Just wondered if anyone has one of these? Seen a lot of videos on YouTube about them and they look fairly decent. Never had a boat before and just getting back into carp fishing so think this might be a good buy for the money.

I have one. Great bit of kit. Battery lasts ages and so easy to use. Sold my bigger / more expensive boat after using the actor

Looks like a good bit of kit from the videos I've watched just wanted peoples opinions who had bought one. Thanks for that 👍🏽

Got the GPS version just before Christmas, my first baitboat but have used a couple of others before.
Love it so far, very compact, light and easy to use. Can definitely recommend 👌

How accurate is the GPS on this bait boat? and how well does it work if the water is choppy?
Thanks

Mine came last week, didn't get the gps just the bog standard thing as this is my first boat. But will be getting a deeper to attach to the back eventually. Was so easy to use with the one handed control and the auto thing while driving it. 5 ⭐️ from me.

Been looking at these, where abouts is the best place to buy them from? Cheers

The only authorised UK seller is Boatman UK.
They are the UK distribution arm of the Chinese maker.
Future Carping are no longer associated with Boatman.
Boatman UK have a Facebook page btw.
Boatman have however authorised a couple of small firms to modify/upgrade Actor boats with alloy propellers/external on/off switches etc.
Actor Bait Boat Propellers and Spares have a Facebook page and an online shop

I have one, it's brilliant for the money! I have the attachment for my deeper, makes things easier, I'll only ever use it when really necessary, but I'm glad I have it

I seen that earlier looks decent tbh if your in the market for a basic boat, when I seen ridgemonkey was doing a boat I was expecting the price to be very high but £500 for a boat is good. Only thing that puts me off is are ridgemonkey branching out to fast? Won't be long till they go into rods and reels lol

They are using a top spec company to do the boat so I would imagine if they did rods they would do the same

Anybody know the best way to remove the void sticker? 🤣
I've just unpacked mine and couldn't help but pull off the no tear label!
Edit: got it off using something out of the wife's make up bag! 🤣
