Thanks for the opinion Pedro and shaley, I don't disagree except to say that my boat currently has a 48 and only 1 time this season did I have to lower that all the way. Maybe a poor sampling of data though to generalize that much. Last 4 weekends on Mille Lacs though without issue, 690 bow rides pretty low which I like.
Is the 80lb enough on that 618?
Get the 80#/60". 80 is plenty for that that boat. It's enough for mine. 101 would be cool, but I've already got four batteries on my boat, so one more would be too much. The 80 moves my boat fine.
As far as the shaft, get the long one. I too don't know how you've made it with a 48. I've pulled my 60" out of the water several times this year. LSC is big water, but it's not uncommon. Get the 60" and be done with it. |
