Why did clam get rid of the X2?

[Hazzard]

I like the sled and how heavy duty it was built.

Good question Duke. I just picked up an X2 and am impressed with it. Other than the thermal cap, it seems better designed than the new models.

[MercMan]

Here is the reason why Clam discontinued the X2. Sales have nose-dived over the past couple of seasons. It was just too expensive to build, and the retail was expensive at $699. It is still a great shelter, but there just isn't a big enough market anymore.

So, Clam took parts of the Voyager, X2, and Thermal X and combined them into one "hybrid" and came up with the Voyager TCX. It has the Voyager tub, the X2 poles, and the Thermal Cap is derived from the Thermal X. Oh, and the retail came DOWN $100 to $599.

This is an awesome fish house. Check them out!

Hey young slick nice avatar!!

Early icing soon eh?

[MinnGuy]

Makes sense MercMan. I'm glad I found an X2 at a decent price. I like the tub and the adjustable seats. The thermal top would be nice and a hundred bucks off the price is definitely nice.

[Hazzard]

Thanks Mercman

You like that shirt I'm wearing, Fisky? Ice real soon, my man! Going to send you an email shortly with some details so you can make some space on your calendar.

[fiskyknut]

Nice shirt! Come early December you'll be sport'n a blue outfit on a white LOTW background, oh and a Burbot!

They missed the boat with the Voyager sled. Should have stuck to a heavier design. I coulda sold 5 X2's already and have only sold 1 Voyager. The X2 was our best seller last yr....Oh and dont get me started on the complaints about the non adjustable seats!!!! THe Thermal X is basically an X2,but most around here dont care for the thermal.

I bought one towards the end of the season last year at a greatly reduced price. I only got to use it a hand full of times I really like it alot

Has anyone saw any of last years models out for sale? I am in the market.

TB has some already put together.

[Dozer]

I have an x2 and love it. I had a voyager before that and that sled is a joke! I think clam really missed the boat on this one!

[bopper4]

I'm sorry but what is TB and any idea on retail price?

[MinnGuy]

Thorne Brothers. Sometimes the name gets edited out.

I got an X4 towards the end of last season and I love it. You couldnt ask for a more comfortable house for 2 guys.

i like the feel of the seats in the new clams, but i like how the seats go back and forth and side to side in my yukon. I like the poles in the X2 and new clams compared to my yukon. I hate how the tray sits in the new clams compared to my yukon. As far as getting rid of the trap link i really could care less, i never used it yet.

may just have to pick up a new clam and since im a machinist make a copy of the yukon seats for the new clam

I was just at Scheels in St Cloud and they have a X2 and maybe more for 549.99. I didn't ask if the floor model is the only one left because I already have one and love it. I don't use mine for early ice because it is heavy, but I did quite a few mods on it to make it heavier. It is still easier to pull with the mods than my Eskimo.
