Subject: Boat Pics


I am starting to look for my own boat and have a pretty good idea of what brands I am considering, but I was wondering if you all could post some pics of your outfits. We all will then not only get to see your boat, but we will be able to see how you have it rigged which may give some of us something new to think about. I look forward to seeing the pics.

Thanks,
Keystone

Here is my 2008 Polar Kraft 1910, powered by a 225 Suzuki. Lowrance 112 on the dash and a 80 pound Terrova for the trolling motor. It's definately a sweet sweet musky machine! Huge front deck, tons of storage and it as MOJO!!! LOL

Mike,

That's a nice ride, and cool idea with the video. That would be a tad large for my storage space. Thanks,

Nice boat and motor Marshall. I miss my VMAX a little, though I do love my four stroke. BTW, I've got a stack of OX66 parts sitting in my garage if you ever need any! lol

Thanks, and I remember your episode. Nothing personal, but I would prefer not to jinx my motor with those parts.

Yeah, I like the motor as well. Runs like a raped ape (I can tickle the 60 mph mark), but wish it wouldn't smoke so much at start up, but you know what they say...it's a 2 stroke.

Nice job on the restore muskie hunter. Did you have to do much work to the outside? She looks like she really shines. How long did it take you to complete the work?

i purchased the boat with somethings done .it needed a new transom /new wiring and a control panel with some fabrication to mount and relocate things.turned out to be a fun project.it took a year to finish.i did spring for a new outboard.the one that was on it had a bad water pump and rev lock mech. and showed signs of over heat.

This is picture of my Mirrocraft Aggressor EXP. Very roomy casting decks, front and back. Not too good of a pic but it gives you an idea of the layout.

Here is a good example of a smaller boat you can make into a great muskie boat. This is my 14ft deep and wide I use alot when fishing by myself or fishing two guys on smaller bodies of water. Great little boat when set up right and it saves me a ton gas compared to my Mirrocraft EXP

Cool pics everone, keep them coming. I too am in the beginning stages of deciding what type of boat I am going to buy. I is going to have to be used, but I need something with some decent room (2 kids) and it has to be in very nice condition....I am very picky.

Here's my musky rig. BassCat Pantera IV. 19'-5"X94" and more storage than three guys need for a day on the water. Handles/fishes/stores great. Couldn't ask for a better boat for me.

Dirt Esox,

I like your rig, but I am curious about how that 115 yami handles the 18 footer.

Why did Ranger stop making the console 618? That is a perfect musky rig IMO. I'm in the market for a new rig and that would be at the top of my list.

probably weren't selling enough 618 consoles.
You can still find 2009 618 consoles at some Ranger dealers, new on the showroom if you want one go get one!
