Porta-Bote Genesis IV Plus a Yamaha 4hp

[@DjHennessy02]

Nice little video. Great job.

I have the much older portabote but same Yamaha motor and electric trolling motor works nice.

[@TheAggie91]

I really like the aluminum plate with the anchor system. Can you share a materials list on how to make one?

[@Justoutstanding]

It’s made from ally box section from the sides of a scrap pickup and is fixed in with stainless steel drop nose pins on to a length of angled ally bolted to both sides. I made a template from cardboard first to get the shape

[@austinforbes4259]

Are those the seats portabote sells on their website?

[@Kitchfox]

What rod holders were those. I'm currently on the hunt for a boat like that but want to work out some details before laying down cash

[@Justoutstanding]

Fladen rod holders

[@DavidAJohnson12345]

wondering how you attached the seats? I have a porta bote and am not looking forward to buying their seats at almost $200 apiece.

[@Justoutstanding]

If you mean the swivel seats? I just bolted the swivel to the original porta bote seats :-)

[@gerardhaubert8210]

What are the aluminum pole-like pieces on the floor

[@mganut37]

The two piece oars.

[@gerardhaubert8210]

Did you have to drill holes for the rod holders?

[@Justoutstanding]

Yes but only above the water line. Thanks

[@gerardhaubert8210]

Do those slotted bench seats come with the boat?

[@Justoutstanding]

Yes thanks

[@ke6bnl]

how fast do you think it goes with the yamaha?

[@Justoutstanding]

Don't know as I don't have a GPS. Thanks
