Just resurrecting this thread. I'm thinking about buying a machine, and have 0 experience with them. I'm finding it hard to interpret what would suit me.
I'd like to use a machine for ice fishing, and towing the kids around on a sled across the lake when the fishing is slow. I'd like something that could get me through the mountain trails in the Bighorn Backcountry also maybe give that Golden Triangle a run too. I have no appetite for risky use such as high-marking or boondocking in random sledding areas. I'm not too fond of the 2 stroke smell so I think I'd like a 4 stroke, but I understand that comes with a weight penalty.
Anyhow from what I've researched I think I might be happy with a late mode Yamaha Nytro XTX, but looking to see if anyone has experience and thinks that's a poor choice.
Should say too that I'm looking to spend under $5k.
