They seem to be pretty good boat's I haven't heard of many people complaining about them and like any aluminum boat it should be easily repairable and modifiable. If it looks good and is within your price range I say go for it but shop around and make sure your getting a good price for what it...

Ditto here, I had a 17 foot bass tracker I was planning on restoring but I got rid of it and opted for a 1542 with a 25hp Evinrude so gas prices won't even slow me down. I also have a Geo Tracker I am working on getting setup to tow with that should help save even more... I am however hoping...

Hooked up with this big cat this morning, we were trying to find some stripers but having no luck and was down to my last bait. Hooked it up and chunked it out and about 2mins later the bait alert started screaming and I pulled in this big un. Not a striper but still a worthy catch in my book...

Three people in any tin boat is a tight fit in my opinion I prefer two at the most.

Hit the river sat morning in search of some stripers but it was a complete bust it snapped off too cold outta the blue so I got some more done on the boat. Fabbed up alittle tray to mount the FF to and also to hold my pliers because I am tired of always looking for them. Got the ff and tranducer...

Mounting the rod holders on it, knew I was gonna catch crap for it but function over form...

What kind of conduit did you route your wiring in and can we see that?

For the first time this so called "winter" it is supposed to drop into the teens, I say bring it on...

Must be stocking up for valentines day. :roll: Absoutely unbeliveable this world is going to heck in a handbasket.

How wide are those boats?

Too good to be true it usually is... just sayin. However if you get it and it works as advertised let us know I am a pretty fluent welder of steel and aluminum but these still interest me.
