Always loved little boats. Nothing to go wrong. If the engine fails bad enough you just slap an new outboard on the next day and worry about the broken one this winter. Being a mechanic I always wanted somthing simple because guess who gets to fix it? Small boats just make sense. Doesnt matter if you make 100k. Year or 30k you can afford to get out there.
Still use my express looking for a reason to move up to a cc fiberglass skiff she’s beats Me up at times w 60 hp tlra yam 30-33 20 years. ? Iam on the fence
I can say the tracker grizzly is a good bidget welded boat. I have a 2002 16fter that ive beat the crap out of on the upper Mississippi fishing and duck hunting. The welds look terrible but none have cracked yet. Ran a '95 25hp evinrude on it till it finally died and have a 30hp etec on it now. Great little boats that can get into pretty skinny backwaters.
I saw Todd standing there in this video and said to myself, "I know this guy". In 2007 we were up in Ely at Deer Ridge Resort and he came to the resort and talked to us about fishing up there and to promote his Guide Service. I went digging thru my old stack of business cards and there it was, "Todd Larson, Basswood Trails Guide Service". Strange what the mind can remember.
Captain Peterson, should read the posted comments. You were asking questions and then answering them and interrupting your guest. You need to improve on your interview skills tremendously. 👎
This guy is the world’s worst interviewer. Asks a question then interrupts him 3 seconds later. Its obvious he has no interest in hearing what others have to say.

“4 more inches makes a big difference” - what she said.
These are the kinds of boats that I love the most! Please keep up the good work guys!
I love my 18 foot Lund with 50hp Honda, but I’m in the Inside Passage and need a bigger boat for when the weather isn’t perfect…..

@ 3:21 - What kind of fish is that?
Paddlefish.
All great boats but prices are inflated and out of control.
Whats your pick on 18' side console with a top boat for the pacific northwest best bang for the buck?
Why ask all these questions but you answer them all yourself and never let the other guy get a word in?
I could hardly hear him 👂
I was just about to say that. Lol
You need to buy a noise cancelling mic if you're going to try and get a message across. Sounds like the charlie brown teacher.
15 grand for a bare bones aluminum hull and this is supposed to be budget...
any of these cut it in a river with lots of other big boat traffic
All of the deep v’s.
So what's the truth about these boats?
You have great videos CaptP but please let the man speak.
Thank you, what time stamps are you talking about?
Couldn't get past the horrible audio! A small investment in mics would do a world of difference 😢
I got new ones.

You would think guys making a video about budget boats would think to include the prices - right? NOPE - making this - uh - completely useless

So where are the solutions? I hear a lot of bitchin 😂
What a shame that your audio is so crappy ! Come on guys, can't you do better?
And u continue the lie
