Look at the inside space of the 300 Tuffy from Polycraft ! Light weight and very stable this thing can go up to 18 mph with two adults on a 15 Hp Outboard. At the show they had a $2995.00 special but the boat is usually 3295.00 at dealers.
Many accessories can be put on this plastic boat. In the video they show how you can repair scratches and scuffs easily. This boat looks like a great yacht tender or a great boat to throw on the back of a truck
I will get a small commission if you purchase this boat and say Alfred Montaner at Check Out. The people at Polycraft offer special deals for my subscribers using the links below.

King of Haulover invaded polycraft boom 😎
Can't wait to see that
Good luck ... wear your EPIRB.
If they can handle what Aussies put them through they will eat haulover for breakfast lol
Your mission if you choose to accept it is.... Beat 16 foot Boston Whaler man.
Make sure your life insurance and will are in order first.
Red Top Legend would be proud.
this type of boat has been around for over 30 years. they are incredible. much stronger than you might think, lighter than glass and will not only float but repairs are simply a case of hot air gun and a bit of plastic.... no need for any wood other than a nice transom board you can simply slot in and replace whenever you want.. brilliant idea and can be made from scrap plastic,,, no more rotten fibreglass , this stuff is simple to re-use...... if you think they are weak then try bashing them with a hammer. then youl get a shock how tuff they are.... 4 metre is the good size, lets you chuck a 70hp on the back
When the 3m Polycraft was released the Australian Army dropped them from helicopters onto a football field...they bounced...hope you enjoy them.
is there a youtube video of the Drop?
Is there an Australian army 🥸
You really need a damn Rode mic for your channel so we can hear the other people speak.
I'm happy Australia has finally exported that interesting little boat
One of those would make a heck of a good tender for a bigger boat.
Thats actually what they are, tuffy tenders!
I've seen guys fishing offshore in these!
I would go inter Island with that here In Hawaii 🤙🏽😁
Yes. We have done lots of research on these molded plastic boats as a tender and they have so many advantages over a RIB. They seem best impossible to puncture, and have virtually no maintenance on the hull (other than bottom growth), while having more room and stability than a rib.
Great vid Guys, we use the tuffy flat out here in Western Australia, got some very decent vids of it in the rough water, very safe and stable boats. Take care
Opa! What's up, love your videos! Hope to see some more Tuffy footage soon!
these boats are made about 5 miles form where i live in Bundaberg Queensland Australia. if ya like rum we make that to the famous aussie spirit Bundaberg rum.
Yep $3000 for the hull only . You will need to purchase the rest of the equipment separately. So total price will be around $6000 because only the engine will be like $2000 plus trailer ... hell nahhh with $6000 dollars I can buy something bigger with engine included at Craigslist.
For a Yamaha 15hp 4 stroke, closer to $4000. New aluminum trailer around $2000 after tax. Trolling motor $400, decent fish finder $400, batteries $200, you’re over 10 grand for a 10 foot boat. No way.
Nothing says “Florida man” like riding a piece of molded plastic with an outboard on the back out of Haulover.
I wonder how many people were suckered into buying the giant tub toy?
I can see it now. Some moron sanding a hole right through it trying to remove scratches 🤣🤣🤣
Just get drunk and carry a gator with you.
@@llshamelessll I'm in Louisiana if had a dollar for using drunk boat and gators in the same sentence I would be a millionaire
@@ronaldharris6569 LoL .....hold my beer!
I have a tuffy in OZ, you will need to pry it out of my dying hands!
I have a poly boat for my surf boat and I have to say they is no maintenance and they don't sink. I love mine.
* that* is what also you do on car's plastic bumpers and grilles,that used to be black,and they are now grey,baked by the sun;
a light and sweeping touch of heat from a heat gun, brings back the black color like magic;
actually hard to believe for someone who is looking at it being done,they at first ask if that's a trick and you have some sort of new spray gun in your hand, so amazing it is lol
I'm definitely gonna watch haulover
Looking forward to the Haulover trip! Good vid!
I own one of those polys go out in it lots put in bilge pump and a 1/2. “ marine ply floor and carpet great safe boat go out on some rough water but hull over this lve got to see good luck from Australia
I have one with a 15hp mercury on it ,I agree with you great boat, it will eat that haulover while everyone else is to scared to have a go in their big boats, but give the little poly a chance and wait till it gets real rough it will be a walk in the park for it while the big boats wouldn't be game to even attempt it, they are great boats
I have to see that dingy on Hallover I hope hes has life insurance. Those boats would sell good here on the lakes.for under the bridge fishing. That heat restoration was sick!
i have a Jeep with plastic fenders the sanding / heat gun works for a while but over time the sun will bleach it out - the heat gun pulls the oils to the surface but they fade faster over time Looks great now - in a year will look like Grandmas quilt
These people make rain water tanks that still look good after 30yrs in the Australian sun
go to the second hand market if you have only 3 thousand to spend you could get a 5.5m rib with 90hp for the same price as this bathtoy
Meeehhh i would no be a buyer for this, for 5 to 6 k you can get a decent boat with motor aaaand trailer. 👌👌👌👌👌👌
Exactly
There's thousands of different kinds of boats in the world at every price range. People buy polyethylene boats for specific reasons like durability and low maintenance. You can't compare it to other types of hulls or used boats.
If somebody doesn't know anything about boats, or a good mechanic they trust to inspect it and not lie...they will b throwing away 5k
Which boat is that?
You can't get shit for $6000 unless it's well used. There's nothing wrong with buying used but you'd better be damn sure of what you're getting for your money.
Oh, Look! snacks!!! in a green plastic bowl... As Fred laughs in Crocodile.
I've been looking at these boats for a while. Finally they came to the states! I wish the company had more videos of the drifter 4.5..
I’ve really taken a shining to these poly boats. Regardless if it’s it’s polycraft, whaley, ect. But, I live on the lower Columbia River. It can be glass and as soon as the tide snaps, off shore wind picks up and creates 3-5ft white caps with a rippin tide. My next concerned is if those one piece bows can handle a deployed anchor with 60-150ft of line without tearing out. That’s a shit ton of tension.
Pretty soon you have a boat with really super thin plastic after a few repairs. Good thing it won't sink.
that was an interesting and fun review!
thanks!
👍
'Yeah. That's a no from me dawg'
- Randy Jackson
Finally something I can afford 👍👍
$3000 really high price for a chunck of plastic. I maybe pay 1,000 at most. It's plastic.
Why don’t you make one with same quality and features and price it at $1,500 and I’ll buy 20 from you.
@@tamalpias yeah at a grand put me down for 3 of them..
Famous last words going through Haulover..... “Watch this!” I want to seem them for through it on a Weekend with some big rollers!
A few other reviews show that the storage lockers are NOT water tight. I don’t know why they would claim this.
Very nice can't wait to see it on the water
Great demo great boat, glad we can get them here in the states.
Warranty on my springbot was 50 years no leaks and still going
I had the 5.99 Polycraft in centre console with a 175 hp Suzuki 4 stroke on the back, load/unload single handed, tougher than an alloy boat and rides like a ‘glass boat. Saddest day was when I sold her...
Really cool inexpensive fishing boats thanks for the review.
Problem with solid plastic boats, is sun decay. I really doubt these are any different then others.
There's some uv resistant acrylic sprays that could help
I’ve had my polyethylene kayak for like ten+ years lol...as long as you don’t store it in direct sun...you’ll be just fine...who cares if the color fades a lil
Same company make rain tanks still good after 30yrs
@@tishbrett I would definitely get one...but having to get a custom trailer, and after buying the fifteen hp, you can find a decent boat for that price with a a trailer, more length, and hp...tuffys’ are amazing though
These boats are made with a special UV protector that prevents it from fading in the sun.
Logic and Triumph boats were roto- molded and they went away. I like the durability of they boats.
Had a logic 13 ft it was a great boat
Been in Australia for 20 yrs
I had one of these when I was a kid. It was a tug boat yellow and red
Thanks
You gotta post this boat going out of Haulover.
Reminds me of my Dory skiff 🎣🎣🎣
Perfect for little bass ponds.
You should do a walk through of those blue wave boats that are beside the poly craft.
It’s an oversized igloo cooler with a motor on it
🤣🤣🤣
Love a good bot that needs maintenance first time a branch touches it. Hope haulover is safe and flat when that happens
These boats are tuff as only yuppies take out scratch’s and it will eat haulover
$3000 for plastic crazy.
Boats are expensive.
@@ronaldharris6569 just get a Jon boat
make a camouflage version and im in!
We sold a camo version that was at the FLL Boat Show this year,
@@polyboats879 well look 👀 @ that 🙌🏾👌🏾👍🏾
So the boat can be hidden in the woods?
@@sparkeyjones6261 no to sneak up on the fish without being seen ofcoarse!
You never have seen a boat hidden in the woods. Camo works!
I GOTTA SEE THIS IN THE HAULOVER
Not a problem
Go Australia!!! Love the USA.
Alfred. Ken from New York. Your reports are as big as the Empire State Building. 😎
Stay tuned the best stuff is yet to come
Your better off buying a used 16 or 17' boat by the time you add up the motor and trailer ??
Thats what I was thinking. Not enough weight capacity
I’ld buy their 450 in a heartbeat should they come to Ontario. Most versatile boat for Great Lakes and small. There is one thing that puzzles me: Since they claim these boats are virtually indestructible, than why Polycraft offers only 4 year warranty on their hulls? Please, if some one have explanation do share. There is something that prevents Polycraft from being more generous with that warranty. What is it? Something cosmetic or structural. Thank you.
nice but a chunk a of change by the time you rig it out for such a small boat
Thats a bass killer right there
If he had sanded with progressively finer grades down to maybe 1500 - 3000 and then use the heat gun, the repair would likely be invisible. You can still see the repaired areas in the demo.
We do recommend going down to 1000 grit. This was done quick just for the interest of time. But if you do it right, it comes out like brand new.
@@polyboats879 when are you going to name your california dealer?
Looks amazing to get away, run out from cubazuela
These poly boats are indestructible. UA-cam ‘polycraft’ and watch videos where they drop them form cranes and ram them with utes and they simply bounce back.
The ride is butter smooth.
Whats the wall thickness
Haulover will win!
Those boats look nice
where do you put the fuel tank and batteries?
On your lap?
25ltr fuel tank between the back seats and a motor bike battery in the left side compartment , they are great boats, had mine in rough water where the bigger boats dare not go
That's awesome!!!!
Two foot-itis is going to come on faster than covid with this thing.
When will the Haulover video launch?
I got a great 175 pro tracker 2003 for 3k , had it for 6yrs ,,, the cooler I put my beers in is bigger than that boat
Power to weight ratio should be great
Reminds me of bass buster boats
This would make a great duck boat. Fit in the back of a pickup bed?
Haulover doesn’t stand a chance. I’d slap quad yama’s 15 on that bad boy
A single 20 and it wouldn't stand a chance against the 3m polycraft, had a 20horse on it back to a 15hp mercury with a se sport 200 cav plate now and it's way good enough
be really nice to hear what the rep is saying.
Nice.👍
You might as well buy a PWC. Faster, more fun and cost will be pretty close to equal. Great for small lakes, but not the ocean.
The small one mostly get used as tenders but the bigger ones go 30-40 nml out to the shelf all the time
I get it, but these are nothing more than a Whaley boat from the Netherlands. They may be well built, but they have a limited capacity and really should only be used in calmer seas if your going to fish from them. The other issue is you have to buy everything (motor included) to be able to get it up and running. With what Sea-Doo is doing with their Fish Pro and others who are modifying their skis as fishing vessels, it just makes more sense to spend a few extra G’s and go that route. At least it would be quicker and your range would be much farther. Maintenance I agree would be lower in the long run, but overall, a real boat or a PWC would be the better option. I looked into the Whaley boat a couple years ago, and I really had to think about what I was going to use it for. If I did get it, would it excite me every time. The answer is no. In the end I just could see me using it as often as a quicker motorized craft. I see value in it, but not for me.
@@lestertunigold403 they are a real boat and will go and do the same as any boat the same size from 15-20ft is you standard offshore rig under15ft is mostly island or river boats and these boat are near indestructible
We sell Whaly boats and Polycraft boats. Both incredible brands. Not every boat is for everyone. People who buy this boat have a specific purpose and use them for fishing their local waters or as tenders for their larger vessels. Can't compare to PWC. Plus have you ever spent 3+ hours on a PWC? Not that comfortable at all.
3000$ for the shell, more 3k$ for the absolut need accessories, double of all that for the engine, and you get to the price of a williams yacht tender lol
If the hardware like rod and reels are name brands and the electronics as the same brand new name brand I might give 3 grands but I'd preferred it to be at least 16ft
Aussie, Aussie, Aussie oy, oy, oy!🇦🇺
My $3000 boat is a 16' Lund with a 40hp motor. This....??? I dunno.
I DO like that it is a sandwich construction. Basically unswampable, but still capsizable.
3,000 for a plastic tub with no motor???
You can buy a 14ft Jon boat, and trailer for less than that. More room, faster, and sturdier.
I thought the plastic tub was going to be 1,199 or similar.
Had 2 jon boats traded in for Polycraft boats in the last week alone. Poly boats are way more stable
They finally made it to the US.
Good Aussie made boats they make them in bigger size too
How about between an 18 and a 22-foot
lindo vídeo
Looks like a Coleman cooler
Those bins need drains! I didn't see any?
I love it
Couldn't you just put some type of stick on skid material to avoid any real kind of damage to the boat's finish like all contact points on the boat itself ?
I'm sure you can put on a rub rail
Mel bch again 🌴 Personally a used Whaler 17 Montauk value wise great ! 🏄
Those are good but not as good as a rib though 😕😅
I wonder if it's rock sea proof
Just bounces off ,leaves a scratch, otherwise just lift your motor and drag it across done it heaps of times in 14yrs of owning mine, piece of cake to unload of the trailer lift the motor push it off the trailer onto it's arse let it hit the ground then drag it down to the water, they are tough
@@lyallfisher9867 nice! the price is decent to. Thanks you! .
Very nice..
Deym thats masculine boat overthere! I hope I can see it soon selling to Asian countries.
THE TITANIC WAS UNSINKABLE ALSO !!!
I want the 410 challenger...
$3000.00 speed bump...
Yikes look at that hull design
Great design, I have had 3 100 kilo blokes stand up on the side of mine out on the water hardly leans over, super stable
Awesome
Looks like a hot tub
Not liking the color but everything else looks good
Good thing they come in 9 different colors
Look into the Whaly 210 it’s only 6 ft but it can fit in a pickup so no need for a trailer and it’s a lot lighter $1500 is half the cost there’s always cheaper options this really isn’t that affordable when you factor in a trailer and a motor nice vid tho they are cool boats scratch it just put a heat gun on it and it’s fixed lol
We sell Whaly boats as well. The 210 is a lot smaller though. 2 different boats completely
simple material to repair .......for ease of use singlehanded I cant think of anything else
I want to buy one,
