SKollmann Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 Matt . . . if your outfit is still available, would like to stop by and inspect. I'm also an ISA member as well as a member of Arlington Anglers and Prairie State Canoeists. Yes, my wife and I also paddle rivers when I'm not fishing. Initially, need to know gross trailer weight as well as tongue load weight of the trailer hitch when towing. Have other questions, but can defer until we talk. Available for a demo drive on water? Appears you live in Palatine . . . and I live in Northbrook. Shoot me your phone number and perhaps we can set up a meeting time. From the posted picture, looks like you've take good care of your boat. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKollmann Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 Birth of new grandson has taken priority this week, Matt . . . and my niece's wedding overtakes the weekend. Who's got time to fish?!? Will catch up with you next week. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKollmann Posted July 16, 2007 Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 Sure wish I could take your outfit off your hands, but checked my Ford Owners Manual and confirmed with the dealer that my Ford 500 will only tow 1,000 lbs. gross weight and tolerate 100 lbs. tongue weight . . . all due to my continuous speed transmission. Even the new Taurus and crossover Edge have the same towing limitations. That said, Matt . . . I've no alternative but to pass up the offer. Guess I'll remain a wader and float fisherman in my canoe until I retire in a few years, buy a unit equipped with heavier towing capabilities, and buy my retirement fishing boat.

Steve (aka "Paddlin Man") Hey Steve, sorry I missed this post. I have been fishing a ton and haven't had much time to check the computer. Yes, this would definitely be too big for your car. Thanks for the interest though, it was nice talking to you. The boat is still available if anyone in interested, I would like to get this sold before winter. I have a big project planned for my garage and would hate to make this boat see snow Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
