nancur373 Posted December 5, 2013 Report Posted December 5, 2013 Bought a Pelican Snow Trek 60 last week at Canadian Tire for 37.48+hst. I Had a rain check for it but it still rang in at the previous week sale price. So, I still have a rain check if anyone wants it. they are 74.99 regular price.
chris.brock Posted December 5, 2013 Report Posted December 5, 2013 I bought one too at 1/2 price, a good deal! I called about the optional tow bar, it was too expensive so I'll make my own. somebody should take Purenewf up on his offer
Joeytier Posted December 5, 2013 Report Posted December 5, 2013 I bought the sled and tow bar. Looks to be a nice sled package but the cover they sell for it for 30 bucks is a rip off. I'll be making my own.
nancur373 Posted December 7, 2013 Author Report Posted December 7, 2013 only good for 30 days guys. and yeah make your own cover way cheaper and better
Entropy Posted December 7, 2013 Report Posted December 7, 2013 I picked this up when it was on sale, it is great for pulling the kids throught the forest and along the shore.
nancur373 Posted December 7, 2013 Author Report Posted December 7, 2013 It has lot's of uses. was thinking someone may have missed it in the flyer or couldn't get to the store that week.
pisces Posted December 26, 2013 Report Posted December 26, 2013 PURENEWF - Please let me know if the raincheck is still available and where you are located (I sent PM)... thanks
davey buoy Posted December 26, 2013 Report Posted December 26, 2013 PURENEWF - Please let me know if the raincheck is still available and where you are located (I sent PM)... thanks Look at this weeks CT flyer,not a bad deal either.
Burtess Posted December 26, 2013 Report Posted December 26, 2013 Shappell Jet Sled 1 is about the same size at 54" X 25" X 10" and is regular price at BassPro for around $37 if I remember correctly, bought one earlier in the season. Has a more gradual taper so it may be easier to put as well. Burt
davey buoy Posted December 26, 2013 Report Posted December 26, 2013 (edited) I kept the original pull rope on my Otter,but guys if your loaded down like I am most times,I added two corner loop pull ropes.No more hitting heels,A guy off to each side.25-30 min walk,makes the pull so much easier. Just a thought. Edited December 26, 2013 by davey buoy
pisces Posted December 26, 2013 Report Posted December 26, 2013 Thanks davey buoy and burtess. This weeks pelican 45 has ONE bad "tippy" rating otherwise OK I work 2 blocks from Bass Pro so I may check out the Shappell CT user comments (3 good, 1 bad) Overall Rating Quality Durability Ease of use tagish2 Share this review: Snow Trek 45 sled December 28, 2009 "These sleds are garbage. Save your money or buy one that is wider. They are very tippy in deep snow and securing a load in them (ex. power ice auger) is next to impossible. I have two I would gladly sell."
BillM Posted December 26, 2013 Report Posted December 26, 2013 Any sled will be 'tippy' without a towbar attached to it. With a towbar, I can't see how that's even possible.
Joeytier Posted December 26, 2013 Report Posted December 26, 2013 Any sled will be 'tippy' without a towbar attached to it. With a towbar, I can't see how that's even possible. Yup. I broke trail into a back lake through 3 feet of powder the other day and it worked great lol
John Bacon Posted December 27, 2013 Report Posted December 27, 2013 I think the Pelican 45 is more of a hand pull sled. I have a couple. I like the small size because I can put two in the back of my GMC Jimmy without having to fold the seats down. It works well for me; I have not tried using it behind a vehicle.
