| Anyone have an in on an older marauder or rampage, even a bass about? I'm looking for something in the 15-17 range,, low decks, and little free-board. I"m going to use it to put in on lakes here in NE, and a few SD waters, possibly some of the smaller WI waters I fish.
I want a smaller boat, because it will be mainly me, prefer a tiller. Wouldn't be opposed to a tin boat, either. I've got previous ownership experience with Tuffy boats and want the same reliability. Ultimately, the boat that I would love to find is a Rampage150 with a 50 horse on it. I could build the rear deck, if need, but not a REAL issue, I can figure that out when I get to it.
If you guys have any resources other than what I've looked at...most of the major online boards, and want adds, shoot me a PM. This will be a second boat...puddle jumper rig, but something that can handle a bit more water than...say...a water spider or some such thing.
Appreciate the help in advance.

| Steve, the boat at Mr Marine sounds like it might work JUST right, and the kicker is the price is right, too. The bad thing is I have to find an outboard, now, if I decide to go that route.
Would it be worth it to throw a 40ish 4 stroke on that boat, or would it be too heavy? I know it had a 50 2str on it before they took it off. |

Location: Tinley Park. Fish Cen IL. Bass & Vilas Cty.Muskie | I found my rampage on craigslist- Minneapolis. I checked Madison, Milwaukee and Minneapolis along with my town-Chicago. It took a few months to find the right boat. I also googled Tuffy for sale and had a Lyros (best) search for tuffy.I bookmarked it and everytime I clicked on to it, it had most of the tuffys that were for sale on a page. There are alot of older boat for sale that have been for sale all year. Get a phone # and make a reasonable offer and you will get a good bargain- especally for a rebuild.If they have been trying to sell boat for last 5 months- explain to them its probably because their price is way to High. Good Luck |
