Sharkbait22 Posted December 4, 2014 Report Posted December 4, 2014 This is my 2013 Skidoo Expedition sport with the 600ACE. Wish I got to use it more.....only 600 km on the thing in 2 years!! Only because I'm riding the work sled 6 days a week and the last thing I want to do on my day off is going snowmobiling!! Here's the work sled. I absolutely love this thing. 2014 Skidoo Skandic SWT with the 600ACE.....154" long x 24" wide studded track. My kind of sleds. Is that a ca 1997 Skandic in the back? I have the 380 version, but would like a 2001-2003 Skandic LT 440 or if I had the money the Expedition 600 you have. I'd love to drive a SWT, the pulling power must be ridiculous.
Freshtrax Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 You guys should bring some of these vintage sleds to sled fest in wasaga and run them down the track.
c10 Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 Geeze, this thread makes me want to find one of those super cheap functional sleds just so I don't have to walk so far on the ice! aha Some great stuff you guys have found!
Raf Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 RickOnt's enticer looks immaculate given the year.
Dara Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 akin wrapper off in october. Apex or Vector?
bare foot wader Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 those skandic swt's are awesome, got to bomb around the laydown at work, only about 12k out of my price range LOL I know nothing about sleds, anybody got an opinionon this sled below? my buddy who knows his crap is in camp right now, so waiting till he's out to take a look, don't want to waste the driving time if it's not worth it....main purpose is ice fishing, maybe a little trail riding http://www.kijiji.ca/v-snowmobile/kelowna/1991-arctic-cat-jag-440-with-reverse/1030982449
Joeytier Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 Looks like an awesome little fishing sled. Lots of 20+ year old AC 440's still on the market so I would say you are getting a reliable machine

Joey Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 Of course the front is cracked now after Terry made us jump over an unmarked shed hole
BillM Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 Following Terry sounds like it might be hazardous to your health
Terry Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 hey, I was waving you off but Paul was playing with his new gps or something and didn't even look up

Arctic cat makes a pretty decent sled, and those old cats where pretty reliable. To bad they can't make a decent ATV. The long track allows for a bit of a premium and the cargo basket is a nice feature. I would look at paying around $1200. A compression check is pretty much mandatory, and have your buddy with some knowledge look it over! Nice ice fishing machine, of course the listing is in Kelowna BC though. Not sure how much ice fishing you get in out that way! Edited December 5, 2014 by porkpie
limeyangler Posted December 6, 2014 Report Posted December 6, 2014 The lad and me took the dog for a walk tonight…………. bumped into some of his school bus buddies too.
Joey Posted December 7, 2014 Report Posted December 7, 2014 hey, I was waving you off but Paul was playing with his new gps or something and didn't even look up No, it was his hand warmer LOL
Joeytier Posted January 2, 2015 Report Posted January 2, 2015 Ouch. We've got a nice base and theyre forecasting another 15-20 cm here this weekend then -25's and -30's after that. Winter has truly arrived!
irishfield Posted January 2, 2015 Report Posted January 2, 2015 Well at least your ice will form well over there... we've got over 22 inches, over the last 3 days, here in Penetang.
chris.brock Posted January 2, 2015 Report Posted January 2, 2015 (edited) yeah Wayne, this warm stuff coming should get rid of the little snow we have on the ice, then it's deep freeze, ice making time! not arrived in southern Hali, but soon Joey Edited January 3, 2015 by chris.brock
