rekon im taking another dive - kochanut - 08-19-2010

going to go ahead and get the scadden avenger, that way i can put a 5 horse, electric, and sonar all on it and hit much bigger waters. hell i could even troll willard if i wanted to get hammered. if i drown look for all the floating beer cans, at the end youll find me. FG, thoughts on your's? pros/cons?

Did you get the Renegade or the Escape?

You should be able to put and electric on either of them. I have even thought about putting a small 4 stroke on my Renegade, maybe 3 horsepower. I don't fish enough larger lakes to justify it yet though.

Not any cons that I'm aware of Zach. Go for it. The Avenger
will take an 8 hp with the hd rear deck if I'm not mistaken. That's also the 12'er. I wouldn't mind having that one either.......X7 frame which is just a little wider too than mine.

I am thinking, you should have gone with the Rampage. It is 10'6" just like out X5, then for a couple of hundred or so, buy the X5 frame.
Then you could have one just like Mojo's AND a frameless model for hike ins.

Plus that floor would be a plus with the gas motor. Mojo is trying to figure out a floor for his because of the spray coming up while cruzing.

Just saying....the price of a frame, or the price of a whole LARGE boat.

Of course, I am a woman and my 10'6" X5 is allot for me to handle. I think even more than my 11' Cardiac with the thinner pontoons.
