Hey - I have the oppertunity to buy a 1987 Lunker tiller that is in pretty good shape with a 1984 30 horse electric start Johnson on it. Its been stored inside and has three ped seats. the livewell works and its on a shorelander trailor. It comes with a cover as well. I have been out of the boat buying game for a while, does $2500 sound like a fair price? I will be using it on medium size lakes and the occasional trip to Mille Lacs ( if the weather is decent, I know this boat isnt ideal for big water but its whats in the budget right now ). If anyone has any opinion on this boat on medium to large lakes I would appreciate the feedback! Thanks, B
Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
