Anyone running a Tracker grizzly 1648 SC ?

[born 2 fish]

Anyone run one of these? I’m thinking about getting one or the 1754 to fish the river and smaller lakes. Any cracked stringer welds I read some of the older ones had some issues but I’ll probably get a newer one or brand new if I can’t find what I want. Probably just gonna get it with the 25hp and put a 80lb ultrex on the front.

I have a 2013 1754 Grizzly tiller/20hp. No issues with any cracks. For years I was looking at/for a 1648 and ran across this 1754 and grabbed it. Glad I went with the bigger boat, much more stable while fishing.

I would go 1754 if it was me. You will love the room and stability over the 1648.

I have a 2006 Tracker Grizzly 1860 which I have been in some pretty nasty weather with and also beach it pretty hard on the ramps here in NJ where there's very few docks. There is a brace from my transom which I added some additional rivits to but other than that no issues. Boat is super stable at rest which is why I still have it. Mine was an empty shell when I got it and I built it up.

That's nice! Simple, low maintenance, and effective.

I have a 1648SC and it seems to be a very sturdy built boat. I have a 50hp on it and it handles it well. It is a heavy boat.
