Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | 20' tillers are perfect for guiding two clients. Some have big decks, some do not, some have room for a Frabill on the floor, some do not, etc. Ride the rig first on the type of water you intend to guide, and take a look at the up front cost VS what you expect to gross in a year of guiding; a $700 per month boat payment on top of gasoline, tackle, insurance, and other costs can nick you hard, especially since those payments are year-round. Used is nice, but as a full time to mostly full time guide an active motor and boat warranty is absolutely critical, even somewhat minor breakdowns can cost you a week's guiding profit or more. |
