| Just wondering what are some of the boats, under 19', that have lockable rod storage for 9' foot rods? Thanks for the help. |

The only thing I see on the web for price point is Skeeter was trying to keep it right at , or under 30K with a 4 stroke 150. Boat Motor trailer ...... There is a post of a quote with a dual console 150 for 36K though? Looks like one very forward thinking lay out fore sure. And 53 MPH out of a 4 stroke 150 in a 18.25 ft glass hull is impressive.

Dude actually you can kink a 9'6" in there!!! I have a 2000 also and my 9'6" Predators will never see road dust again!! As if the Ranger 681 needed any more selling points.  |

Pretty good price for a 18' rig with everything but finder/gps units from the dealer.. I think this also includes freight and prep charges |

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | 9' 3" rods in the Tuffy 1890 C, DC, T or GT, GC, or GDC Esox Deep V front deck rod tubes. 8' front deck, 5' rear fishing platform with rear deck module installed. If you want a big cockpit, remove the rear module (takes about 5 minutes) and still have a large rear platform.
Removable rear deck module, seating options for 4.
GDC Pictured.
X190, 2060 and 2100 take over 9' rods as well.

Location: Iowa | Steve, you have any shots of the transom on that tuffy. They are a sharp looking boat, the only thing I don't care for about them is the way the last 3' of the boat is designed. Seems like there is some waste deck space with that fiberglass divider being placed that far forward. The last time I seen one, it was sitting out in front of the old medina extreme show. So maybe they have changed by now.

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | The belly band was moved back quite a bit on all models a couple years ago to add to cockpit space, after the redesign that went to the rear 52" well and front deck center rod lockers. The splashwell behind the belly band is level with the deck insert and livewell surface, so it's easy to stand back there. Most other boats that's a thin glass or sheet metal splashwell that isn't fishable at all. |

Location: Storm Lake, IA | Steve, So how does the 1890 compare in price with the Skeeter MX 1825? I'm interested in both boats, but not much information besides muskiefirst on the tuffys. Thank you |

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | About the same money rigged as advertised. The 1890 is 5" longer and has a bigger front deck. In the Esox Deep V model, the rear deck is larger offering more storage and a center mounted bicycle style power post seat. |
