I launched my kayak today at 4:15 PM at Sandy Creek in Hamlin. Paddled out to 50 FOW and started letting out a lead core with a Natural Born Killer spoon. A nice brown ate the spoon in 67 FOW, before I got all 10 colors in the water. I fished that depth for a few more minutes and landed 2 small "skipper" kings. I trolled out to 120 FOW with no marks and no bites. I stopped and dropped my Fish Hawk TD and found the thermocline was 50 feet down. I continued out to 140 FOW with no more marks or action. I then went back to 100 FOW and put on a cowbell rig. I picked up 2 lakers in short order. The biggest was 34 inches long and was able to swim back into the deep after being released! I got 1 more skipper king in 75 FOW before heading back to shore before sunset. Not a bad evening. Sent from my SM-G991U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Engine hours 2,300 on one and 2,000 on the other. Yes, professionally serviced. I kept records of all service since I bought it. No survey since I've owned it. Very solid transom. Super clean, dry & spotless. Reason for selling: No family around to enjoy it with me anymore. No plans for another power boat. Probably will go back to the kayak.

My Weekender is 10'-6" wide. It handles rough water quite well. But, since the deck is more than a foot above water level, you definitely rock around when trolling perpendicular to the waves. Sent from my SM-G950U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I have a 1991 Sea Ray 280 Weekender. It was already set up for trolling when I bought it. The downriggers are mounted on pedestal mounts, probably since the gunwals are somewhat narrow. It is a nice trolling platform. Hopefully this gives you some ideas. Sent from my SM-G950U using Lake Ontario United mobile app
