UNBELIEVABLE BOAT!!!!!!!!!!!
POWERED WITH A SUZUKI 6HP 4-STROKE
I've fished our local Fishing Piers and Beaches, learning takes time and patience. In 1987 I've rented Skiffs every summer numerous times from Capitola Boat Rentals.

You got to try it sometime this year and you don't have to go that far but 1 mile straight out of the harbor.
Once you've had a taste of driving a boat your gonna be back for more.
This video show a few angles of my Brand New 14' PORTA BOTE in motion. My Porta Bote powered by 6hp Suzuki 4-stroke motor at half throttle .
This Porta Bote first trip out in calm seas 2-3 ' swells and 5-8 knots of wind handle very well.
I also put together a Fish Finder rigged for easy removal using duct seal to keep the transducer secure and functional .
Last I will show you one of my favorite plastics fishing lure I use to catch a variety of rock cod.
JUST ORDERED A KICKER MOTOR FOR EXTRA SLOW SPEEDS

My Review after 20 trips using the Porta Bote ;
After taking my Porta Bote out more than 20 times here is how I feel about it and what I advise.............
I really like the 14'r but note that bote is heavy. Once in the water man its all good to go! Yes I did choose the 6hp for the 14'r , weight and power for me was perfect since it would get me to the spot a lot faster than my kayak or AI would've. At one moment I was regretting not buying the 9.8hp because I could've used it at 3/4 of its power , saving full throttle for glassy condition. The weight on the 9.8hp you'll need to keep in mind (((( weight and balance ))))....
Now about the (((((FLEX))))...........
I HATE THE FLEX , but that's me... Why? I don't like to worry wondering if something might give way.
I took the bote out over 20 times and I got use to the
((( FLEX ))) , it's build strong . That is one of many things you have to trust in Porta Bote vessel. Just remember this bote folds and you should never compare it to a standard boat. Take it slow and always inspect your bote
((( BEFORE AND AFTER ))) every trip.
Advice using a 14'r Porta Bote powered with a Suzuki 6hp,
#1 adjust the tilt on the motor so the shaft does not touch the transom during the run.
#2 tighten the rotating feature so the motor does not have any play / you don't want to loose control because this bote has flex everywhere you look.
#3 Go at a safe speed threw swells and choppy condition.
#4 Buy a deep cycle battery and electric trolling motor for back up in case your main motor fails on the water.
#5 If your out in open water / ocean bring a GPS , VHF Radio , Life Jacket / PFD , Whistle , and a couple of swimming pool blow up raft just in case you have to abandon ship. These are all the Items and rule I go by with all my vessels.
Be safe and have a hell of a adventure Captain !
Thumbs up to returning home safe and sound : )
