My new toy

[limeyangler]

Took a day off fishing and went and bought this.........

 

 

the guy phoned me back this morning, and when he heard my voice(accent) said...."i know you"....turned out to be Keith...the guy i helped in the pre- fish for the Red Lake Fall Classic .....meant to be?...hope so....

 

 

Anyway....its 1996 Polaris XLT Touring 600....around 4000 on the clock....not a bad deal at $1900...i thought so anyway .

 

 

Goin to winnipeg to pick up a frabill/eskimo/clam 3 man sled/shelter next week....should be set to go for ice fishing with a vengeance this year!!!

good sled. Stickers might need a change of colour but it should really serve your purpose well. No way I could live up there without at least one of those.

I really like your property. Nice. Must have been a big cahnge from sunny England.

My wife is from England as well.

You will have a sweet setup when you get your portable hut as well.

Look forward to seeing lots of hardwater pics from you.

not a bad deal for the north. its a polaris so it should last you a long time! its a bit on the heavy side so dont get it stuck! i had my sled out last night and what a blast! i'm just itching to get out on the lake!

[Greencoachdog]

What'd you do, shake hands with a "sweep"?

 

 

Looks like a sweet deal to me!!!

I have the same machine and wouldn't let you have it for 1900! Keep an eye on your crank though! I blew mine last year at 5000 miles and ended up nearly putting what you paid for yours to bring her back to shape. I love it though....but the colour. My fishing buddies call it the "purple gay fish slayer".

Sweet Ride Simon

 

We bought a used sled last year for ice fishing and what a difference it made. We can go pretty much anywhere now. It helps with the success rate for sure.

 

Great score, congrats
