I look at and test my new cheap bait boat, I got this to help me get the rods at range of 40 plus as I find it hard to cast accurately, due to Parkingsons's
I know people who have had these for a few years and they still going strong. They are a good starter boat but at some point, You may want to upgrade. I sold mine because the clubs I’m in have banned them. The bloke I sold it to loves it. I think for the price they’re good.
Hi Phil, great video mate enjoyed that. Can I ask you about the camera you are using please? It looks like you are streaming a live feed to your mobile phone from it. As most lakes don't have a wi-fi signal available is it a bluetooth connection between camera and phone? Thanks John
You can use Bluetooth to connect to your phone or just recorded on to the mini card and add video clip later, but yes has Bluetooth, oh mines a bit out dated now, it’s a five there is a 12 I think now, good camera go pro but the three built in mics can pick up a lot of noise from wind and things that touch what you context it too, I believe you can get a plug in mic with wind reducer on it .
Thanks Phil. My camera doesn't have Bluetooth. Just wanted to check if that's what you were using. I'll have to look round for a new camera with Bluetooth. Thanks mate.
Has anybody tested the range on this? Being so cheap I don’t believe the range they state at 500m but knowing it’s good out to 300m is the most I think most people will use in the uk.
Put it this way if you want to go 500m buy a actual boat but it’s well worth the money and price I’ve had mine go out about 180m which is far enough I tested my battery and it lasted for about 2 half hour this was mucking about with the kids so you’ll not get anything better for this price 👍✌️
I got one & tried it out .. surprised the hell out me.. the hopper opens smooth with bait in it, it's really fast with nothing in it, but deffo ok loaded up
Hiya mate I have a question I purchase the exact same one and struggling to get it to charge I have out it in charge for 5 hours but it’s showing no life at all
You have just got a new subscribe your not letting your condition hold you back and with that I applaud you
Thankyou, it’s not easy and I have good abs bad days, but I keep going
I've been looking at them on eBay for the price they look great thanks Phil, tight lines.
I've had the same boat for over a year and really surprised how good it is.
For the money £80 it's awesome.
Cheers for the video!
Thank you for the info!
Well done. Thank you.
I think these boats do a great job
The price is so cheap that if it only lasts 2 seasons youve had your monies worth

Got the same boat , but with Gps Phill. Yet to use it .. Will have to take it out and give it a try. Take care.
Can you tell me how it works
@@dominikwent6646 Will do when i get to use it.. Might be a while , got a few health issues to sort out..
What lakes still allow boats on the warrington card mate, I know they added a ban on some lakes this year
Sandieway lakes and worthington lakes
Just a question ?? ...is there any chance of putting a softer spring on the hopper, so it opens smoother
I've seen one with strong rubber bands attached to the hopper and the handle definitely slowed it down
I didn’t find it that bad
@@PhilipBrown1967 tbh Phil, I've found mine has eased up after a couple of uses... well happy with it now
@@shaunoakman5609 good I think they are well worth the money
@@PhilipBrown1967 deffo m8, I camo sprayed mine (carpy gucci) lol
Hi how's the boat going was thinking of getting one
It was working well but I’ve sold it now as my club has banned them. The bloke who bought it is made up with it
Has anybody tested the range on this? Being so cheap I don’t believe the range they state at 500m but knowing it’s good out to 300m is the most I think most people will use in the uk.
Only took it about 120 yards worked fine

can you plug a second battery in ?
I’m nit sure sorry, I’ve sold the boat now as they’re now banned on my local waters
I wanna try one but don't like the speed of the hopper looks like it would put my hook bait closer to me rather than the lead
I got one & tried it out .. surprised the hell out me.. the hopper opens smooth with bait in it, it's really fast with nothing in it, but deffo ok loaded up
It’s not too bad
Hiya mate I have a question I purchase the exact same one and struggling to get it to charge I have out it in charge for 5 hours but it’s showing no life at all
Sounds like a dud battery or a loose connection I’d wouldn’t mess with it too much you’ll void the warranty
Tell the shop you bought it from they will hopefully help
@@PhilipBrown1967 yea matey they are terrible no replies bought off eBay shame really I’ll have to send it back
@@northwestexoticanimals2479 oh that’s terrible could try reporting it to eBay
