Very nice video Stephan! I think your boat is very nice and set-up really well. You've done some really nice upgrades on it. You take really good care of it my friend! Tight lines and keep up the great work!!
Very impressive set up with everything you have done. I have done somewhat the same but not to the extent you have. I have the same triton and I noticed the active target box was heating up in the rod locker so I moved mine under the console and it is still completely waterproof and stays cool on those 95+ days on the water. You have done a fantastic job on this project!!
I found a retired guy in his 70's that's got a small home operation.. Many many years of experience. He asked I don't advertise as he's about to fully retire.. He had the boat on site and finished everything in about a week.. $600.. I was wanting to do a full video just about having it done but he's on his way completely out of the business. This cover is literally one of a kind!
I was just about to ask you how you like those li time lithiums. I really looked into those at one point but hesitated. Glad to see you're having success with them
Hi Stephan, looks like your a fellow Texan! What part of the state are you in? I'm up in the DFW metroplex. Really liking that Garmin Force is that the 50inch shaft? Great videos!
So you have been starting your Mercury 4 stroke with the Lithium duel purpose battery? Any issues ? Are you fully confident that your motor will be ok ?
So the previous boat Heritage Classic XL was a 40hp 4 stroke it had no issues with the lithium batterys and the Nitro Z-6 2 stroke 115hp has no issues with the lithium battery. As far as confidence. If something goes wrong, it likely will not be because of the batteries. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍
@@lancelamoon6743 Right on! I hope you enjoy it. For the record I tried to get DD26 to offer a discount code or something for the channel but I guess they don't think it's big enough for them to bother with me.. I contemplated doing a tutorials on how I use it.. and a still may but I was bummed with there lack of response 😔
Thanks! That’s not bad, I got a power house trolling motor and accessories battery, but their cranking battery is 1k. Thanks for the video. Still cant believe how clean that boat is! That was a great deal
@bobhanson9321 As is.. So far with everything I've done is $22k invested in Z-6..Minus what I got for Heritage.. I'm around $10k out of pocket from one to the other..
Not everyone has the ability or talent to modify a boat as you have shown in your previous videos. If you hired someone to do these modifications it would have cost you a fortune. Buying used for talented people is great but if you are a klutz you'd be better off buying new
Dude I would never trailer that boat with that cover. That cover does not look like it's made to be trailering down the road. You're going to have rub marks.
Very nice video Stephan! I think your boat is very nice and set-up really well. You've done some really nice upgrades on it. You take really good care of it my friend! Tight lines and keep up the great work!!
Thanks David!
Stephan, the boat is looking great! Really enjoyed the walk through on it. Awesome setup!
Thanks Carlos! Keep killing it up on Belton man 💪👍 I may be sneaking into your backyard soon!
Very good info, thanks Stephan!
Thanks Darrell!

Thanks Bruce! This has been a true labor of love so far.. Still got a few more things to do on the horizon!
Stephan, good afternoon. The cover turned out great. Tell me where you ordered the cover for the boat. And how much does it cost? Thank you .

You definitely have a very nice set up best of luck this season catch some big ones
Thanks Dave. You too man!

I was just wondering if you use a trolling motor plug or did you direct wire it.
@@randallmiller7082 It's direct wired. Thanks for watching and commenting Randall 👍

Thank you Brandon! Yes.. I'm in Round Rock Texas. Yes, 50in shaft. Thanks for watching and commenting!

How has your live foot been holding up and do you like it.
@@lancelamoon6743 It's still doing great 👍 Thanks for watching and commenting Lance!
@@stephansmithoutdoors good deal just ordered one myself

Who made your custom boat cover?
@@DADDYBIGLUV A guy out in Marble Falls,Texas. He's retired now as far as I know.. One of his last covers.. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍
Does that off-brand make a cranking battery?
Not that I'm aware of.. The Dakota Lithium was the cheapest dual purpose I could find at the time and was like $750ish..
Thanks! That’s not bad, I got a power house trolling motor and accessories battery, but their cranking battery is 1k. Thanks for the video. Still cant believe how clean that boat is! That was a great deal

How did you mount the graph at the console
I have a video on that... Subscribe! TY!

Maybe.. My only "talent" has come from diving right in.. I'd like to think that if I can do it anyone can! 🤔

Thanks for your advice.. but already been doing it. No problems so far.. Idk 🤷♂️ Hard to tell how well it's made on video I guess..
