb dumb dumb.

Climb out of the toilet !

AI-generated drivel.

Isnt it pronounced piranha? Like the fish? Or does that make too much sense.

Your list is totally jacked up. The only decent glasses on this list are the Costss and the Smiths. The rest of them are garbage. Maui Jim Serengeti and Revo should be on this list.

Excellent rods. I own two. One spinning, and one casting.

AI garbage channel.

Bullshit AI video

Useless review.

Should say worst, pawfly is it's correct spelling has never made anything worth having...lol

None of these. The ones on the thumbnail are the best. OG Manta blades. Can't beat em. Only thing that comes close in modern is yucca or hydro OG

No CCK….you show it on the cover of the video, but then don’t include it in the video? Why are you showing 15 other Mercer knives and only one shot of the their cleaver?

onde anda as picasso que video é esse ???

Is the sea eagle 285 or 375FC too difficult to manage in a fast river?

Great video. Thank you. Might you cover batteries for electric reels please? Thanks
