I have heard the xboat is slow and could do with better motors .One thing I love about the rt4 tis the speed of it. isn't half helpful when fishing a long way out on big waters makes getting rods out much less effort

This is a company local to me. They have developed a range of different size boats with many features that can be chosen to your personal design and requirements, prices will be according to your spec that you require. A number of local anglers some who are on exclusive venues in Kent use them. It could be well worth a phone call to get some information and prices ! They also service most makes of Bait Boats as well.

Bait boats have never really interested me but just had a quick look on carplounger site. The build options are vast .

I'd say that all depends on what you want.
If your going for the Chirp 4 because of screen size I was advised not too by Daniel as there's little gain for the money.
Think if you'll need 2 bait spirals.
Personally if I were buying again I'd have the Waymarine option but as said personal pref
One of the cheaper boats

I didn't want gps or autopilot so that's why I went with a Lowrance Hook 4x, it's a very good echo without being overly complicated. I think spirals are an edge definitely, also I went with the upgraded boat and echo batteries and hopper covers. The speed of the rt4 even with the slower low noise motors is impressive compared to my old viper! The camo padded luggage is very nice also, and the overall weight of the boat is very light.
Like said I'm pretty impressed.

I think tk made that up to justify what he had blindly said because why would someone who owned a rt4 then buy a xboat it doesnt add up.Just my instant thought as soon as i read it i thought good answer bla blah blah.Now i have answered what most of the rest of you were thinking,Anybody got or seen the raymarine autopilot function or any long term feedback on the carplounge one.I got the toslon 640 and was told 2 years ago on the 1 reply i got the autoplilot function would become available on it as they were working on it and should be available for update in 6 months.I know they brought one out but all posts on this subject are still ignored today they wont even post to say its not going to happen questions are completley ignored

Sorry, that should have said Chirp 5 has little benefit over 4

To be fair the boat itself isn't ott it's the fishfinder that pushes it up.

Because the xboat is a better boat. What in your expert opinion makes the rt4 better.
