I just upgraded from a caper to a new trident 13, yesterday.
I cannot wait to get it wet. Anyone have any experience with this boat and if so would you like to give a quick review?
I ended up with the sunrise color.
good choice I have a Trident 15 ( to large boned for the 13 )and it is the best boat I have had and I have had a few over the years. Best compromise between speed and balance and the rod pod is great. I do not store rods inside but a soft cooler extra tackle boxes etc go in there. Put a pad eye inside the lip of the pod, clip things off and you can pull them to you when you need them. You can also get the Plano tool box at west marine that fits in the first space in the tank well , mount a 3 rod holder on it with 2" spacers to clear the nobs on the side of the tank well and you have instant rod racks.
Another thing I did on mine is take off all the extra deck rigging they have on them to avoid sngging lures. You can also use the last thing that the deck rigging goes thru on the bow and stern as attachment pts for an anchor trolley.
Awesome. Thanks. I have used the pre installed riggings for the anchor trolley. Not exactly sure how to best utilize the rod pod. I was hoping to use it this weekend but not going to happen
Far better it is to dare mighty things to win glorious triumphs even though checkered with failure, than to take ranks with those poor spirits who never enjoy much nor suffer much because they live in the grey twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.
