$6,000 for everything except the new battery and seat. Y'all are killing me, that's $500 off! I need this boat gone since I don't use it anymore. I am exclusively using my kayak for fishing now since it is too quick and easy to fish some of these smaller private lakes around my house. Nothing is wrong with the boat, motor, trailer or any of the gear... it just needs a new home since I've started fishing out of a kayak. I believe it was a fair price at $6,500 and at $6,000 it is even sweeter! Let me know if you have any questions or just want to purchase it before your neighbor does...

I assume that you are joking... There are no dents on the boat. What you are seeing is where the sheet metal has been welded to the internal frame and the angle of the sun along with the slight angel of the metal might give it that appearance. but I assure you when you are there beside the boat looking/inspecting it, you will see what I mean and that there are no dents on the boat. Just sun, camera angle and the way Tracker welds their boats. It was bought that way.
Also, the boat has never been on any Antarctica excursions breaking through any ice nor have any ice bags been banged on the boat. She has been babied all her life and only driven around the block on Sunday to Church to watch the fishing that goes on behind the Church on Sunday afternoons...

How fast does it run with 1 person in it?
How fast you ask... Faster than Michael Phelps can swim!
I have never clocked it or held a GPS up to see, but I know that it travels faster than I care to go most of the time* and even with gear and a family of four, I've never even noticed a reduction in speed (there isn't a lot of weight in the boat itself because of it's open floor plan). But keep in mind that of the 13 hours that I've run the motor, only about 30 minutes or so have been wide open because of the break in period. I've followed the manual for the break in period. So it's plenty fast for my needs, but it isn't a speed boat. If speed is what you are looking for perhaps a heavier fiberglass bass boat that would be more designed to handle the beating that a 300 hp could deliver. :-)
* On Sardis Lake in Mississippi where the wind and wave is often noticeable and felt at higher speeds.

This is a very nice looking boat and I have fished out of a Grizzly Tracker and really like them and the open floor plan. I am just worried that I might not be happy with the 20 hp, I fish the Tenn River and sometimes run a good ways. If I knew how fast it would run it would give me something to think about. I currently have an old Lowe 16 x 48 with a 40 hp and it is plenty fast for me, but I am not sure how fast it runs. I have been wanting to upgrade to a 1754 Grizzly or 1756 G3 and was thinking 40 or 50 hp. I also fish out of a Kayak more than my boat so I some days wonder if I even need a boat. Definitely not interested in the big bass boat and gas bill that goes along with it, I have been there and done that, but I may be hunting more in the 40 to 60 hp range. I like your boat and have been trying to decide do I need to call and make a drive.
