Sou apaixonado por esses modelos de barcos, é um grande avanço no mundo náutico. Gostaria muito de ter a oportunidade de possuir um desses um dia.

Lets name the shady salesman tricks used in this video:
1) boat for sale under the false pretenses of “teaching you something”
2) put an inferior product visible for comparison to make the target more appealing
3) time pressure, “limited time sale of prior years inventory”
4) points out a couple of boat features without explaining the downsides, ie. Hull will need repainting every two years. Also, this hull design is slower and less efficient.
5) several misnomers about buoyancy and boat design characteristics are mentioned here, and he sure likes to try to use fancy boat terminology to impress the buyer
6) excessive talking and avoiding showing the key parts of the boat, for example the cockpit area and aboard the boat on the bow and stern

Let me give you some advice bud. The customer nowadays just wants honesty. Show us the boat, operate everything on it, take the time to film it on the water extensively putting it through every step of it’s paces and show the features. Show how to untrailer/trailer the boat as well as put it in/out of the water. Give a fair, no haggle price, and do not keep it secret. You’ll have better luck selling your boats. The ‘legacy’ sales techniques are very off putting to current consumers. And don’t give lame excuses for why you can’t or won’t put forth the time and effort to show your boat correctly, without the talking fluff, and on the water also.

So they're comparing an old boat with surface corrosion against a new boat that's been detailed. That's pretty shady if you ask me.

The video is not comparing the condition of each boat. It is simply comparing the benefits & design of each. Thank you for watching our video.

If you go out in "big water" in a 24-foot V-hull single-outboard aluminum OR fiberglass "offshore" boat you're an idiot.

Adding all that extra length, width and weight "improves buoyancy"? Hmm.
Dallas Fields

It sure does. How would that extra space not add buoyancy?

We do not carry that specific brand you are looking for. As far as heavy gauge aluminum boats, we sell Duckworth, Weldcraft & NorthRiver

Both Thunder Jet and Duckworth...owned by Rennaissance Marine THUGS, and the reason for the paint is the auto-body-filler (aka BONDO) that resides under that paint!!! You're paying $30k to $50k more for JUNK than if you bought a Parker (fiberglass) or $10k more than if you bought a Hewes (aluminum)...and I'm here to tell you, I've seen SEVERAL of the 8-wide Duckworth boats that one fat woman leaning over to 'get her fish in' looked like the boat was listing 30-degrees! I've never seen an aluminum 'off-shore' boat list like a Duckworth IN MY LIFE!!! So, sell it for what you want, but Duckworth is 'engineered for maximum mafia profit-taking', not for maritime use!

Only problem with Parker is the wooden stringers. They are popular where i live. Steiger boats are pretty nice.

@Valley Marine Boats Union Gap WA Are there a lot of aluminum "offshore" boats being trailered around on "winter roads" or is that just your standard "explanation" for why a boat "trailered" for the "winter" after being in saltwater all "summer" looks so "flaky" come the following "Spring" when the owner gets a good look at it "high and dry" and the reality of aluminum vs. saltwater becomes most visible? That being aluminum LOSES big-time.
Valley Marine Boats Union Gap WA
Valley Marine Boats Union Gap WA - 5 years ago
Depends on the severity of the damage. If you have pitting from winter roads it is going to be very difficult. If not their are some aluminum cleaners that work pretty good check with your local marine dealer.

These boats wouldn't hold up to the pounding that they would receive here in the North Atlantic, they would be dented from stem to stern !!

I'd have to tell you but an unpainted aluminium boat is easier to maintain than a painted by a long shot.

Thunderjet is the way to go compare Apple apples now definitely aluminum is way easier upkeep and it looks better 20 years versus paint

Not hating, just a statement to give advice, but the fiberglass boats (Nordic Tug, etc) can be heavily damaged in rough swells.
Thomas Nelson

Not even close to correct. The ride has nothing to do with the hull material and EVERYTHING to do with the shape of the hull.
Pacific Northwest

Lol ... thunder jet and duck worth are both renaissance marine group companies. Not competitors. Also ... Renaissance Marine is owned by criminals in the boat industry ... these guys dont give a flying sht about building good boats. Renaissance owens, Duck Worth, kingfisher, thunder jet, Northwest Jet boats and a few other ... stay away from this company. They stitch weld, use cheap labor "non ticketed welders" they use car body fillers "thats really why they paint" the have extremely inferior stringer and structural systems.These boats are known to buckle and dent very easily. These guys pitch lies at 100mph. You cant believe a word they say, Renaissance is a joke in the aluminum boat industry
