[QUOTE="fl.graderman, post: 405423, member: 20523"] When I was young, my grandpa had a coast guard orange, plastic dinghy with oars. It was about 12 feet long, had a bench at the bow and one at the stern where we sat facing each other. We would follow the shore line staying about 50 feet away and take turns rowing while the other would cast. Actually I think he did a lot more rowing and I did a lot more casting. Good times. I think you'll like how solid that Grizzly is built. I have the 1448 and this things a tank! You may want to consider a 24 v set up like captain said because that hull weighs almost 600 lbs by itself. I'm about to buy the minn kota riptide sp because it's bow mounted, but it comes with a key chain fob wireless control so I can sit at the stern and steer if I so desire. It's a little pricey at $850, but then again, I'm looking at saltwater models... 2015 Tracker Grizzly 1448 MVX 1996 Evinrude 25hp 3 cylinder looper [/QUOTE]
