Just visited my new Grizzly 1860 yesterday!

[Bill Doyle]

Just saw our new Grizzly 1860 in the "Nursery/Marina" yesterday! All the inner accoutrements (Console/Livewell/Rod&Gun Box/Dog Ladder) were still in boxes. I was very impressed at how well kitted out the trailer was. I'll post pics when I take possesion around the first week in June.

Sent the Dog Ladder back as whoever desinged it must be on CRACK! Ended up ordering on made by EDGE by Expidite from Macks Prairie Wings (duck hunting outfit in Ark.) which is actually designed for a dog's use! Anywho-I'm bringing my baby home this coming Tuesday and can't wait!

Hopefully I will be going back to my dealer this spring to have a used motor I have my eye on installed. I still to this day have water leaking in from where the livewell draws through the hull. For the last two seasons I have been stuck using borrowed tillers from two buddies who took pity on my poverty. Can't wait to fire that mother up for the first time!

OK!
So it looks like it's gonna be a 2004 50 HP Mercury 4 Stroke!
Pics will be forthcoming once finished.

Dropped the boat off 2 days ago for motor installation.
Will be in water for Memorial Day!

Just brought it home today with the Merc 50 4 stroke on it!
I must say, I expected more power.
Still happy though!
