[QUOTE="Fishin'Fool, post: 233929, member: 4504"] I own a Pelican Bass Raider 10e. I only have about $1,000 into the whole rig. Thats including trolling motor, battery, fish finder, and other misc items. I dont have an outboard on it yet, but i am working up to that. My buddy and I can stand on one side of the boat, and will not even come close to tipping. on the other hand, he also owns a 10.5 ft flat, and i am scared to stand up in it. I think the Bass Raider (or any other mini-pontoon) is much better than a small flat boat because of the pontoon style hull. My whole rig probably weigs, 500 pounds, and i can float in 4-6 inches or water, easily. It weighs less than a flat boat, has built in flotation, comes with built in wiring for fishfinder or trolling motor, and can hold just as big of motor as a flat boat can. Heres a link to my thread if you want to take a look, and get some ideas: https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=16837 Thanks, Fishin'Fool [/QUOTE]
