Configure your boat
The Manuowell V018 is the dual-hopper model within the Blade series, characterised by its sharp design. The dual-hatch design allows for rear bait casting, enabling users to bait two locations simultaneously. Paired with outstanding twin 7.4v high-performance motors, it ensures performance, control, quality, and efficiency.
Key Features
Dual Rear Hoppers
Two rear-casting hatches open independently to drop bait in two different spots on the same run, or carry two different baits for two rods at once.
Twin 7.4V High-Performance Motors
The Blade series twin motors deliver smooth, consistent speed on freshwater lakes, dams, and slower rivers. Quiet enough not to spook fish in calm conditions.
GPS with 3-Spot Memory
The GPS model saves up to 3 fishing locations and returns to them accurately. Auto-pilot and low-power auto-return are standard on the GPS variant.
Battery in 10A or 15A
Choose the runtime that suits your session. The 10A is the all-day workhorse, and the 15A keeps you on the water from dawn to dusk.
Virgin ABS Plastic Hull
The hull is moulded from virgin (not recycled) ABS plastic for consistent wall thickness, good impact resistance, and no hidden voids that can cause premature cracking.
Sharp Blade Series Design
The V018's angular hull reduces drag compared to the rounded Classic hull, giving the twin 7.4V motors more effective range per charge.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the V018 compare to other freshwater models?
The V018 is the dual-hopper Blade series model. Compared to the D001, it adds a second rear hatch so you can drop bait in two spots on the same run, or carry two different baits for two rods. The D007 offers the same dual-drop capability in the Classic rounded hull.
Which variant should I choose?
The V018 is offered with 10A or 15A batteries, and with or without GPS. Use the configurator on the product page. Most anglers go for the 10A with GPS as a balanced choice between session length and price.
How many fishing spots does the GPS model store?
The GPS variant stores 3 fishing locations and returns to them accurately. It also includes auto-pilot and low-power auto-return as standard.
Is it good for night fishing?
Yes. Pair it with a Jarvis Walker double luminous rod bell so you can hear bites in the dark while the boat does the bait runs. The twin 7.4v motors are quiet enough not to spook fish in calm water.
Can I use it on rivers?
Yes, in slow to moderate freshwater rivers, lakes, and dams. The Blade hull is designed for steady inland conditions, not surf or strong tidal flow.
What species do people target with it?
Australian users run the V018 for carp, Murray cod, yellowbelly, and trout in inland waters. The dual-hopper layout suits anglers fishing two rods on the same session.
Is there a warranty?
Yes. Every Baitboats product carries a minimum 6-month manufacturer warranty handled locally in Australia. See /returns for full details.
