plastic Boats

I managed to purchase a couple of plastic boats. A pelican Bass Raider 10E and a Sun Dolphin Jon Boat. The Pelican Bass Raider has a two pontton design and is equipped with fore and aft motor mounts. Two adjustable swivelling seats and lots of molded in hold alls. The boat is designed to fish and you can all day in comfort. easy to cartop and secure, just make sure not to leave it on top on a rainy day as it will fill with water and test your car roof.

i mounted a Coleman 2.6hp outboard to the boat waiting for time on the water. The 12foot Sun Dolphin Jon Boat is a Monohull with long deep strakes on it's hull both for better tracking and stiffness. Topside its floor has a herringbone design. The space between the hull and cap provides floatation. at the rear are two drainplugs, one to drain the cavity under the deck and the bigger one drains the deck. there are molded in slots which act as rodholders, there are also oarlocks molded in. it's width makes it an easy cartop fitting securely on standard crossbars. there's a bow eye for you to tie on a restraint to keep the boat from leaving you when braking. At the rear,you can take off the drain plug and run a line through that hole. again, it's another boat waiting for the water...

Cartopping is still the best way to get on the water in the Philippines and hopefully, it catches on with the ever expanding angler base here.
