Hi there,
Anyone had any problems setting Home and Spots via the remote? If I hold down CH to set Home, nothing happens other than a bleep from the remote and two from the boat with the light not indicating that Home is set on the remote, same goes for Spots, I get one bleep from the remote and three this time from the boat. GPS is blinking blue.
Tried resetting Home and Spots on the remote by holding down A and B, still nothing???
Is there a hard reset on these thing with like some funky button presses. I'm all out of ideas here.
Any help would be greatly appreciated 👍

Thank you Rich, you're a star ⭐
I have spoken to ND and they think it's a dodgy r note that they're going to replace 👍

Good question.
It all depends on what you're doing really. As a cheap boat that does everything you want it to, I'd say yes. I'm on a big pit that gets some wild weather, it's handled everything that's been thrown at it like the storm we had over the weekend. Said this a lot of times on here: I've regularly had the boat to 400+yds with no drop in the boats signal/loss. I do have boosters, those are just for the sonar, not the boat. It's been thoroughly tested and has done surprisingly well.
The only downside - could just be on my boat - is the design of the hoppers when you use particles. Small stuff like hemp can get caught occasionally in the door/hinge assembly if I forget to flush it out. I've had a look at one of the guys RT4 and it's a much better design, even though the RT4 looks like it has the same hopper, just that the RT4 has them under the boat and not like the ND's inside of the boat kinda...if there makes any sense? Maples and bigger has never been a problem.
I've added a Raymarine Dragonfly which I installed myself. If you add it all up, it totts up (Inc ND app) to around 1.2k, the RT4 can be got hold of for 1.8k. the reason I mention the RT4 is I believe they're comparable with the same sonar setup, just that the ND is smaller and that Carplounge's app is far better and more matured.

I just bought the bait boat, and I'm having the same problems as you described.
Should the boat go back for repair or is there a simple solution?

Thanks for this, ive been looking at boats and always get drawn back to the ND2. Just looks really well designed and bang on for the money. Yeah makes sense with the door description. cheers.

Are you just using the handset or are you using it in conjunction with the app but not payed for the app?
Long story.short, I was expecting the app to do things which I had to pay for.
Long press the CH button and that sets Home
Drive your boat out to where you want to fish
When you reach your spot, press CH and scroll through which of the 4 buttons A/B/C/D you want that spot to be, press EN to confirm the spot. Press H to bring the boat back to Home position. Load up rig and bait, press the pre selected spot and off the boat goes
See if any of that helps 👍

Definitely, for the money, it really is a good boat. I do think that if they would have made it the same size as the RT4, they really would have hit it out the park. Something simple like having two batteries, one for the boat and the other for a sonar. I do think they missed a trick on the count.
If you do get one, get the speed kit as it does make a difference 😁

I was using it with handset and app, but my GPS keeps flashing dark blue, and no “boat” icon appears on the app. I can turn off and on the light, open the hoppers, see CPU temperature and level of the boat battery, and that's all.
Had a long messenger conversation with ND tackle, and was told the boat wouldn't show due invalid autopilot, so I bought the autopilot, believing everything would be fine, but all I got was a boat beeping and a handset beeping, the blue light was turned white... and so will it continue until I turn it off,
So was hopeful when I read your post, and could it just be a faulty handset...
Right now, it seem I have to send my boat back to Germany...

Hmm
Okay, first off, make sure you're in a good area to get a proper GPS fix, the boat will bleep endlessly if it can't get it's GPS location.
Have you re registered the app and boat again? I've found with each new version of the app the old settings get over written. If that fails, re register the handset to the boat, then turn the app on, then re register the app to the boat like you did when you first payed for the app. Give all that a try and see if that helps.
Something to keep in mind, make sure you have auto updates turned off. Only learnt this the hard way and the new version overwrote all my saved spots. If you've got a spare device, always, always use that before installing any new version of ND's boat app so you can see what the new version does and what they may have cocked up.
Hopefully Martin we can get your boat going 👍
