Hi All,
Just picked up this Tracker last August. Only mods/repairs I've done so far is to change out the lower unit on the 40hp mariner and replace the MK 595 with a Terrova. The old trolling motor worked fine, but the mechanical turn (not digital) interfered with my fly casting. I plan to redeck it this winter after Striper season here on the California delta. I want to incorporate a 12" step all along the port side as to accomidate a rod locker underneath for 9' poles. This boat is really working out well for me. Grammy likes to bait cast off the back while I fly cast on the front. Still deciding on what electronics for the front, so I bought a cheap 5" helix ($200) to use for now until I figure it out. Grandkids call it the "Grammy & Poppo" boat.
