Location: north central wisconsin | I know I am preaching to the choir here, and have spoken about this before, but thought it has been about a year so I'd see if there has been any development. I am wondering if anyone has customized a 620 or 618T for a rear deck yet. Again, the wife and I are looking to get into one of these for next season, but will do so only if I can come up with a decent rear deck assembly. Tuffy is the next on our list, but I would need some other customization for it to work for me(front deck is tooooooo big). That said, at least Tuffy has their boats built so a rear deck can be an option. With the control panel in the location it is on the Ranger, it is nearly impossible to even make something work. I emailed Ranger, and the local rep(Steven Lindaahl) did call me right away and was very helpful and wanted to get me into one of their rigs. He said there was no plans to change anything, and that a customized deck would need to be made(I knew that already), but did say he was glad to hear from someone who uses these rigs for musky fishing alot, and had suggestions for a possible improvement. I told him how popular the 620T has become for a musky fishing rig, and that if he knew where guys were standing in the back to get elevated(the rubber pads on the transom), he'd see what I was talking about. If someone has made a deck that doesn't look out of place, please send pics to me, as I'd greatly appreciate it. [email protected] I can only wait and hope..... |
