Nice Rig!! Big Mac

Just wondering I see you have a ski tow bar, does it unattach from the boat when you are not going to use it. Looking for a ski tow bar for mine and that one looks good.

Thanks

With tillers going the way of the dinosaur, I picked up one of these little beauties. Sadly, it's the last model year for them. It seems everyone wants a bare bones tiller or a boat with a console. I wanted a bit of luxury with a tiller. It's getting harder to find.

I'm not big on posting personal info to the internet at any time, and as a rule, I don't post pics on the net, but that's not why I blurred the face. That's not me in the pic, and I have no right to post other people's faces on the internet.

Not entirely true my friend, Tillers are coming on stronger and stronger and with the lund you can get about 5 or 6 models outside of the Pro-vs that are loaded with all kinds of options my 2010 predator has everything a Pro-V has including double plated hull and the only difference is no big gunnels on the side actually more room!

Sorry, most manufacturers are cutting back on tiller models. Yes, there are still a few around but not like there was 10 years ago. Tillers are most definitely not coming on stronger. Lund is one of the few manfacturers that offers more than one or two models.

Default post pics of your fishing machine

So this Sunday and Monday the weather is looking pretty killer. The fishing in and around Jackson Hole is pretty blown out right now so I was wondering what is fishing well within a few hour drive. Is there anything worth a drive to wade in the some water? I promise to post a short TR. Im just tweaking to get out again.

Entirely true my friend! I qoute "Crestliner has now put hemselves in position to create a tiller model because of increasing tiller sales!

and how about: Yar craft(4 models)
ranger(3 models)
lund(7 models)
warrior(4 models)
princecraft(2 models)
Tracker still has problem putting good boats together and do not offer a tournament tiller!
mirro craft(2 models)
alumnicraft(4 models)
So as you can see the proof is in the pudding!

Well i was looking forward to ice fishing, but finally bought my dream boat and can't wait for the ice to melt. Hopefully have a few rod benders/breakers this summer. Special thank-you to 2430M for the help with the pictures!!!
Wow, now that is a sweet boat!

Do you have a pic of the pro kicker mounted on the back?
I have an crestliner 1800 I/O and was interested in mounting a kicker on, but was unsure how it would look.

this is my Dad's 2009 1925 Harbercraft Adventure, this was one of the last boats to be welded up in sylvan lake before they consolidated the operation in BC. sports a 115hp 4 stroke Yamaha and 6hp kicker. lowrance HDS 5 GPS/Sonar Combo, Sony Stereo. Harbercraft was generous enough to modify the paint scheme to My Dad's preference, and the interior seating was modified to meet my Mom's expectations. it has an extended length Bench on the port side, and a beer cooler seat on the starboard side. the cooler seat can be removed to make room for my Daughters playpen. My Dad had custom cushions built to completely cover the bow. that's the place where the girls go.

I am still rocking the old 14 ft lund with 20hp 2 stroke Johnson with a happy kicker trolling plate and a 30lb minkota kicker. . this boat has plywood floor, and the middle bench removed to make more room for the greasy pike. we are using the clamp on fishin buddy fish finder, and the trusty handheld GPS for marking the holes.

Here's my 26' aluminum boat that I spent 2 years of evening and weekends building from scratch. It has spent the last few years on the waters off the north west coast of Vancouver Island and it works awesome.
