Is your boat modified? And was it by you? Have you added a casting deck, accessories, optional seating etc. or is it still exactly how it was when you first got it?

It has been almost two years since I put the absolute cheapest trolling motor I could find to the test. With gear prices getting crazier by the day, I still get asked all the time if these budget options actually hold up over the long haul or if they're just a waste of money.

For all of you who have found or joined the channel recently, here is the honest truth on how it performed and whether it's actually worth your hard-earned cash.

Drop a comment and let me know: What's the best "cheap" piece of boating gear you've ever bought?

Waaaaay back in the summer of 2024, I was chatting with the guys at Tiny Boat Nation about my wooden skiff build about how to do the floor. I was considering adding sand to paint and other budget flooring options from Amazon. They asked me if I had ever tried Hydro-Turf and making a floor worthy of my project.
We came up with this design and it turned out amazing. Now 18 months later it still looks like new, and is awesome to walk on. It cleans up nicely and hasn't curled, peeled or worn out.
If you would love to add your boat's name, your brand, or a custom design to the floor of your boat - AND have a really high quality floor surface that is comfortable and durable, talk to the guys at Tiny Boat Nation. And you don't have to tell them I sent you, or try to use my 5% discount code - because what matters most to me is that you get a cool floor for your boat like I have in mine!

As some of us start messing with electric outboards, third party batteries, and electrical connections, doing it right requires expanding our knowledge. If you've ever made your own cables, or plan to, this video from Will Prowse is worth watching!
