Super User Jig Man Posted February 14, 2008 Super User Posted February 14, 2008 Based on the info given I'd take the Champion: tmotor size, engine size and every Skeeter I have ever been in should have come with spurs. Quote
Super User cart7t Posted February 14, 2008 Super User Posted February 14, 2008 80" beam on that Champion? Quote
Super User Tin Posted February 14, 2008 Super User Posted February 14, 2008 80" beam on that Champion? Ya??? But no matter what, the Champion. Quote
tntitans21399 Posted February 14, 2008 Posted February 14, 2008 Champion. Even if they came with the same everything (motor, troling motor, etc...) just being the Anniversary Edition would make it better. Quote
IneedAnewScreenName9886691 Posted February 14, 2008 Posted February 14, 2008 I am bias ............................................ CHAMPION BROTHER! Quote
Super User cart7t Posted February 15, 2008 Super User Posted February 15, 2008 80" beam on that Champion? Ya??? But no matter what, the Champion. I just did a quick check. Yep, it's an 86" beam. Very similar to my old 168V. You can plop a 150 on those and have quite a rocketship under you. Great little boats for getting into tight places. They handle the rough stuff pretty good though my 184 put that 16 1/2 footer to shame. No doubt, the Champion is the boat to get. Quote
Super User Sam Posted February 15, 2008 Super User Posted February 15, 2008 Catt, Looks like the guys champion Champion. So which one will you get? Quote
Super User Catt Posted February 15, 2008 Author Super User Posted February 15, 2008 I'm just toying with the idea of restoring one; both were my favorites back when they were new. Both are in excellent conditions and apart from upgrading electronics it will be an easy task but I'll most likely pass for now. I'm actually considering a 2005 Xpress X18 with an Evinrude 150 HO; too dang many choices. Quote
Super User Jig Man Posted February 15, 2008 Super User Posted February 15, 2008 A friend of mine has that boat with a 115 4 stroke Yammy. It is a good fishing boat with the lift and ride of glass. It just blows around in wind like most alum. Quote
Super User Catt Posted February 15, 2008 Author Super User Posted February 15, 2008 There are so many fine boats available today it make me crazy and last weekend I went to a boat show, huh! That didn't help Quote
maxke01 Posted February 16, 2008 Posted February 16, 2008 I'd be happy with either. The champion sounds better to me though ;D Quote
michbass Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 yeah the champ sounds like the best deal. Pretty good price, take a look at them in person yet? Quote
