Driving ability has more to do with ride quality than a foot difference in length.

Locks only keep honest people honest. I just take the graphs off when on the road and at the end of the day when staying over night anywhere.

This ^^^^^^^^ :thumb up2:

Dude sounds like he is trying to pull a scam to me.

Actually part of his question was asking what 17" tire size would match the outside diameter of his existing......

Sure, lots of options with that bolt pattern. Offset might be an issue and you can get that spec from BassCat. A little research will tell you what size and aspect ratio tire will have the outside...

Trailers for Ranger aluminum have been made by Tracker for a few years, same as the boats. If glass boat trailers moved away from EZ Loader I would imagine it was to Tracker as well.

Transoms in 87, stringers in 88 and 100% wood free in 89, but it was a phase in type of deal, early model year boats may not have the changes. Regardless, check the transom well, water intrusion CAN...

I am pretty sure I don't trust the source but that tool from the Team Marine channel on YouTube did a video claiming the Pro XS 4st have an issue with motor mounts breaking. That is the one and only...

He has a Command Thrust lower unit which has a lower gear ratio, it needs more pitch than a standard Pro XS

How long ago did the dealer change the seals? I would be taking that oil/water straight to the dealer and telling them to fix it right if the repair was recent. In any case, another seal job is in...

Just how does a lower unit simply "fall" off?

IF the motor passes inspection by a mechanic and the hull and gel are in truly great shape, everything works as it should and he has clean title's in hand, max I would offer is 16k. Single axle...

Tough call, I've owned both and strength and durability go to the Raptor, but not by much. As stated above, they are rock solid running or on the trailer. They can also be networked to Humminbird...

No issues with that Ram nut coming loose at all? Seems like a slick idea, not sure about the holding power of a single fastener holding that much weight. Especially in rough water.

THIS ^^^^^^^^^^^ 100% The Alberto knot is plenty strong, small and I can tie it without looking. Now, if I were to waste time on an FG knot, I would do the same thing I do to an Alberto and use a...

SAVAGE!!!!!!!!!! :roll::beers:

Mustad short shank Triple Grips, have for years. Tried most other options out there and always come back to the Mustads.

If it was the letters would be backwards............

Thats what they say now, but just like they did with the wolves, they denied it for years until the evidence was too strong to deny.

You will gain 1-3mph by having less hull contact with the water by being balanced on the pad. Less friction=more efficient use of available power. Now, as to the chine walk itself, walk away from...

2 1/2-5 1/2" extra length is pretty meaningless, Go with whichever motor suits you, they can be adjusted up as necessary.

The 185 is a price point boat, rating it for only a 150 keeps it below that price point, even though it could be USCG rated to 200. Value over performance is the priority. The 518, being a more...

Sorry dude but the verbiage clearly states measurement is "to the lowest point of the transom TO WHICH THE MOTOR IS MOUNTED", which is quite far ahead of the drain plug due to the built in set-back,...

Do you store it outside? If not, leaving it uncovered and the lids open when the boat is not in use will solve much of your issue.

I believe all his sponsors, as with 80% of the Elites and BPT anglers, were all or mostly product only. Very few "pros" get paid cash and many that do its on a bonus basis, not any kind of cash...
