Hello All,

         New Guy here. I am the proud owner of a 2021 Tracker Classic XL in black diamond with a 50 hp Merc. It was a birthday present in early Aug. and man, was I surprised. It is replacing a 1986 Basstracker Tournament TX17 that I had for about 6 or 7 years. It’s pretty much the same boat, only a little wider and no rivets to leak. And of course it’s more modern. I haven’t done to much to it yet, but that will change. I installed my Helix 7s from my old boat, an hour meter, and a 12 gallon aluminum fuel tank. I fish Lake Mohave and it’s a big lake. I like having the security of having enough fuel to get home. The boat handles better than my old boat and is a bit faster. My old boat had a 40 hp Suzuki 2 stroke and burned gas like crazy. I love this boat.

Welcome, nice boat.

You fish Mead also ?

Hi Bird,

         No, I don’t fish Lake Mead. It’s been very low and there are too many reports of people hitting things that used to be under 70 feet of water. Very sad. It’s also a little big for my boat. I launch out of Katherine’s Landing in Mohave, so I can stay in the narrow part of the lake and avoid the basin. I have seen pretty big waves in that water. I don’t know if you are familiar with Mohave , but I rarely venture past the power lines. Don’t need to. Plenty of fish in that lake.

Hello Log Catcher and thank you. 

Just got done venting my aluminum fuel tank. Waiting for the the EPA police to kick my door in.
