    In response to the comment about Gheenoe as a company, It was just a statement worded poorly. I don't have anything against the company. Expect another video like this Summer of 2020.

      I appreciate that comment explanation. I actually did watch the whole thing...as I'm very interested on getting a gheenoe and trailer set up... but it sure made me wonder what you were talking about. Maybe go back and put some words on the screen during that comment?
      Anyway, I'm gonna subscribe. I just watched 2 of your vids, will watch more. I have an older (1988 aluminum bass boat) and I've fished out of a solo canoe for decades. Now, in my 50s I find myself looking for a little more stability in my "small boat/creeks/small lake/10 hp and under lakes fishing." I'm looking at a gheenoe vs a jon boat as I'm so familiar with the general shape of a csnoe/gheenoe, plus the ability to paddle/pole it.
      Thanks again and good luck fishing.

    First off, I wanted to tell you that when I'm in the mood for a fishing video, you are my go-to channel. You never disappoint. Especially top water strikes. I think I can speak for all fisherman that top water strikes are exciting. Thanks for that. About your Gheenoe. You mentioned you purchased boat, trailer, and motor for $2200. I wonder where you purchased it. I went to the Gheenoe web site. I added up boat, trailer, and 9.9 merc motor. I'm coming up with about $9300.

      Thanks man! One more question if you don’t mind. I just bought a used highsider which came with the same endura 55 TM. I’ve been going back and forth on whether to get a 24 or 27 battery. Do you find that your 24 gives you enough power for the day? It would be nice to have the extra power with the 27 but not sure if having to deal with extra weight is worth it.

    • @justin_menendez
      @justin_menendez  4 роки тому +1

      The only reason I dont have one is because I think it crowds the boat a little. Makes going from front to back slower. I typically just sit on the cooler and if its choppy then I will just lean against it.
