Wow. I love the rv bus. So luxury. I can picture myself retirement with traveling on an rv bus. Thanks Richard for mentioning my channel. Thanks for the two home made lures that you sent to me. I have not tried them due to crabbing lately. I just caught a couple lings with the small lures and very happy with them. I did mention your website in the video I just uploaded yesterday.
Thanks so much for the great comments and the YT support as well,
I'll be fishing in the morning at 🌅 i
Will be finally able to make a fishing video the forecast looks good but cold 30 degrees at sunrise.
Also thanks for the products recomdations alot of your friends have purchased my products
👍👍👍
Thanks for an honest comparison.
To be fair maybe you should compare kingfishers off shore to Duckworths off shore boats. You are comparing their coastal boat which is not as wide or deep ect.. as their off shore to Duckworths off shore boat. I love them both but lets do apples to apples. Just saying.
Sounds fair. I'll see if I can do that,👍
@@richstiefel Still a great video, I like your channel.
Thanks for doing the comparison enjoy it. The only thing is they’re not boats like for like the Kingfisher was an bay cruiser not the offshore model
Im starting to like the duckworths more. Big northriver OS fan.. Deepest vee in the game and great quality. they don't have the best interior fit and finish but very seaworthy boat. The kingfisher offshore or even the new GFX has wider beam and deeper vee than the costal series shown in this video.
Both owned by the same company, Bolton Marine Group with Kingfisher being the mother company. Good attributes in both boats no boat can escape criticism. Two different boat styles here in two different price groups not a fare comparison at all.
Two price points agreed
but I have been messaged by several viewers requesting what my thoughts are on Kingfisher boats and the lower price point boats so this is more of a comparison what the extra money will get you
Yes I know that this was not the offshore model but the offshore has the same build quality that I saw on the coastal express
Also this was not an technical comparison it was just a spur of the moment comments on what I saw and my personal opinions
Your comments appreciated and welcome
Thanks for watching
FYI the sides on the Kingfisher are 37” the Duckworth 40” so that’s 3” not half an arms length. As well I would prefer the keel guard over no keel guard as the DW has.
Also the reason KF does not run the engine bracket to the bull bottom is less drag. When at idle or sitting it sits in the water providing buoyancy but when under plane it’s out of the water causing less drag.
You’re comparing an offshore Duckworth to a coastal kingfisher. Try comparing offshore to offshore they are more than comparable. Other than that love your channel! Trump 2024!
Hey! Thanks Rich! Well done...
The new bus is sweet! Keep the faith...
Thanks Jerry gotta do what you gotta do to keep the wife happy!
Happy wife = more fishing ! 🎣
@@richstiefel Roger that!
Hi Richard! Keep up the good videos! Love watching your Fishing life. Winter has come to the North woods here in Canada. It is bitter cold and I wish I was fishing the Beautiful Oregon Coast. Looks so warm there too! Good luck out there Rich. Keep the videos coming.
Thanks Murray
The winters are fairly mild here so I am able to fish all winter long
thanks for watching more vids will be soon coming!!
Great, helps with making choises!
Ha, I recall your earlier comment that you might get something smaller if you trade your RV, but for some reason that didn't seem to make sense lol. Your new one is very nice!
Ya was looking at a different one but the production got delayed I'm somewhat impatient and
somewhat spontaneous so they had this one on the lot !!
I do love how your halling this boat with a half ton. Please do a video on just that. I have a half ton too and want a boat similar to yours but I really dont want to buy a bigger truck also.
Yes it works great for my purpose (short trips to the boat launch and storage )
And an occasional long trip (with an airbag setup)
If you are going to make alot of longer trips such as 100 miles or more I would recommend a diesel 2500
Thank you. I will take that into consideration when the time comes. All the best and be safe out there.
It's been mentioned many times that you are comparing an offshore boat to a coastal boat but I wanted to mention that the kingfisher is lighter by about 1300lbs dry weight to dry weight so trailering will be easier and you will need less power to push it through the water and therfore burn less gas so if you aren't going far off shore it might be a better boat.
Spent a lot of time on the Kingfisher 2825 then on a Hewes Alaskan the Kingfisher beats you to death very painful ride and you could actually feel it twist and flex!!! The Hewes, smooth like butter.
Very true very needs specific
For my purpose I'm happy to have to have your boat but the kingfisher would definitely be a good option
Thanks for the info Rich.
That's not a cap, it's a keel guard. Especially useful for those of us that like to beach are boats ( hunting, hiking, camping and agate picking )
Good info thanks
thanks your video
Dang, you pull that with a half ton?! And here I was worried about my 3/4 diesel if I ever bought a big boat like that. Guess I shouldn’t worry so much.
The 1500 works for short trips and relatively flat ground but if you have to do long-distance and hills you definitely want the 3/4 ton diesel
I actually just got 2500 Ram and sold that truck
Thanks for watching and appreciate the comments 👍
Congratulations on the new Newmar. We bought the 2020 DS 4081 so I could tow my Duck 24 Pacific Pro. From bumper to bumper is 74', which is 9' over the CA limit for towing. I will do my first tow super early Friday morning to avoid traffic. Are you full-timing it in the coach?
Yeah we were actually going to get a 4081 but the order got delayed by two months I'm a little bit impatient, they had this one on the lot so I bought this one
No full time yet it's always possible though
Sounds like you have really nice setup!
Where do you normally go fishing?
@@richstiefel I live in NorCal, so normally San Francisco or Bodega Bay. I am going camping for Thanksgiving for 10 days on the coast, I hope to get some crab and bottom fish. I plan to head up to Newport area soon, they have some nice resorts to stay at, but it is too far to bring my boat.
@@reel-grit well if you make it to Newport hit me up I'll take you out!!
My new days off are going to be Wednesday Thursday off
That will be my fishing days as long as the ocean and weather cooperate
November December can be pretty nasty in this area
Have a great trip!
@@richstiefel I may take you up on your offer. If I do, I will let you know way in advance.
I like my Duckworth
if you are here for the boat comparison, skip to about 12:12
I had Duckworth Pro-Steelheader II, and it just made to be the best aluminum boat, what are you think about Smartwave boats?
Thanks Chang ,I'll have to check them out!
Crap Trumper you compared a Kingfish coastal model to Duckworth. I hope you did that by mistake. If you did it knowingly you should really get into used cars! The offshore Kingfisher is set up way better than your lead sled Duckworth. The Kingfisher offshore models are faster and have way more range than your Duck Hunting boat and pound for pound way tougher. You Duckworth is fine for putting around the Marina but if you want to head offshore ,step up to the Offshore Kingfisher. One nice hidden feature your Duckworth has is you can use it for a berthing tug if you want. Just throw a tractor tire on the bow and Shazam, you got yourself a tug.
Cheers
From Canada
how about u compare ur duckworthless 28’ offshore vs stabicraft 2750ucc 😉 for sure duckie’s is better than kingfisher in ride but if u wanna talk about stability n buoyancy., ur duckie wont be able to handle itself with a stabi 2750ucc..
hopefully u’ll get a chance to compare the two fairly soon 👍
Yes I will check one of those out they look like very nice boats!
Good comparison Rich!
Hi richard. I like your boat, best boat allaround, wish you fish good, hope to fish with you
What are the top 10 brands of aluminum pilot house boats?
I’m getting a 28.
Are you already gonna upgrade your boat?
Lol
This one works just fine 😁
But maybe if Trump pulls it off this time !!!👌👍👌👍
Thanks for watching!
I prefer the yellowfin boat 39'foot 4 400 horse Outboard engines lot more stable than a duck worth is
Ya me too when I move to Florida that will be my boat of choice!
Duckworth emblem is different metal thats the problem
That makes sense 😂
They should do better
@@richstiefel you'd think so
@@richstiefel hows your ride, I'm looking at. 27 deep v with. 10 foot beam but have had 2, back surgeries and dint want to get beat and put back in the hospital
@@pilot41186 Long as you have suspension seats and you don't get in a hurry and go too fast you should have a decent ride
@@pilot41186 Shockwave s5 seats are great, as well as airwave suspension seats.
This is kinda not a good comparison cause you are comparing a costal to a offshore
Yeah I'm also it is a 26ft duckworth comparing to 28 foot kingFisher
Definitely not a technical comparison just a visual
Comparison
Thanks for watching
But both the kingfisher coastal and offshore look very similar
The hull design and cabin design look the same to me
