Yeah I'm with Goblue. Got to love the canoes. I too have caught some of my biggest fish from my Old Town.

MIDNIGHT

Just curious whats your top speed with that boat?/

[MIDNIGHT777]

Gregg52,

I have it loaded pretty well with "stuff." With 2 guys, all the gear, half tank of gas, ideal conditions, 23 pitch yamaha prop at wot.......... 47, 48, maybe 50 tops. I also have another prop (17 pitch i think) wot I can only get about 44, 45, but holeshot is MUCH improved. I usually use the 17 if I plan on having 4 guys in the boat or for watersports.

This is my first boat. Nothing fancy, but it's paid for. 1999 Tracker Pro Team 175 with 40 hp.

[Burnham]

looks like a nice rig to me!

[TonkaBass]

My old boat...

My new boat!

[prov1900]

Tonka,

Which is "better" in your opinion? Never owned either brand, but have always been a fan of both.

[Bottle Fish]

I have a 196? Delphi 12' aluminum boat with a 7.5 hp mercury on it. Nothing to brag about but it gets the job done. This pic is from 1977 with my dad and brother in the front. I wasn't even born yet and she still floats, a tree fell on it 2 yrs ago and still not a problem. Hopefully be putting it in the water very soon.

As stated earlier about bailing water out of the boat I wish we still had. Here it is. A 196? Cadillac Boat. Man I miss that boat.

[Sandmannd]

Here's mine. 2007 Ranger Reata, F150, T8, ect....

That's a sweet ride Matt. I love those Reata's.

[Larson15]

[MIDNIGHT777]

Thanks Sandmann!!!

This will be year #2 with it and so far I could not be happier!!!!! I had to get rid of the walleye boat so the wife could have a fish/ski boat and this was a great compromise. The way I have it set up actually looks more like a tournament walleye boat than anything else

[bassNspear]

Tonka,

I typed that then thought...oh oh, I just started a Ford/Chevy/Vex/Marcum/my dad/your dad debate. Good luck this season!!

[MIDNIGHT777]

Gregg52,

A new Ranger Reata 1850 with an F150 bare starts off about low 30's. All the extra pumps the price up fairly fast. Used will save you a lot of $$$.

Wells here is mine, nothing fancy but it gets the job done.

17 1/2 1998 Stratos. It's underpowered with only a 90 horse Johnson, but for the price at the time it was the best boat to get. But now with 3 kids, I will have to get a new boat when the youngest is old enough to get out.
