Pelican Intruder 12

The Intruder Jon boat is very similar to the Coleman crawdad so i expect the same stability and fun factor. Jon boats are great cartoppers as the flatenned bow bottom doesn't add much height to your vehicle. Same Ram-X material as the Crawdad. This plastic has good UV resistance and isn't prone to getting brittle. Its narrow beam makes it easy to cartop even for smaller vehicles with narrow crossbars. I like the deck design, simple and easy to customize. The transom is stiff and the boat should run well with a 2-3hp outboard. i'll be mounting a 40lb thrust troll motor for the meantime. Be adding onwater impressions once i get her wet.
