My 1290 just arrived in California. I think it is the first of the Evolution Series in the USA. Previously owned one of the three 1250's in the country. Loved it so ordered a new one!
One of the best boat test videos I’ve ever seen, real quality and bid kudos to Alex as the presenting is cracking and I remember a few months ago he was ridiculed on here
Great tour and test Alex, thanks. Really interesting option with plenty to like and probably the ideal boat for someone who’s been fishing for years but now wants to take the family with them. Genuinely impressive, especially considering the price.
Oh Boy!! We had one customer who had a 12m on IPS. I'm not saying he was rough with it, but most of us were pretty impressed it lasted a whole season. He went out in some silly weather and always came home. His deckle, wife and family told him to sod-off. The only damage, after 4 years of abuse, was a cracked rear screen window.
I prefer open deck space over horrible bench seating with some equally horrible little table. However, I would also like to see some tie down points on the deck to bring some dive gear or other gear or extra fuel etc...Also, I rarely see a spot for hanging wet weather gear, wetsuits . Would like to see some night navigation lights
Nice. And unlike some of the other 'practical' models from other manufacturers (that I also really like) Rodman positioned the TV so more than one person can watch without abusing their neck. That's why they built the galley console the way they did. I wonder if the fridge is a 12V compressor type?

Been impressed with Rodman for 3 years. Congrats! Was thinking the 890 for Florida. Some day. Cheers!
The Dennis Rodman? Brilliant.

top review... actually technical rather than mentions of meile dishwashers. keep it up.
What a great review. No nonsense, just all the details explained perfectly. Well done. Oh! Great boat also.

Hi Alex. Great review of what is obviously a great boat. No show ponies here. Just business..... excellent!

A thorough and incisive review, thanks.
So much better than the Jordan 1290!
I like this presenter

Very good video and test. Certainly a boat that is a very good product and value.
Thanks.
I like it

I think you meant stern thruster,shaft drive is less problematic with bow and stern thrusters,I would think only those millionaires would have ips
My 1250 had IPS. Heavy on the maintenance and not a millionaire. Ordered my 1290 with shafts and front and rear thrusters.
CRUISING BOAT MY HORSE FEATHERS !! THIS THING IS A FISHING BOAT WITH ADDED CRAP !!!
