I own one. It is an 18 gallon built in aluminum tank.
PM sent about my 180vf
I have an 1989 Charger 180VF and it has two little cracks in the gel coat on the transom in the corner less than an inch long no other cracks anywhere in the gel coat. No issues with fit and finish...
I should come down for this show.
The INDR does this with every lake they touch. When Turtle creek was at its heyday it was ran by the power plant personnel. IDNR comes in and runs it and its history. Then look how great a fishery...
What is the pole hanging off of the front of the trolling motor on the red boat?
I have the Maxx 27 and just had one go bad. Purchased August of 2012. Looking at Lithiums for the weight but the cost per years of use is hard to swallow when you get 6 years from 2 $100 batteries.
I just purchased 2 new Navionics Hot Maps Plus for the east. The Michagan mapping is really good. Used it last weekend.
I have a 1989 180vf and I do miss the rear storage but it keeps me from carrying everything except the kitchen sink.
I have had 1989 180vf to 69.8 mph with an Evinrude 150. I have tried everything to get that last 0.2 but to no avail.
I also have a 1990 XP150. Still running the VRO. Ran the XD100 since power head rebuild 5 years ago. Just changed the first set of plugs out with almost 200 hrs on the motor. Less smoke and engine...
Lee's advise is on the mark. I too have wasted many hours on the wood on the left side. If you say a little to the left on the ramp you should be ok. I wish you could get past the bridge in a glass...
I purchased an 1989 180VF in 2004 and may never get rid of it. They are quality boats. As long as the trailer and engine are good you should not have any concerns about the hull.
Has anyone been doing any good fishing Brookville at night this year? Not looking to fish Monroe at night when it is up as high as it is right now.

I could not live without mine. Great place for scent bottles. I mounted my plier holder just back from the strap. Hold lures. The recess will hold your used up plastics until you get home to discard...
My engine was off by about the same amount. I checked it from the cap and also from the sides of the pads. It was off the same. I filled in the original holes with an oak dowel rod and fiberglass I...
What does it do if you take all of your tackle out of it. I have the same problem if I gradually add more tackle. My 180vf is very weight sensitive for the hole shot. More weight up front causes it...
This would make a great boat. The engine looks to be a 1990. Same stickers as my 1990 XP150. They had a little more horsepower than the standard 100's. Price is not out of range if everything...
I have a 1989 180vf with an Evinrude XP150. Run good gas and quality oil and it should be a reliable engine for many years. I love the boat also. It rides great for less than 18ft boat. $3500 I a...
I better not show my wife that purple is a color option or she will have me order a new boat. On second thought what part of that would I lose out on?
I have an 1989 180vf and there are 3 tiny cracks in the outer gelcoat about a 1/2 inch long on each corner at the top of the transom. Show me any other boats this old with only stress cracks this...
When I called today they said they would be open for fishing after the hunting season Feb 16th. This was after saying they were open during the week from 12 pm to 10 pm for fishing and no fishing the...
That is a great looking boat. Love the colors.
I found the same issue today. Some of the other links still work but cannot get to the Forum page.
