Guys, just to consult. Two things I'm concerned with inflatable boats.

(1) How tough is the Sevylor boat? Had any punctures before? Off course, not expect it to be hook proof but like sliding down from bank to water or cross snags & underwater logs, any issues?

(2) Does it get hot during the afternoon? I mean so hot until backside also not comfortable sitting on it. I see on net, some people modify themselves a wooden sitting platform on top of the boat. Assuming it gets hot under the sun.

Regards,
Hennesy

1)my fren’s boat had a puncture b4 but due to fishing hook. it is now patched back. the only thing that will puncture the boat is hooks n maybe shark rocks.

2)if it gets too hot just splash some water on the hot part n it will instantly cool down.

my diy motor mount.not cut at the exact length yet..just copy the actual design sevylor motor mount..

not yet install on my sevylor..waiting for thruster..huhuhuhu

30

not bad khyrull,

U make it yourself?
The rod seems attached to the front of the boat if im not mistaken.
But normally i see from those from ebay, it attached to the rear portion of the boat.

32

33

34

===I love fishing. You put that line in the water and you don’t know what’s on the other end. Your imagination is under there.===

35

you can try at tasik puchong prima..nor so far from sri kembangan

36

If i got thruster, sure i will give it a try at Prima
Prima pond is huge, if by manual paddle i think i’ll be exhausted

not really la..this boat is lighter than fiber boat..so the distance is greater when you paddled. no need to cover the whole lake for the trial..just enough to familiar with the handling..

ugly stik bro,

i got a guy to custom made the mount for me. it cost me rm270 for that mount. if ufl have got stock of the mnount it is better to get from them. they’re selling it for rm360 i think but they don’t have stock at the moment. i’m using motor guide’s varimax 45lbs thruster.

hennesy bro,

get it man, its really good cos u can carry it around inside a normal sedan car n u don’t need big space to store it when u’re not using it.

Wild boar,
Where did you customed the mount? and how much did your Varimax motor guide cozt?

ben,

the mount can be done at any welding shop. just that u need to leave your boat there for them to do measurements.
my 45lbs varimax cost me rm880. now no more 45lbs, only 55lbs available for rm980.
