Location: north central wisconsin | Thanks for the response Mike. You will be called to help build an extension for me, for any rig I choose(hopefully I can pay with fishing trips or something)!!! You, muskihtr, and I are not the only ones who like the same things in a rig. We tiller guys need to be heard!!!
Looking at the top view(thanks for posting it Steve), it does look as though there is some room to cast up there now. Is the rear splash area almost level with the deck as it looks? I thought that the rear was layed out more like a 618T(that has no rear deck at all). I was wrong. In talking about the ultimate rig, though, the front deck is still much too big for me. I need more actual floor space for storage of equipment. I require enough room to lay my net flat on the floor with the handle extended. What is the length of floor between decks as is? Wish I wasn't so picky. Wife is glad that I am though, as I haven't spent any money yet. That 1760 is definately as close as anything I've seen yet, though, to being it. Would love to see one in person soon. Has the dry storage been improved in the Tuffy line? I know I've had problems with the older ones.
In all honesty, I think Ranger should really offer a Tiller with a deck as well, or at least an add on, and alternative mounting area for guages(who had the bright idea to put them where they are...DOGhH).
Do you have a picture of the bottom of the hull of the 1760?
