I'm looking at a 2002 Lund 1675 w/ a 60hp and am wondering if it's big enough to feel safe on a windy day (or night) on millelacs/winnie/red or other big water. I like the fact that it's small enough to get into smaller lakes & rivers where I mostly fish and I don't mind rough seas I just don't wanna be stuck on the dock when the big boys are still out. Any input from any explorer owners on how they handle on rough days? thanks
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.
