Outfitter1 I bought that tracker from a man in South Carolina in about 2010. Sinve I had it It has been a duck/bowfishing boat that probably averages 60-80 trips a year. Most of that has been in shallow water and still doesn't leak a drop. I will never sell that boat. I'll have it until I rip it open one day then hope somehow to find another 92 tracker sportsman.

I have a perfect boat. The reason I say that is because I hunt and fish from my boat so I wanted one boat to do both. My solution was a G3 1860 SC with a 90hp. I have the casting deck, bow mount spot lock trolling motor, SI/GPS electronics and a bait tank that I mount on the back platform for hybrid fishing.
I mounted the motor on a setback plate and with tilt I can get to most places my buddy can with his mud motor. I can easily run in 12” or less but I keep an aluminum prop and a spare because I manage to damage one every year on something. It is foam filled and high sides so can deal with the waves that our lakes produce.
I also have an Avery pop up blind that I use when the water is higher now I just use it as a taxi to get to where I want to hunt.
