 This one was from Bastrop and was 22" and probably close to 8lbs. That is the amount of line I had out when she hit.

Mark, yes it is a Tracker. Its my buddys' boat. Much better ride with the new bow. I have one that is 20 years old and will beat you to death on a windy day.

MarkT,
I was torn between the PT175 & PT185, but since I am 300lbs I went with the PT185. Rides smooth and is very stable. I think it is a good value for the money. I would recomend upgrading the motor as their standard motors are a bit small. I went with the 60hp Merc and I get almost 35mph. I might add a new prop though. Just remember, it will never ride like a Ranger but at $13K out the door, you get an extra $30K for a new truck to pull it! All depends on your priorities!
Just my 2 cents.

azcoyote,
Yea I upgraded the motor to a 50 merc. I will definitely get me a SS prop before long. And yes I think it's a Great value. I'm currently paying for the $30K truck that pulls it. I love the ride of mine.

MarkT,
The PT175 with the 50hp was my other choice. The only thing I think I need to add is a graph up front. If not, I think I will need neck surgery before too long!*ouch* Other than that I love it. Bought mine last June and still satisfied.

azcoyote,
Yea I upgraded my fish finder when I bought mine. I had them move the one that came with the boat up front. Then I went ahead and ordered a FishElite 480 w/GPS for the console. It has the place where you add the memory chip. I bought the chip with the map details. It's great! I really recommend it. Show's the underwater detail that's great. I'm truly glad I got it. So if your looking for a better graph I give it 2 thumbs up. If you have any questions about give me a holler.
