Info on sled please

[Wayne Ek]

I'm thinking of getting a used sled to pull my Otter portable house for ice fishing. Will something like the Arctic Cat Z370 be large/powerful enough to pull the portable. As you may have guessed, I'm not up on sleds, we currently use an ATV to pull most of our housed.

I have a ski doo 380 fan that pulls just fine. It pulls my portable with a otter sled behind my portable. It is a long track so that does help a little bit.

Definitely enough power, but that's probably all you can use it for.

Should be enough. I would stick with a fan cooled sled as I have over heated a few liquid cooled sleds do to lack of snow.

I have an old '88 Polaris Indy 400 liq. cooled that I traded a conoe for... great sled! The smaller size will work great for ice fishing, and more than enough power. I have studs on mine and they help a LOT!

You don't need a power house sled for ice fishing, but the more the better of course. I also have 600 yammie, and to be honest the 400 works just as good. Good luck! Clean the carbs and run it like heck, you will have fun!

I agree with everyone else in that, that sled will be just fine for pulling your Otter. We've been using a Puma 340 fan on Lake of the Woods for years and it's right there with everyone else whenever we go fishing.

I can't say personally on that sled. But my cousin recently sold his 97 xcr 600 triple due to it being finicky and inheriting an older Polaris colt 340 colt TX. He doesn't trail ride much anymore and has nothing but great things to say about the sleds performance in pulling his portable ice hut. I would think you could trail ride that 370 also. Maybe not ride like your hair is on fire but a nice easy cruise. Actually. My wife's uncle has that sled for one of his boys and loves it for a smaller sled. I told him if he ever wants to part with it I want first dibs for his niece...aka "the wife".
