Yeah it was slower, but It felt like there was so much more room. I felt like I was in a mini boat. It felt a ton more stable and seems safer to be in if I go offshore a bit.



If I set up the compass the way I wanted with the reverse drive (there is a mod kit), H Rails, Rectangular hatch, bucket, seal, anchor trolly, Track 2 cart wheels, medium fish kill bag, and not adding the FF or rod holders but subtracting the Fred hall show discount it would cost maybe about $700 less that the Pro Angler.



I have 7 days to make up my mind, but I’m pretty sure that I’m going with the Pro Angler. I know that it’s going to be heavier, but I will be loading it up in the bed of my truck. I’m going to see how well it will sit on two padded auto creepers that way I could push it out the garage and lift it up maybe 3’









It would


Keep in mind that the outback is in the middle of these two.
