Key Features
Single Rear Hopper
The D001 carries bait in a single rear-casting hopper. Simple layout, easy to load, reliable release. The right tool for anglers fishing one rod at a time.
Twin 7.4V 10,000rpm Motors
The Classic series twin motors give steady speed and predictable handling on freshwater lakes and dams. They move the 4.5 kg hull with a full hopper without strain.
500m Control Range
The 2.4GHz remote reaches up to 500 metres in open water, enough working range for most Australian freshwater fishing scenarios.
GPS with 24-Spot Memory
The GPS variant stores up to 24 fishing locations, more than any other Manuowell model at this price. Return to productive spots with precision, session after session.
Auto-Pilot and Low-Power Return
The GPS model holds a set heading automatically and returns home on its own when the battery gets low, so you never lose the boat to a flat battery.
LED Navigation Lights
Bright LEDs front and rear let you track the D001 in fading light. Built-in low-power alarm signals when it's time to bring it in.
Foldable Stainless Steel Handle
Folds flat for transport and protects the hull when moving between spots. Stainless construction resists corrosion from freshwater splashing.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the D001 best suited to?
It's Manuowell's entry point into the Classic series. The D001 suits anglers who fish a single rod at a time on lakes, dams, or slow rivers and want a reliable bait boat without paying for flagship features.
How does it compare to the D007?
The D001 is the single-hopper version of the Classic hull. The D007 adds a second hopper and side openings to reduce hook tangles. If you only ever drop one bait at a time, the D001 saves money without giving up handling.
Which configuration should I pick?
The D001 comes with a 10A or 15A battery, and with or without GPS. Use the configurator on the product page. Most first-time buyers go for the 10A with GPS.
How many fishing spots does the GPS model store?
The GPS variant stores up to 24 fishing locations, more than any other Manuowell model at this price point. Return to productive spots with precision, session after session.
How powerful are the motors?
The D001 runs twin 7.4v 10000rpm motors, capable of moving the 4.5 kg hull with a full hopper on calm water without strain.
Will it work in saltwater?
No, the D001 is built for freshwater lakes, dams, and slower rivers. For surf or ocean work, the Joysway Fishing Surfer is the model to look at.
What about warranty?
Every Baitboats product carries a minimum 6-month manufacturer warranty handled locally in Australia. See /returns for full details.
