“Overall a very good boat, quiet, fast and reliable.Great value for money. easy to control and simple enough to work out all the functions. Battery life is excellent in the boat and the controls. the only reason I haven't given 5 stars is that the hoppers are a bit small and narrow, a two-hopper design with the hoppers running the length of the boat would have been ideal. The boat has aided me no end in catching fish giving to its maneuverability into tight spots. A boat I would recommend to others for many reasons including its price as you get a lot of features as you would other boats at a fraction of the cost. Well done Rippton”
“To start with I couldn’t get the hook release to work, always returning with line court not sure how to use to make it work ?
It also crashed twice using the home button ?
It went well though the water and hoppers were good”
“This boat is an absolute breeze to use. The build quality is great and matches, if not betters boats twice or 3 times the price. Used it to help catch my PB.”
“Having finally managed to get out on the bank to finally use the CatchX Bait Boat, I have to say that this is by far one of the easiest boats I have ever used, however before I get into that I would like to share with other anglers my experience of my purchase. The guys at Rippton, have surpassed any customer service I have previously received before, and are fantastic to deal with. My parcel arrived on time and was well packaged with the contents being very well protected. Nothing was missing or damaged. After charging the boat and hand controller, I took the boat to a local lake to calibrate it before finally seeing what it can do. This boat is so easy to control from the off, and the hand controller makes holding a rod whilst steering to the point of destination child's-play. Moving onto the settings, the home point is easy to achieve by following the instructions in the manual, and setting way-points become's easier with a little practise. The batteries in the boat lasted around 2 1/4 hours when in constant use and was a windy day on the lake, however compared to my previous boat being a waverunner it offered around an extra 45 minutes of run time which I was impressed with. For me, this boat is perfect for anyone wanting or looking into a simple, easy and effective way to get both your hook-bait and bait to places beyond reach when casting, and personallywould not hesitate to recommend to other anglers. Thank you Rippton, and look forward to sending some photo's with catches when I next venture out.”
“This boat for the price and just in general is excellent. The remote is simple to use once you have read and understood the manual. I haven’t used it for long at all and this is the only reason I haven’t given it 5 stars.
I will be taking it to Crete lakes in a few weeks and will get to have a good go using it and will review again.
For price, looks and the current use I have put it through I don’t believe there to be a better boat on the market.”
“So i tried the boat out today at a local lake and i was super amazed at how it handled and navigated through the swim. I used the autopilot a few times as I was fishing next to a reed line at about 16 wraps and it dropped it spot on where i wanted it. Super easy for all functions and a very good manual as well!
Many thanks to rippton as well for keeping me fully up to date with my order. 5☆ service and some.”
