Olderboater that is something I have come to realise as well. The tender will be used alot between going exploreing and fishing with the once in a...
NEO56, Hmmm sounds interesting to me. Seen some fish finders with side view and 3d so I kind of get the picture. Yea but who can put a price on...
Opcn, Thank you and that all does make good sense. I am starting to see why shallow drafts would not benifit as much as a heavier draft such as a...
