Default Lund 1775 pro v

I am looking for a new boat this spring and I was down at the Lund dealer and was looking at the Lund pro V 1775 with a 150hp honda. Is this boat too big for the lakes around edmonton or should I get a little smaller boat ??

As I have an 1850 I guess I would have to say no it's not to big. Of course that depends on what you want to do with it. If you want to launch at places that only have sand or mud launches (like Seba) then perhaps it's to big otherwise no.

What do you want the boat for?

had one just like that, you will be pleased with the performance and the way it handles the water. It will pull tubers and skiers very well

I am sure you know this already; The Tyee does come with a ski pole and is only 3 inches longer. Perhaps a bit better family boat but not quite as good a fishing boat. The reason I mention the ski pole is in case you get a mounted kicker etc back there. The pole holds the tow ropes up out of the way.

Enjoy the new toy and leave a couple fish in the lake for the rest of us.

The boat in the showroom at Riverside is the one you are talking about I assume.....

That's a buety and will have lots of power and the price is spectacular.

Great choice .....
