- Heres kind of an overview on how we've been liking the thundercat we bought off Alibaba. As a diving boat, is it worth buying one of these on the cheap vs blowing the bank on a South African boat that costs 3x more?
is it fast enough? yes
does it handle? yes
is it durable? yes
is it cheap? yes
is it fun? yes
great for diving? yes

When I was a kid living in Croatia around the Adriatic Sea, my cousin had a similar set up. If I remember correctly he had 70 or 75hp 2 stroke mercury outboard fitted, that thing absolutely ripped. The boat almost spent more time in the air, than it did on water, absolutely ridiculous. We used to go scallop diving together ( more like he ) used to go scallop diving, I was there just for the boat ride. Nice video sir, diving on your own in those waters is not for the faint hearted, stay safe 👍.
ive had 6 people and full of camping gear and my Thundercat planned just fine.
Amazing content! I’m very impressed by your production quality as well.
Would it be possible to fit it in the bed of a truck or does it have to be transported by trailer?
Love your setup!
Hello, do you think a 4 stroke 25hp is suitable for this boat as well?
It would be underpowered. However, they do make a smaller version of this boat with an air floor. It still has the hijacker tubes too. That would be a good pairing. Plus, you could fold it all the way up and haul it without a trailer.

Here is the link to the boat.
But, yes, they have tons of options. You can get them configured pretty much however you want very easily, from 11ft up to 20ft.
They will even make it in orca hypalon if you want. Mine is 1.2mm pvc, instead of the typical .9mm
Custom colors, graphics, floor, even style of transom.
Just make sure to get a 15" short shaft. I kinda screwed up getting a long shaft, and had to weld a riser on. It still does ok.
@@codemang3635 it’s very difficult to find 2 stroke motors here in the USA, can a 4 stroke be used with them.
