I'd agree there, I want my next boat to be a side console aluminum hull skinny water shrimpin, gator killing buck bed finding kinda machine.

I like the trackers ok, they seem cheaply made but what isn't anymore?

 

I have an Alumacraft, its been a great boat.

 

The way they finance boats nowadays just about anybody can afford just about anything. Doesn't mean it's smart. If I was getting one today, it would be a Lowe Roughneck SC 1860 that has a 53" port side gun box...

 

since 1995.
Not a speck of a leak.



Cheap???
Wasn’t back then..

 

That's true, but from experience working on them.. the trackers were extra cheap

 

Bust out another thousand

 

They make for some good memories
Really miss having a boat and going fishing. Alas the new place and a tractor replaced all that. I still miss going out at 4AM on the water though

 

My boat

 

Looking sharp, is this after the repairs?

 

No, this was before. The boat is currently in the garage.

 

Fun little boat. Not as nice as yours but gave me no problems. Just sold it last summer to my nephew. That’s him getting ready to take it out.

 

Tracker’s are very popular up here. Not unusual to see three at the launch or pass one on the water. I always yell “Hey, nice boat!!”

 

Didn't mean any disrespect Mike, I would absolutely own a Tracker. Just looking at some of the welds today, I didn't feel like the finishing touches were even B grade. Of course things change year to year.

The Tracker trimmed out how I would want it is like 24k-28k. The Lowe how I would want it is like 32-35k so there's that....

 

Oh never thought that for a sec. My boat is riveted… At one time they had a public chat feature on the tracker website. They had a bad run of leaky boats and the public crucified them. They took the chat down.
Maybe I’m lucky, I don’t know..

mine was/is a tank

 

Those are legit! All welded monsters!

 

I wasnt sure if I'd like the stick steer but I only have to get up if I need to pee so I'm good with it.

 

Re: Bass pro visit...
I asked the gun counter man lemme put hands on that Tikka rifle right there to which he responded have you signed into the app and my eyes rolled completely into the back of my head and my head almost exploded...

Why in the cotton picking crap would I sign into an app to touch a gun. You lost me Bass Pro. You and everybody else in the world wants my cot dang data and I just ain't doing it.

those seaark boats are sick, I've just decided I want the open floor plan that a side console gives you, I'm not opposed to surface drive but tiller drive just seems like a literal pain in the neck...
