Vendor Questions and Answers:

1. Requirement 3-A calls for 21 feet 6 inch minimum. Would SCDNR accept a 21 foot 4 inch vessel (23 feet including attached stern boarding platform)?

Answer: No

2. Requirement 3-C: can you provide any information around pipe routing? Does SCDNR have any layout information of this tank, plumbing, and drain (for layout evaluations)Does this boat require a raw water supply pump system?

Answer Tank is placed in center of vessel, longways from bow to stern. Outlet of tank exists out of bottom of tank near floor and towards stern of the vessel directly to a 3" gate valve then to a rubber coupling connecting to 3" flexible hose that routes around the console to connect to rubber coupling to the 3" PVC pipe that exits through the stern. The 3" PVC pipe that goes through the stern must have at least 2.5" inches of pipe on each side to allow attachment of rubber couplings/fittings and, on the inside of the vessel, have at least 1" of clearance from the floor of the vessel to allow attachment of the coupling.

3. Requirement 3-G: Will SCDNR access alternatives to composite hulls? Unibond construction encapsulations all materials inside the molded hull. Any wood is fully resin sealed before installation.

Answer: No

4. Requirement 3-I: Would SCDNR accept standard cleats (non pop-up)?

Answer: Yes

5. Requirement 3-M: are these U-bolts additional to the standard stern lifting eyes?

Answer: No

6. Requirement 4-A: Can you provide engine and gauge brand that will be used on this vessel?

Answer: Yamaha. Standard, multifunctional Yamaha tachometer is acceptable.

7 . Requirement 6-A: Can you advise which brand trolling motor will be installed?

Answer: Minn Kota

8. Requirement 6-B: lists dual batteries- but a 36v system would require 3 batteries.

Does this require the trolling motor batteries to be supplied with the boat? Or just the rigging set-up?

Answer : Batteries aren't required, just the rigging setup. Trolling motor rigging should allow for accommodation of a single, 36V lithium battery.

9. Requirement 10-A: Can you provide engine brand and planned horsepower that will be provided for installation?

Answer : F200XD Yamaha 200hp, 4s, 25”. Only the engine will be provided without any rigging components.

10. Request: We would like to request information around the 3” pipe and intended usage for requirement 5-E.

Answer: Pipe allows for quick release of juvenile fish for stock enhancement. The 3" PVC pipe that goes through the stern must have at least 2.5" inches of pipe on each side to allow attachment of rubber couplings/fittings and, on the inside of the vessel, have at least 1" of clearance from the floor of the vessel to allow attachment of the coupling.

Answer: Key details about the below specification.The 3" SCH80 PVC pipe allows for quick release of juvenile fish for stock enhancement. The 3" SCH80 PVC pipe that goes through the stern must have at least 2.5" inches of the pipe on each side of the stern to allow attachment of rubber couplings/fittings and, on the inside of the vessel, have at least 1" of clearance from the floor of the vessel to allow attachment of the coupling.
