When a company and its employees put their hearts and soul into something they REALLY believe in and KNOW what their vision is as well as the customers ...This is what you get. BEAUTIFUL work guys !!! I,ve work the water most of my life so i KNOW what im talking about and so does Woodridge Boats. What GREAT craftsmanship !!! I wish you much success . You deserve it ...Outstanding !!!
I've been offshore fishing for 40 years. Now I don't know where this is made for, put in Freeport Texas it gets super hot offshore. All of that black and diamond plate while beautiful, could be uncomfortably hot. That was my first thought. And then I realized what the owner of this boat made this boat for. Everything about it screams overnight tuna trip. We do a lot of that here too. And it would be one awesome overnight boat. And it looks like all of the extras are rigged up towards that. That explains the recharging box for the glowing artis, etc. It also explains having a kicker on a boat that already has twins on it. It serves as a trolling motor offshore to hold the school. Extremely nice craftsmanship. I wouldn't want to do day trips on it here, although I'm sure that cabin is air conditioned for a break-in at every once in awhile.
@@WooldridgeBoats it is a beautiful boat and appears to be very well made. I sure wouldn't be scared from a safety aspect in it. You guys really did your homework on that one. I don't know if you've made many for this area, or if you're too backlogged to even think about much expansion, but there's a hell of a market down here and I think most of these guys would love the way those are made.
I agree with a lot of the comments. I had a Grady White 306 Bimini 30’ center console. I fished out of Cape Hatteras NC. Grady White best fit my wants and needs. It was well built and most of all the hull was a matt finish “tan” color, matt finished aluminum. Easy on the eyes on bright sunny days. Didn’t waist money on down riggers. Simple planners on 50-80 class rods did a fantastic job. Gloss black, diamond plate, etc.. that boat belongs in the show ring not in the water. Money can’t buy experience
OMG! When you said this boat had lots of extra features you weren't kidding. Fantastic build. Another excellent video review Grant. Thumbs up from your northern neighbor.
The Guy On The Minibike Where does your family hail from for the last few generations? We could be related? On my mom's side (Unser) it turns out I'm related to all the Pike's Peak and Indy Champs. My Dad's side is Alberta and before that England.
I agree with Rog Rambo...I'm a little closer than he,in northern California,but the same problem is we don't have any of those down here. If we did,I know they would sell like hot cakes.I would love to be able to see and touch one. I've looked at all the other boats that I can.I have yet to get on a Wooldridge. Awesome boat!
Grant, is it? Excellent boat, and, really, and excellent video! You are a natural. Very thorough, well spoken, concise. It’s so interesting to watch different approaches to different needs. Been watching a lot of Grady White, Stamas, Tiara sea trials, and this was a pretty sweet changeup. Best wishes to you and your business.
Forget about all the negative comments, those people are idiots if they can't appreciate a sweet boat like this. If you keep building boats of this quality you will be in business a long time, keep up the good work 👍
one hell of a boat, that's for sure. I really like the joystick control system. I would opt for larger engines personally, but that's just me. twin 250s is plenty of power.
This type of boat is my dream boat. This one and a Outer Reef 720 DBMY. Gorgeous boat. Plus I have a vacation house on Marrowstone Island which is to the west of Whidbey and to the south of Port Townsend.
My wife is always making fun of how many different sized rod and reel combos I have.... Always spooled and ready to go... I think I have 20 or 22??? I actually think this boat has a SUFFICIENT number of rod holders!!!!! ;-) LMAO GREAT boat
"Lights up like a UFO" lol, needs more refrigeration, like a small fridge on the cockpit, but this guy is all about the fish comforts are not his primary goal its an awesome awesome boat!
South of I-90 is a class Delta airspace and drones are not allowed without authorization. Hopefully you got authorization … or I’m just confused on the location. Seaplanes land all over the lake though and sadly a-lot of the pilots don’t check dronetams but at least you can say you filed one if an incident does occur. Sweet boat !
Great work! I´m not easy to to be impressed.... but damn... This boat... Awesome! For sure! A really impressive fishing boat! Would like to own one of these. Greetz from Germany.
Maybe 8-12 seconds apart, i live way out in the pacific islands (Saipan, Northern Mariana Island) along side of the Mariana Trench which the current and waves are unpredictable. We could have smooth waters then could be a very big change in current and waves.
all that diamond plate in the back is going to be hell on a sunny day. I got rid of my as you are going to feel the skin peel off your body while you fish.
jeff scott not really, my steel diamond plate tool box is the coolest thing on my truck on a sunny day, it but reflects the heat. the cabin might be a little warmer then a white boat though. and I was thinking the diamond plate would get more slippery then textured fiberglass.
I’d like to see wider access from sides of the boat going from the rear deck to the bow . Most pilot houses has more space on the sides protected with rails
Can't stop daydreaming about chasing snapper and some bluefin with this beauty...definitely considering the lotto...oh imnot sure if its legal to tow that in Australia though🤷♀️
One more thing, have the light bars with two stage lights, white for lots of light and red protecting your night vision if your working the boat at night offshore.
There has to be a more elegant option for the rear trolling motor throttle . . . . a way to transfer trolling motor control to one of the main engine controls, for example . . . .
That goalwing door? sorry if I misspelled it but that's very cool and necessary considering you cant access from the sides, This is a great piece of work , I do wonder why they didn't blue the inside of the live wells or is that just bs ?
Are you guys willing to give a price range for something like this? I'm new to the industry, and I know every penny is worth it here. The main engines are about $54k, so it won't be a shock to get an idea. I realize custom work is really variable, just maybe a baseline price point for the vessel and typical powerplant for an idea, if you feel comfortable? Awesome, awesome rig. Quality that stands out, even for a novice. Nicely done guys.
I wonder if they can throw an air conditioning system into one of these. I'd love one, good alternative to a little cabin for me. Hell im a truck driver and don't have a home so I figure if I can stay in one of these on a lake or the ocean for a week and just have a fishing blowout it would be fun but I'd be all over in Texas and other places so I'd love to see an AC unit if they could do one.
Very good presentation She looks like a solid nice boat The guy he speakslike a shellback port,starboard stern not like other vid when they: park the boat!!!!!!!!!!! I would like some more minutes of this vd to see her in the open sea in the ocean anyway i realy enjoy it Many thanks for the uploading By the way two questions :1.How many outboards can she handling and how much is the max BHP ?2.How much is the cost of this beauty :??
No realy she looks like ''strong'' boat..You know i was in Chemical tankers since i was an apprentice until i become a Captain i have been all over and i can tell you most of the American boats are boats for open sea!!!!!
Pretty boat ive actually. Watched this video a couple of times the owner obviously built her. With plenty of boat experience and with a purpose it shoes alloy about a builder that would accommodate whatever their customers needs I always get a kick at boat salesmen they point out the beverage holders but only use terms like Ashly Beverages the last new one i bought i finally yelled at the salesman its Beet and Rum and Cokes on my vessels
Why do you use a kicker up north? We troll in the south as much and as far as anyone sometimes never anchor and use the big motors to hold position off oil rigs the motors run all day. we just use the big motors especially when there’s twins. I don’t understand why a kicker when you have twins you can use a single for trolling.
@@WooldridgeBoats " often times has to do with which service center is in their area. "....brilliant point, actually. I've been to your factory before - cool place.
Nice boat, but if your gonna fish tuna it's all about keeping them cool. A black boat draws heat more than a white boat does, so my opinion would be go with the same boat but in white. More money for a cool tuna. That's why you drag the tuna behind the boat when you catch it. Its blood pressure goes up and harms the meat so that's why you need to keep it cool even with ice is not enough to keep tuna cool.
This sales person is the best I've seen, he also adds details that you would check on any boat his or not
If I had the money... I would totally buy it. Haven't seen any fishing boats that are as cool as this one.
When a company and its employees put their hearts and soul into something they REALLY believe in and KNOW what their vision is as well as the customers ...This is what you get. BEAUTIFUL work guys !!! I,ve work the water most of my life so i KNOW what im talking about and so does Woodridge Boats. What GREAT craftsmanship !!! I wish you much success . You deserve it ...Outstanding !!!
this is one of the nicest boats i've ever seen! The boat literally goes up so high it literally doesn't need to bounce up and down! Impressive!
The attention tot detail is amazing on this boat!

I thought the same thing. There is a reason 99% of the boats where i live are white... Lol
Beautiful job. You and your company should be very proud.
Congratulations on coordinating so many systems to an end user friendly conclusion.
What a wonderful, opulent vessel.
"Lit up like a U.F.O." Lol this sales dude gots the confidence & humor. Sick as boat 🛥🐟
Pretty sure that "Sales Dude" is the VP of Wooldridge Boats ;)
A man who takes pride in what he builds,,,,as he should,,,,,
Beautiful boat,,,,,
Why y’all all gotta hate it’s not his boat he’s review what someone wanted them to make it’s not my favorite look either but I would still love that

im parked right next to this in that marina and it popped up in my side videos. its absolutely amazing
Incredible Boat!
wicked sick. all business with attitude. they need more boats like this on the east coast
been around boats all my life. That is a kickass design and lots of thought went into that baby!!!
impressive craftsmanship! I was really impressed by the way the boat appears to ride on the pad even on one engine.
OMG! When you said this boat had lots of extra features you weren't kidding. Fantastic build.

Only thing that comes to mind...Stunning!
I'm absolutely stunned oh my word
War machine of a boat. Nice work!
Awesome boat! My only critique would be the diamond-plate floor and all around in the fishing area in back. Looks like sun-glare city to me.
WOW,,all I can say is WOW!!!! What a BEAUTIFUL boat!!
Great presentation, great boat, thinking of weekend offshore (Naples or Keys) or even a weekend on Superior.
Reminds me of my family's old 22' C'dory, except this thing is an absolute *beast* !
This was very entertaining!! Had the whole family watching that time!!
An awesome boat this one!!
I don't fish so eliminate all the fishing crap and I would take that boat in a heartbeat it's beautiful very well done and I love the engines wow
Wow, Grant! WHAT a machine! You and Pops sure know how to makes 'em!Paul of former O.E. fame........
one hell of a boat, that's for sure. I really like the joystick control system. I would opt for larger engines personally, but that's just me. twin 250s is plenty of power.

Would love to fish off this boat, thing of beauty!
Awesome boat. A really cool weekend fun machine. Love it!
It looks bulletproof love it.
"Lights up like a UFO" lol, needs more refrigeration, like a small fridge on the cockpit, but this guy is all about the fish comforts are not his primary goal its an awesome awesome boat!
Nice bot.i am Abu mujahiddin from Malaysia.nice to met you.
Excellent video. This guy obviously did his homework for this review
he built it
This boat is the best!!!!!!!
Very nice fishing boat. Excellent space management.
Thank you for great review. Looking for fishing boat for freshwater/great lakes with rocky shores.
South of I-90 is a class Delta airspace and drones are not allowed without authorization. Hopefully you got authorization … or I’m just confused on the location. Seaplanes land all over the lake though and sadly a-lot of the pilots don’t check dronetams but at least you can say you filed one if an incident does occur.
Sweet boat !
Amazing job as always, keep up the great work until I'm ready for mine.
What a beautiful boat. Very well thought out. I love lights too and would have done the same as this owner did with all the LED lighting.
that is a SICK boat!!! I wanna get me one of them bad boys!!
That is a great layout and equipped boat , would love to salmon fish with that on Lake Ontario
I love how the engine covers look.
This is my dream fishing boat..this is awesome..
to be honest it is not a beauty, but for sure as hell one practical fishingboat or workboat. i really like it.
I was shooting blanks by 10:00 . what an absolute masterpiece.
Lmao
Would love to see a night shot with all the lights on!
Great video... wicked job on the boat.. Top speed?
Awesome floating mancave, I want one
Very impressive boat, would be great fun out on the water.
Great work!
I´m not easy to to be impressed.... but damn... This boat... Awesome! For sure!
A really impressive fishing boat! Would like to own one of these.

Amazing boat. I suspect that diamond plate will be brutal on the eyes...but Im out east not west...maybe cloud cover helps.
Yes it can be when brand new. We also do herculiner anti-skid coatings over the floor if wanted.
WoW that boat 🚤 looks like a built proof build 👍🏻
all that diamond plate in the back is going to be hell on a sunny day. I got rid of my as you are going to feel the skin peel off your body while you fish.
jeff scott Absolutely!

and I was thinking the diamond plate would get more slippery then textured fiberglass.
jeff scott must not have heard he said self cooling diamond plate floor
jeff scott exactly. Who picks black? Nice and cool.
In Alaska? Your probably hoping to catch some extra heat!
Stop making these videos because ,Im jealous that ill never get one . J/K you guys make some dream boats there. Keep up the great work !
Damn nice boat you guys put out...thank you for sharing. Take care
You really took your time and made this review quality!
I’d like to see wider access from sides of the boat going from the rear deck to the bow . Most pilot houses has more space on the sides protected with rails
Can't stop daydreaming about chasing snapper and some bluefin with this beauty...definitely considering the lotto...oh imnot sure if its legal to tow that in Australia though🤷♀️
the UV charging station is an amazing idea!
Badass boat, love it, a nice way to get away😎
What an amazing boat!
I agree with Jeff Scott. Standing in the back of this boat would put you exactly in the focal point of frying an egg!
I think in the seattle area it wouldnt be an issue. Cold pacific waters and coolish summer days.
One more thing, have the light bars with two stage lights, white for lots of light and red protecting your night vision if your working the boat at night offshore.
I can't imagine how hot those black surfaces will get on a sunny day tuna fishing....
There has to be a more elegant option for the rear trolling motor throttle . . . . a way to transfer trolling motor control to one of the main engine controls, for example . . . .
No one can deny this is a beautiful boat and well equipped. What do you figure the fish caught on this boat cost per pound?
I don't know much about boats but the first thing I thought about that gulping door in the from was rifle rack.
Uv charge light really good idea
That goalwing door? sorry if I misspelled it but that's very cool and necessary considering you cant access from the sides, This is a great piece of work , I do wonder why they didn't blue the inside of the live wells or is that just bs ?

and of course Evinrude's best motor on the market right now hands down
Looks impressive on a milk pond, But what on the ocean with white caps ?.
Any videos OFF SHORE? would love to see this in 4-6 foot rollers
Beautiful boat. Not sure I would go with Evinrude.Why would you spend this much money and not run Mercury outboards.
A couple of my friends run Mercury and they seem to be reliable. Thanks for the response.
In south Texas all I ever see are mercs and evinrudes, busted at the dock. Never had to turn the key on the Yamaha more than once.
@@WooldridgeBoats " often times has to do with which service center is in their area. "....brilliant point, actually. I've been to your factory before - cool place.

Do any of the Wooldridge boats have a self-bailing deck?
What's a guess on the towing weight of all that on the Boat, Motors and a Triple axle Trailer total??
Your info said, fuel pump, so I take it this is a gas powered,
For the size of this boat, it can't be battery operated ? ?
At 14.0 . Going to hang a portable hot water heater. Why would he want to heat hot water? Is he making steam?
So I assume these boats are only for cold weather
can you have a solid aluminum door vs the transparent
You can dump sewage if you're far enough out at sea? Didn't know that
