| Bob Lloyd at Mr. Marine says it best. Slap the water with your hand, flat. Then hit the water with the edge of your hand. Which stings more? |

| Gordy,
I did hear however that the new 2060 for 2007 is wider I thought they said that it has a 93" beam I might be mistaken but I was talking with a gentleman at the Fleet Tourney this weekend and he mentioned that as he was looking into the 2060. He was currently running an 1890 an older one and liked it because of the storage. We will have to wait and see when the new boats are unveiled.

| I myself am stepping into an 1890 in spring. Currently I am fishing out of a 2060 that my brother owns. From past experience, you can run about twice the speed in a Tuffy as you could in a Ranger. The first tournament we fished out of the 2060 we had to run from hat island back to Menominee. We gave ourselves about 40 minutes because there were 4 footers. We made it in twenty five. We were running just on plane as we would do in the Ranger and it was rough. We pushed it up to the forties and it was a nice skip home. With the narrower boat does come some set backs. The room when running boards and less stability when trolling. But the backsaving ride in rough water is well worth it. Topping it off we installed some smooth move seat mounts just before Merc Nat, and it is a cadilac on the water at any speed. You can get the smooth moves through TFM Promotions at a good price with shipping included. As for the 1890 I will let you know in spring. |

Location: Manitowoc, WI | If you're looking for seats, look no further than Lake Tamer Suspensions. They're a definite upgrade from Smooth Moves. They can be found at www.laketamer.com or by phone at 920-758-3000. |

| Jerry,
I normally do not touch these posts at all, but this time I must ask you for your sales pitch on why the Laketamer is so much better then my Smooth Moves seat. mounts? He along with thousands of others is obviously very happy with his mounts the way I read it. It is great that you promote Pat`s product he is a great guy from what I know of him, but if you are going to downgrade mine please explain why so we all know the answers. Good business is good business.
