Anybody know anything about this boat?



There's a dealer not too far away from me that has one in stock with a ProDrive on it.

They look good but seem to be way over priced, if that was the right price I was looking at, more then $16,000 for a 1748.

The SeaArks I've had have been good, tough boats but when you subtract off the price of the ProDrive and galv. trailor that puts the boat at $7000 to $8000 depending on what options the motor has.

Anyone else seen one of these?

I've been looking at the 170 for a month now and it seems to b a good boat but I'm waiting on the 180 (1852) that's coming Putin November before I make my mind up. I've got prices on the 170 with timber runner package only and trailer for under 7k from all the dealers I've called. The best price I got was $5650 for boat and trailer. I would still like to know someone running one to know the performance #'s with stock motor.

i paid 6300 out the door with trailer.
Only flaw is false transum and the seam on the bottom
boat scoots pretty good and holds a laod better than what the tag says it will.

I was also wondering if it would be ok to notch out the transom on that boat to make it a short transom? its 15" wide, and my mount is 7.5" wide.

It runs 32 to 33 with a couple people I run a mb hd 5500. I have seen 34 on the GPS by myself a few times but not consistantly. The bottom was pretty smooth when I got it. I run over alot of shit tho. Its held up pretty good. I wouldnt say its hooked but its got a lil wave on it from a pipe we crossed a.couple times. Ive run stumps,shell. Logs pipes. Jumped leveys Andi thought the bottom would look worse than it does by now.

I dont see why you wouldnt be able to cut down the transom. Its just aluminum. Its does have some plastic filler shit in there though. I dont think it would be a problem cutting.

Is it just me or does the guy in the video seem to think that Seaark just came up with everything that everyone on here has known all along on their own? It looks like a fine boat, but I felt like he thought he was showing me the first ever hunt deck or "hunt step" as he calls it. Maybe they could come up with something that rolls next to help me carry around heavy loads while exerting less energy. They could call it the Seaark "wheel" maybe... :roll:
