you'll like it. Lund is a good brand.
Mine is a 1950 with a 5.0 l inboard.
Winterizing it tonight.... :(
RHYBAK, great looking boat,but if that's your wife in the boat she doesn't look too happy.
Nice boat Rhybak - Congrats!
I am in the process of working a trade-in now for my 11 year old Princecraft Pro166 with a 90hp 4stroke merc... she's been good to me but it might be time to move on.

I saw a nice LUND posted at Carlton Place Marina
Oarin.
She is very happy with the boat.
I caught her deep in thought with the Salesgirl.
I am headed towards more of a bass boat (most of what I do in the summer, other than my Kipawa trip is bass fishing in shallow weedy bays so I don't want a boat with such a deep hull).
I still like the full windshield/protection so I found a Stratos 486 is my favourite... the deal is not finalized, but should be by the end of next week. I have a holding deposit on it now so it is premature to say it is mine, but darn close.
The link below shows the exact boat - a 2015 stratos 486 with a 150 Evinrude on it - the dealer filmed this last winter when they rented the old Target location at the local mall and had a boat show for 4 months...they didn't sell it all year so they continued to mark it down on price... and they are offering me a very fair trade in value on my Princecraft. An electric motor and a 9 inch fish finder will be installed as part of the deal.

Very nice looking boat.
Hi John,
Great looking ride! I like the size of your garage as well ;)
Jay
Congrats on your new boat too Greg. Looks sharp!
Jay
I was thinking the same thing if that's your garage.
Very nice John cant wait to see it
Agreed on the garage and the boat, both look great!
LOL
I can only wish that I had a garage like that.
The sales office was getting ready to shrinkwrap the boat as I was reviewing it to purchase.
After I bought it ,they put it away till spring
Nice rig, Mr. Rhybak. And I appreciate the photo image on two counts. First, when asked what I want from Christmas, I'll just show people that picture. Second, when my not-so-young kids wonder what kind of things make a grown person 'spoiled', I'll show them that picture.
;)
Congrats...it really is a beauty...dream boat of a lifetime....
Thank you all.
A terrible time of year to buy it since I won't see it again till March , but it really gives me something to really look forward to.
Now to shop for fishfinders and downriggers.
Nice boat Rhy, wish I had a garage like that.
But I have one advantage with my boat; it doesn't get put away for a season. The niceties of living so far south where our water stays liquid during the chillier months.
(I'm not saying cold; because my cold is y'all's chilly) :)
