leighfns Posted April 24, 2007 Report Posted April 24, 2007 (edited) Well I finally decided to pull the trigger and purchase a new boat over the weekend. Here is a pick of it (not mine but exactly the same) Specs... SPECIFICATIONS: Length 17' 4'' Beam 98" Depth Inside 27" Bottom Width 82" Max. Recommended HP 135 HP Max. Person Capacity 5 Persons Max. Person Weight 875 Lbs. Max. Weight Capacity 1650 Lbs. Weight (approx.) 1400 Lbs. Fuel Capacity 30 Gallons Package Length 22' 9'' Dead Rise 17 degrees Gauge 0.100" I got a 115 optimax on mine which I think should be plenty. Really looking forward to getting this out on the water If anyone is interested I now have a 2003 Legend 151 Angler for sale with a 25hp 2 stroke and 55pnd minkotta transom trolling motor.

irishfield Posted April 24, 2007 Report Posted April 24, 2007 Congrats and enjoy !! That would look really good with some pursuit holder/rigger tracks on it..lol. When do you take delivery?

silveradosheriff Posted April 25, 2007 Report Posted April 25, 2007 Nice wide beam - should handle the water well!

Hookset Posted April 25, 2007 Report Posted April 25, 2007 (edited) Very nice ride. 98 inch beam is a thing of beauty, some people don't understand that beam is more important than length any day. Edited April 25, 2007 by Hookset
bpsbassman Posted April 25, 2007 Report Posted April 25, 2007 Congratulations, I can only imagine your excitement! Beauty boat!
OhioFisherman Posted April 25, 2007 Report Posted April 25, 2007 Nice looking ride! A 115 should push that along well, and you can`t beat a wide boat!
bigbuck Posted April 25, 2007 Report Posted April 25, 2007 Congrats!! Enjoy the new boat!! Fishing is only going to be more fun now.
fishindevil Posted April 25, 2007 Report Posted April 25, 2007 Nice new ride.... now you have to get her all decked out with all the bells and whistles...im sure she will give you many years of fishing pleasure..lol..lol cheers
nautifish Posted April 25, 2007 Report Posted April 25, 2007 Very nice rig. Congrads & have fun with her.
bassassin Posted April 25, 2007 Report Posted April 25, 2007 Congrats, That boat can handle pretty much any situation you throw at it.I have the Identical boat with a 90 opti and we do 38mph with the factory prop ill be putting a ss prop with a higher pitch on her this year im sure well hit the majic number this year (40mph). With your motor i expect your boat to do 40-45mph no problem! The boat is incredibly wide, Lets hope you serenade her like we did last year!!! Best of luck and well see you on the water! Jason
Zib Posted April 25, 2007 Report Posted April 25, 2007 Congrats on the new Fisher/Tracker. Very nice boats. I really like the new bow rod storage.
leighfns Posted April 26, 2007 Author Report Posted April 26, 2007 Thx all.... Hope to catch you out on the water... Also I would like to give a shout out to Boatland Canada specifically Steve Jojos for hooking me up with a great deal. If you are looking to buy a boat you owe it to yourself to check these guys out.... Regards, Leigh
Cast-Away Posted April 26, 2007 Report Posted April 26, 2007 I hope that you really enjoy the new ride! The first scratch is the hardest part of getting a new boat. My poor wife made ours the first day out.

The deal may seem great, but be careful with those guys, I've had nothing but bad luck there. Sinker
