Was something wrong?

[crappie1133]

Hello everybody, I love this forum . I read it every night. I have a Tracker Panfish 17 that I bought from a friend. Has a Mercucy 40 horse 4 stroke and stick steering. Its longer, wider, and is wider across the bottom than the Panfisher 16. I like this boat and was wondering why Tracker didn't offer it for 2010. Hope nothing is wrong with it. I really like the boat Installed a Lowrance x510c depthfinder with transducers on the back and trolling motor and a switch to change from front to back. Love reading everyones thoughts and trying to learn something about Crappie fishing. Thats about all we can do with this weather.Thanks for any comments.

Welcome from middle Tennessee. Dedawg, I went the other direction, selling my 16' stick boat and buying a 17'8" bass boat. Loved my beer can but this works better for me. Reacts slower and I lose my balance less.

Skeetbum, I went the way of dedawg. Sold a Fisher Marine Grey Thunder Bass boat with 40 hp Evinrude. I found that climbing up on those swival seats at 69 was NOT GOOD. It was a great boat though. Different strokes for different folks . Some people like one flavor of ice cream and some like another, but it's all good. Hope you catch a boat load in your new boat

I have an 96 pan fisher and the only problem is I would like for it to be 16' longer so I could get all my crappie (stuff) to fit!!! Love my boat, you will enjoy your boat. Welcome to crappie fishing.
