    Clam X2 vs. Otter XT Pro Lodge

    I could be wrong (happened once or twice) but when I was flexing the lips on the two sleds the otter had alot of movement and the clam was pretty solid. - - - Updated - - - it may still be but with thinner/different quality poly???

    Clam X2 vs. Otter XT Pro Lodge

    the otter sled is now a dark grey instead of black which leads me to believe they changed materials.

    Clam X2 vs. Otter XT Pro Lodge

    So I am in the market for a new flip over (full thermal) and have it narrowed down to these two. I looked at them last year as well and thought that the otter had an advantage as they seem well build and have a good rep for a very rugged sled. Looked at them the other day at scheels and the...

    Gratitude

    this thread makes me feel cheap. I tip 15% at a restaurant but have never tipped a maid. The restaurant industry baffles me. The owner hires the servers and pays them almost nothing and then relies on the customers to pay his employees... :;:huh

    New: Eskimo EVO Crossover Shelters

    I have a clam hub which I like except for the anchors. If I dont bring the drill with, I cant get them in. Just one more thing to remember to bring and worry about the battery being charged. an old fashioned hand drill like that to make pilot holes would probably work fine.

    New: Eskimo EVO Crossover Shelters

    thats the first thing I thought of too. Interesting concept though. Do the eskimo anchors suck balls as badly as the clam anchors do??? - - - Updated - - - Is your X2 the fully insulated one with the grey tub??? I may be in the market for one of those.

    galvanized boat trailer

    well, not sure I will be buying a new one right now as I am just finishing up an expensive building project. Will keep looking for a used one. If anybody hears of a trailer in decent shape that an 1850 tyee will fit on let me know.

    galvanized boat trailer

    Ive been looking online for a used one and found a couple for a 17' but didnt think it would work for my 1850 tyee. kinda in a hurry to buy since all my trips are 100+ miles one way and the old trailer is about shot. Tufte in northwood has the best price so far. - - - Updated - - - it's at...

    galvanized boat trailer

    I do have 2 miles of gravel before I get to the highway. - - - Updated - - - I am only planning on keeping this boat another 3 years or so so not sure if the extra 400 is worth it. Not sure I would recover any of that when time to sell. - - - Updated - - - If I was going to keep this boat...

    galvanized boat trailer

    So I have a 1999 18.5' lund sitting on a very rusty trailer. Looking to replace the trailer and thinking of going galvanized. for a new shorelander bunk it is 2600 for painted and 3000 for gal. would you spend the extra money??? Gal doesnt look as pretty but I dont care on a 16 year old boat.

    bad crash on dl

    he was .178, three hours after the crash. I would say that qualifies as being shitfaced.

    First ever attempt at pulled pork.

    where do you buy these at? I have never smoked anything (meat that is) but my neighbor has a tragaer sitting in his garage that he never uses. Thought maybe I should borrow it...

    Portable houses

    I have the bigfoot. really like it when I take the kids with and dont plan on moving. the only thing I dont like about it are the anchors. I bought the drill adapter to put them in which IMO are a must.

    bad crash on dl

    I never even realized they could have been boating home from the bar. Kinda just assumed they were sitting around the campfire having a few and got the bright idea to launch the boat and take a cruise. does anybody know which was the case???

    bad crash on dl

    Worm, the article I read said that this happened 200 yards SW of haybale campground. I think that means it was flooded trees right along shore. If I remember correctly the trees there dont come out very far there so I am thinking they were thrown from the boat into very shallow water or even...
