Are you ready for a turn-key all-electric bass boat? Do you have $32,500 to pay for it? If so, you can pre-order the Pure Watercraft Tracker Pro Team 175 TXW. While I think there is a market for all-electric bass boats, I just can’t see someone forking over 30k plus for a tracker boat. What is Pure Watercraft thinking? I don’t think they know anything about the average Tin Boat owner or what they need and want. The price point is just too high in my opinion. If you want to do some research on this boat, check out the Pure Watercraft Tracker Pro team link here. The boat equipped with two batteries will have a top speed of 24 mph and you will get about 20 miles before needing a 5-hour recharge unless you have 240V which will just require 90 minutes. These are things you need to think about before going down this path. It’s sort of like buying a Tesla.
Is the Pure Watercraft Tracker Pro Team 175 TXW going to be a winner? I don’t know, I don’t see many people forking over that much coin for an all-electric bass boat. Most will stick with modding their jon boats and sticking with what is currently out there for electric propulsion.
Like everything new, it has to be tinkered with, let them come up with better batteries again and you may have a winner. The cost is too expensive but over time it will come down, there’s no doubt that govt’s around the developed world are pushing this tech. so you’d better sit tight, it’s coming, like it or not.
