  1. May be odd man out but I actually prefer a 2 stoke, long as it's well maintained. One critical thing I've found is use Carbon Gard or some other product that prohibits ring sticking and cylinder scoring, very common problem with all 2 strokes. I prefer the power characteristics of 2 strokes, better out of the hole.
  2. An Eagle is fine, but the grandkids like to hang out in the cabin sometimes so the extra room would be good. I'll watch the Watertown boat but it's about 2x what I want to spend and imo way overpriced for the year and what it is, just my $.02!
  3. Thanks guys, I'd seen those 2, the Watertown boat isn't far, but though nice, it's way over-priced, imo. I've been in touch with the Buffalo boat's owner already. My own boat's sale is pending and if it goes through next weekend I'll be talking to him again, meantime I'd prefer a Sabre to an Eagle (larger cabin) and will keep looking in the meantime, but the Eagle could possibly work OK too. Thanks again for the input!

  9. Hey from Binghamton, long time boater & fisherman, closing in on 70. Just came across this LOU site, not much of a computer user so was ignorant of it! Mostly a Lake Champlain boater now since we got a camp there 10 yrs ago but used to be on LO around Sandy Pond, and on Oneida and Cayuga sometimes too. Now selling our bigger & heavier glass 22' ProSport looking for a lighter easier to launch & trailer aluminum outboard cuddy so we can trailer her back to NY more often. We had 19 ft cuddy Starcrafts back in the '80s and '90s, they were very flexible & easy to use boats for fishing and family... so howdy from Roger in Bingo
  10. I agree!! They went out of business in '09 in the boat market depression but they made a Grady comparable hull just not as fancy. The Co. owner was a former Grady exec. She's amazing in any conditions and in nice shape. Typical price seems to be around 11-12k but they're not well known outside of FL. Hopefully be a good buy for someone.
