LUND/GENMAR 2450

[mdrducks]

Lund fan considering upgrading to a 2450 but have not been able to find any in central PA.  Does anyone have one on Ontario/Finger Lakes I could take a look at and/or possibly fish out of.  I'm considering a larger boat and there are some great trophys out there cheap, but hard for me to stray from a lund.  I normally fish out of oak.

 

Anyone who has run one care to weigh in?  There are some basically new Trophys in central pa set up to fish... the guys ran out of time, money, or interest.  Old lund or newer trophy?  I'd like something I can sleep on.  Thoughts?

Had a 2450 for about 5 years.  It is a solid boat and trailerable.  I had the 4.3L V6 Mercruiser and it performed well but was slightly underpowered given the weight of equipment we tend to get on our trolling boats.  Switched to a 4 blade prop and made a significant improvement.

Vent windows were not mounted well and came out twice while trailering.  Not much air movement under the hardtop on hot days.  Two issues that I really didn't like were:

1) the floor is wood and there is no direct drain in the cockpit (goes into bilge) for blood, slime.etc. I had to have the floor replaced due to rot. 

2)  Galvanic corrosion is an issue on aluminum boats docked in the water and mine got pitted below the water line, mostly on the transom (fixable but still an issue).

Many positive compliments at the launch ramp.

Here are a couple pics of mine.  If you want more info, PM me.
