Kvd's boat-interesting video
KVD under the lid. KVD goes completely through his boat. I found this interesting.

I found it impossible to watch - 5 seconds, pause and load another 5 seconds. I hate vids that do that.

Same here. I seen it on another site where they talked about how KVD is all about BPS line but pulled a spool of Seaguar Tatsu out of that compartment and quickly turned the label away from the camera and tossed it out of view.

Cool video, I had a buffering problem but hit pause then came back later to watch it. Maybe I missed it, but he didn't open the front center compartment did he?
Seeing that makes me realize that I carry too many soft plastics in my boat. And I need to trim down on my hard baits and too. |

When you have a boat, and equipment on it equal to the value of the boat itself that cost as much as some people's house, I'm surprised it doesn't come with armed security guard and junkyard dog.

You know, on the way home from work tonight, I pulled past a Toyota Tundra and Nitro Z-9 with all of the Team Nitro stickers, sponsor logos, and other regalia. It was definitely a pro. I wonder if it was KVD's rig, someone else driving it around, or just a look-alike?
WTH would he be doing in a parking lot in Evansville, IN?

KVD sighting
Quote:
Sat in a seminar with him on the finer points of selling Nitro boats there was only like 10 of us in the room it was awesome he really brought to reason some of the little extras in Nitro boats. That evening we brushed shoulders on the Branson Bell on a charter diner cruise ended up hanging with Rick Clunn and his family for the last half hour while they had trouble docking the Branson Belle chatted with his wife and son got some tips on baitcasters and we gave him a tip about a seating position problem he has been having which I noted at high speed the difficulty of sitting forward in the seat with so much wind preassure on your shoulders. Once in a lifetime chance for me I am a parts guy at a small Tracker dealership and was invited to go by the manager. These guys really do appreciate their sponsor equipment I had the feeling that they really do Fish the Finest! |

I'm sure "he" added the alarm system(just like "he" added the ethernet sytem linking his electronics). I saw some pro, wish I could remember which one, but he doesn't even use a standard trailer, but uses an enclosed trailer, and the kicker is...he keeps two boats in it! There is a built in lift that raises the boats and lowers them into the water.

The ethernet is no big deal, its an AS Interlink from Humminbird that connects any compatible units together in the 700,800,900 & 1100 series depth finders. They can share GPS position, waypoints, and routes between two units in real time. I would think most users with 2 units would have one on their boat if they fish alot of different or very large lakes.

Stacks them like a car trailer, and although the boats looked exactly the same to me, I imagine there was something different, size maybe(?). You know, one thing I find strange about KVD's set-up is that he doesn't have any solar charger, so that he can constantly be charging those oh so important trolling motor batteries???

I have looked into adding an alarm on my boat, with an extra channel that fires a relay to activate bolt type latches on the compartments. That looks like what was on KVD's boat instead of the kit from BPS. That kit is really neat, but expensive. You can buy door lock actuators for $5. Mounting them is the only tricky part. I think most of the two way car alarms offer an extra channel for things like that.
I did have a cheaper alarm, but it died after a good beating out on the lake. I'm really torn between one that requires contact like on KVD's boat, or one similar to Bass Boat Alarm or the automotive Viper alarms. Currently I am using a two way baby monitor plus an infrared motion detector alarm inside the boat. I didn't have the monitor at the time some jackass stole my transom saver. I recently read that somewhere in KY a bunch of boats were broken into outside of a hotel. I guess the parking was not too close, but I'm surprised nobody had an alarm or monitor. I'd sure like to see those kind of thieves caught in the act and dealt with appropriately; before calling the cops of course. I can't imagine coming out of a hotel in the morning to find my compartments all broken open with a pry bar and everything gone. |

I have a 2-way alarm for my boat. It will reach 1000 meters to my remote. Since I will never be parking my boat more than 100 meters from where I park my noggin for the night, breaking into my boat will be a poor vocational choice. I park my firearm 1 meter from my noggin.
The latch actuators seem like a good idea, but only if you have a way of verifying they all actually latched. I would never get to sleep without personally checking them all...useless to me. I will stay with keyed locks.
