Wondering about Voyager vs Otter Cabin - I have both


BoxMN

Recommended Posts

I just picked up a Voyager (4 year old) from a buddy, with two seats. No tow bar or hyfax. I also have a Otter Cabin (square tube, but Purple canvas) with Towbar and bench seat and hyfax. I plan to probably keep one at home and on at cabin. Have sleds at cabin and would only pull by hand here, or drop out of truck and fish.

Since I have hyfax on otter, should I just use the Otter behind sleds and keep the Voyager at home? Is Voyager any/much heavier than a Otter Cabin with bench seat? I haven't actually seen it yet, but know it is in perfect condition. I also don't know if the Voyager has cover with it... Maybe that is my better option for "pulling by hand"?...

Thanks for thoughts - this isn't a what is best post, just which of these two should I keep with sleds. I also have an otter Magnum sled at cabin, that I was thinking of getting a top for, since I have buddies with me lots of times... maybe I should keep all of them at cabin... I just want to be able to not have to drive my big truck up there all the time just to cart shacks around....

ps got a "can't pass it up" deal on this and a like new auger, and my buddy is happy cause he just wasnt' using it due to arthritis - said he will come out with me but not fish, just have some beers smile

Don't know it the Voyager is heavier that the Otter Cabin. What I can tell you, because I have had a Voyager for several years now, is that if there is more than a couple inches of snow it is really tough to pull by hand once you have your gear in it. Once we got a few inches of snow I had to wait until the ice was thick enough that I could throw it in the truck and haul it out that way. Solved that problem this year, bought a Polaris Ranger HD. Hope this gives you some idea as to what you may be facing.
