“I wanted a bait boat with GPS for night fishing and getting to a small area in weed, after looking at the website specs and reading the reviews the catch x seemed ideal. It was securely packed and ready for charging and running. The instructions need to be read thoroughly to help when first using and the app is essential. The catch x is easy to control with the one handed joystick ,travels and floats well on the waves that large lakes have, a couple of local members came for a look and were impressed. The 4 hoppers are easy to load and are great for dropping your bait precisely at different locations, which when marked are saved on the app for later use. Battery life is very good too I was able to get used to the controls before putting baits out several times and still had 50% battery left
A feature packed boat,economical but as good as anything twice the price, I would recommend to anyone.

“Tbh...I'm not going to say much..if you want a plug and play,easy controllable, does what it says on the tin..then this is it. An excellent boat, VERY easy to use, with whole lot of extras to explore later (GPS) it's fast, sturdy and well built with excellent after sales team. Genuinely pleased with the boat !”
“Very pleased I purchased the catch X, A lot of boat for not a lot of money compared to other boats out there, Easy to use and fast, No issues in the 6 months of buying it, Great communication with Frank at Ripton always replied quickly to my emails.”
“Overall very pleased with the Catch X. Seems solid and well made. Although I haven't significantly used it yet, I would highlight one criticism, the piece of plastic around the hoppers has sharp edges and restricts the opening to the front hoppers. That being said, this part is easily removed, which I have done. For the price a very good piece of kit. And I would recommend to anyone looking for a feature packed bait boat for a sensible price.”
“I was absolutely blown away by the performance of the boat, handles great, looks very stealthy and battery life is above many rivals on the market. Great piece of equipment and maximises your fishing experience”
