Default Picking up a 2011 Lund fury SS

I made an offer on a new 2011 Lund 1600 Fury SS with a 40 ELPT, any one have any experience with this boat.

Let me know what you guys think. Im wondering how well it will handel rough water too. I was looking at spending in the 13-16K mark but I can find a Lund in that range I want I could save a few k going with this boat as well

Thumbs up

As I was growing up we had a 1973 16' Lund extra wide and extra deep and that unit was often on big water with white cresters. It was a great boat, many a moose came home in that boat. We had a 1962 40 hp Evinrude.

IT WAS A GREAT BOAT.

REEEAAALLLL NICE BOAT ! I have a 15 Legend Angler with the 40 merc
on it and I absolutley love it. Big dif is that mine is about 8" more
narrow and that has its disadvantages. Jump to a 16 in alost every brand
and the boats get wider .
I'm a bit more timid with "big water " meaning that rough isnt my deal but this lund 16 should do the job well.
You'll love the merc 4 stroke . Its unreal on how little fuel it uses.

Congrats.... thats one nice boat at a real good price !!!

AAAAHHHHHHHHHHh I upgraded and found what I really wanted from Tracy at car,RV and marine in Red Deer (great guy and team there!) and a great local price to boot.

First Boat down close to mine with the full shield and seating however no downriggers and trolling mortor >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I love the full front shield, great canopy, and lots of room. I also ordered two extra seats for the back so it comfortably seats 4 behind the windshield and under the canopy and I can always remove them for the extra room room. extras can sure add up quick and with financing and taxes I wasn't prepared for the 30+K price tag but who cares the world in ending next year anyways
