I am going to part with my baby this year. I have not fished any tournaments in 3 years now and I have a new baby girl that needs a more family friendly boat.
This boat has served me well for the 14 years that I have owned it. It handles big water very well. I have used it on Mille Lacs quite a bit. It has a very dry ride with one of the best hole shots on ANY boat. My friends call it the Rocket.
The motor has been bullet proof. Never a problem with it. Always starts right up and runs like a champ. I just put new carb kits in the motor, this is the only work that has been done to it except for regular maintaince.
About the boat:
1995 Stratos 285 Pro XL DC 18'-10", beam 89" 1995 Johnson Fast Strike 150 w/ss prop 1995 Stratos Trail trailer with surge brakes and w/ removable tongue & lifetime lic. Trailer tires are only 1 year old w/ 2 spares 2 full sized rod lockers, 5 below deck storage compartments, 1 cooler, 2 livewells and a huge glove box Full instrumentation in the dash 3 bank,15amp per bank Dual Pro Professional Series on board charger Boat will also include all electronics(4 fish finders, one w/gps) and bow mount trolling motor. Also included is a brand new, NIB, Cabela's ratcheting boat cover Top speed I ever hit was 67mph, on GPS Average top speed when boat is fully loaded is 58mph I expect with the new carb kits it will hit over 60 mph again with no problem This is a sweet looking boat! I still get compliments all the time on how sharp it is.
Thanks for looking,
Mike
