Bass Tracker Panfish 16 Walkaround

all right I had some suggestions of doing a walk-around of my boat just to show you what the 2011 tracker panfish 16 kind of looks like hopefully the lighting will be good enough to see here on my phone some modifications that I've made to make things easier the fish and boating in it so we'll just start right here in the front it's a stick steer and as you can see I've taken a couple eyes with just a bungee cord and that helps hold it while transporting it keeps your motor from falling to one side of the other when going around curves something else I've added some more little hooks on a bungee cord on top of the rail here for to have you can put rods up there don't have to worry about them falling off when riding since the rail is not very deep added a little boat ruler you can pick up at your local Walmart and back here it's got rod box and it'll hold several rods your light also mounts in there and that is a believing 8-foot see they're seven and a half or eight foot rod box then on the back here I've installed a little anchor pulley thing I'm not sure what they call them but it makes it easier for your anchor to lock you know if you Z on the boat you can pull this let's see that would unlock it like so then when your anchor drops that drops too and locks in place and I just keep my anchor tied right there and my excess rope inside I also installed these guide poles just mount on the bottom as you can see like so you run the wire into the light and it just runs up and helps you got on special on windy days I got the kind with the lights on top and it's going to be red lights on the back amber lights on the front when you're running I've got the 30 horsepower if I four-stroke mercury on there and as far as speed with just me in there on a nice calm day I can get it to go about 28 miles an hour nothing too fast what you don't want to fast with a stick steer anyway it could get a little hairy you got on the other side here another rod box I think this one is shorter though but it still holds an adequate number of rods you got swivel seats very comfy and there storage underneath the seat on that one your live wells here in the middle put another hook catch right here mounted that on there I'll show you the storage under in the seat you can see different ropes movies and whatnot I've installed a hummingbird GPS and fish finder up front here another one of my anchors I keep my net right there I moved from the factory fire extinguisher it was in the floor over there and I took it out and mounted it out of my way here in the corner and it just works a lot better being out of the way because you'll probably never need that box you see down there the black with the wire coming out is my trolling motor plug which let me go around to the other side so I can show you that before I do here's the front anchor pulley so you can actually I've got it rigged to where I can sit in the front and control both anchors without having to get up but you can see that's where my trolling motor goes in and I ran that wire because I changed out the factory foot control for a min Kota 55 pound thrust Traxxas trolling motor and it's a hand control I got it and bought the extendable handle as you can see and it extends up to I believe it's 72 inches so I can be just about anywhere in the boat and still be able to use it here in the front is another storage compartment it's got plenty of storage for your tackle I don't have any of my tackle boxes in there now but it's a tackle and other storage as you need it you get your kill switch over there not sure what else I'll show you the inside the line well here I think it's a 14 gallon 10 or 14 gallon live oil that's plenty adequate it does come with a bucket a minnow bucket I've taken that out but other than that it's just the con that I put in as you can see it's the lighting will do right some rod holders on the side there if you are taking a long trip on the highway you can get those suckers at Walmart and just install them to screws and they hold it better going seventy down the highway but other than that that's oh I did put a spare tire and I'll walk get those at Bass Pro all the stuff you can get at Bass Pro but it's done well the panfish 16 made by by striker this is the 2011 model and with the 30 like I said earlier it'll get you about 28 miles to 20 miles per hour and it does well for panfish or small bodies of water you wouldn't want to take this out on a big body of water the waves it will toss you around I will shape for in the video gas and battery compartment here at your gas tank and it comes with two batteries in battery spots and you've got your pumps back there as well but thanks for a good boat especially at this price point just need something for small water and catching here limit of Brehme crappie so I hope you've enjoyed this if you have liked it please just click the lock button and help me all my YouTube y'all have a wonderful day
