Good boat
I always wanted a boat so when i saw this for 500 bucks i said oh well. It is excellent for what i need. I use a 6hp motor with a 30lb trolling motor up front. Added 2 seats and now it's all good.

Good design, but not perfect
We bought this boat for a small flat water boat for fishing in tight places where we cant take our 17ft center console skiff. I love how quiet it is on the water, how stable it is, how well laid out it is, and how much storage space you have. It’s also much cooler to sit in and touch the inside surfaces than an aluminum jon boat when sitting in the sun. We ran it in a fairly strong current in a small river with a 3hp outboard and it performed as you would expect from a flat bottom boat. It seems very study and durable too. We hit a stump in the river and surprisingly it didn’t even leave a mark on the hull. The major disadvantage, and what I hate, is the seats are too low for someone my size (6’4” and 215lbs) to sit comfortably and mounting seats is a real challenge. There isn’t any wood inside the seat tubs so all you have to mount the seat to is the plastic tub top and I’m not sure thats going to be strong enough to hold a guy my size. There’s also the concern of drilling into the flexible tubs. It’s hard to seal something flexible like plastic so theres the danger of creating a place to funnel water into the hull. If the seat tubs were designed with wood reinforcements to be able to securely mount seats then this would be a 5-star boat all day long. It moves through the water effortlessly and silently, just not very comfortably.

perfect for quick trips!
Bought yesterday and took for a little ride in the canal close to home works perfect for what I need and can't beat the price. Got a 30 lb trolling motor 5 spd and works great with 2 adults! Also shout out to Jessie for going above and beyond to help me out, great experience overall and very helpful employees!

Excellent for setting trot lines
My Brother and I bought this boat last summer. We love it. However we are currently looking for a good option for a seat other than the built in bench, can get quite uncomfortable long hours sitting on the bench. Other than that we love it.

what ever just read the review!
well the price is good , i had the boat sins a year know. lets see , i will say the good thing first then the things i think need improve . well first of all this boat got some space , woow i love the space it have i can now fit a cooler in the back ouh i can fit all my gear at the back no problems, cooler fishing lures and fishing gear + a small continuer with some things in it like light ad list goos on an on , then the factory fishing rood holder one of the best things about it , the handle is helpful. the siting positions is not that bad but you need something to set on it if you stay a long time in the boat. good thing that it coms with to motor mount , the material got some advantage and dis advancing .. it's though but it's hard to stick something on it or to modify . NOW LITS SEE BAD THINGS , no drain plugs so if you ben to some high waters you will have some hard time , the boat is not stabile as i wanted but some foam in the sides fixed it 50% , the sets had no back support :( . i would love to have 3 person in it ,, come on it's a 12 foot , but the thing is when the 3 person set the boat be come front heavy so waves gets in . so i would love to see this thing fixed , amm the max lode you can have in is 190 kg , i had a 8 foot and it got the same max lode !! last ting this thing is heavy so don't think that you can lode it on a car by your self.. do i recommend it? well yes i do but if you only can live with the dis advantage by the way this boat is a good boat to modify be your own ,
EXTRA INFO.
i use this boat with a 2.5 mercury and the fastest i got with 2 person on board is 6 or 7 KM/H
lights are addable if thy work by batteries ( using bicycles lights green and red)
floor is not confortabil to set on so get something to bot behind your back and under you , this way you will stay longer in the sea ,
good way to add to the confortabil level is to install cop holder. (not much work ).
you may need a jet ski trailer to move it essayer.
GO AND HAVE FUN :)

Is this type of boat light enough to be transported via car-mounted rack?
So actually I put the pelican intruder on top of our Honda Odyssey van we drove about 50 miles with it on the roof it’s not fun getting it on and off the roof but it’s possible I would absolutely not do this for any distance longer then 50 miles

What’s the transom height
"It all depends on the weight repartition on the boat.
With a weight of 200lbs centered on the seat of the boat the distance between the top of the transom and the waterline is around 12in (30cm)
If the weight is moved towards the back of the boat, the distance to the waterline will be reduced.
The usable portion of the transom is 3,75in high."
