Carbon Boatman Actor Plus V2 Pro 60 Satellite Bait Boat

Description

The all new V2 update has arrived for the actor plus bait boat. This particular model being a pro has both GPS and Sonar! So what does V2 mean? The actor plus V2 has a variety of revisions including now being IP67 waterproof rated due to design changes to the lid and the top hull. The rear lights are slightly larger and the sidelights moved rearward a little. Fundamentally the boat still has all the usual features that you can see below that the original actor plus has. The major change is with GPS system and remote. This means you can now get up to 60 satellites on your remote which means increased GPS accuracy. Accuracy is quoted to be within 1m but is often far closer than that. With the new 60 satellite GPS you get 16 stored locations plus home point so you can sail the boat to a stored location, drop your rig/bait and return back to the stored home point all with 2 button presses and then you can forget about the remote until you need to sail the boat to the edge to retrieve. This will allow you to hold the rod, sink the line, set the bobbins etc. The other huge perk is that these use the Vulcan style single handed remote which is also entirely waterproof and will actually float if it falls into the water.

These come with the new and improved sonar. The V2 Actor plus exclusively features a different sonar system compared to all of our other sonar models. It is now dual frequency. You can switch between these frequencies to adjust the detection angle. The sonar will reach up to 300m of range and the sonar screen is also entirely waterproof to match the boat and the remote. The boatman sonar is incredibly accurate and is comparable to a deeper for example. The nice thing with these is it had its own independent screen that attaches to the top of the remote keeping nice and compact and means you do not have to rely on apps, signal boosters etc. The screen as well as displaying the actual reading below will also display depth and water temp. You can adjust these between ft and metres, and degrees centigrade and Fahrenheit. The boatman sonar has a depth range of 2.5ft - 100ft. There is a fish finder feature however for this to be accurate a minimum water depth of 8-9ft is required. In our opinion sonar is to find features and not fish, And this is where our sonar is incredibly beneficial. Being able to find drop offs, areas without weed, gravel bars etc can really make a huge difference. Another thing to note is what you see on your sonar screen is live data, And what we mean by that is when you are towing a deeper for example, the boat is actually not where you are reading below and this can easily be mistaken so if you see a narrow window of opportunity it is actually possible to drop you bait or rig in the wrong place. With our sonar being actually attached and part of the boat, what you see on the sonar is directly below the boat.

Having a combination of both Sonar and GPS is incredible. You can sail the boat around finding features, points of interest and save them on the GPS remote to return back to. Once you have found spots you want to bait up or actually fish you can actually just turn the sonar off all together.
