    Try Boatcovers.com. I just use mine for a cover and not trailering. They have different kinds for just covers to ones for trailering.

    You can look on the Skeeter website at the 1850 and see the one picture in the gallery that shows a kicker also. Should work fine.

    That is why the transom is made that way. They call it a 2nd transom on the 1880 and now the 1850. Mine is mounted directly on it so no need for a jack plate or panther mount.

    Just had surgery on a lower herniated disc in the middle of March. 35 min. surgery and home by 7pm the same day. Had severe nerve pain for a week at the end of January and missed that week of work. Went to Doc. to get some pain meds and did some PT also. Everything started to feel better after about 10 days. MRI showed a herniated disc and the neurosurgeon said a quick little procedure could take care of my trouble. Well I decided to do it and have not looked back. About a 1″ incision just off center of back is all that it was. Felt 100% at about 7 days but I was up and moving about the next day. Really wanted to get fixed up for the summer fishing season and did not want to go through that pain again as I wouldn’t wish it on many people.

    I have been in the 1880 with the F150 and have one with the 200 HPDI. Both are great motors as well as bulletproof. The 200 will get you more than 2 mph than the 150 as my buddy’s runs 48mph and mine will run 55mph. That is loaded with all our gear for tournaments. I am very happy with the gas mileage of the 200 as it is not that much worse than the 150. The 200 makes a little bit more noise at wide open but they are both quiet in my opinion. I really like the punch and quickness of the 2 stroke. The 150 does an excellent job of getting up on plane and getting you down the lake too. My vote is still for the 200 HPDI. The bad thing about putting the current 200 4 stroke on the back is that you can’t put a kicker on too. If the new Offshore or SHO(25in shaft) comes out in a 200 that may be the ticket. I really feel that having the 200 HPDI on the WX 1880 is the best of both worlds comparing the WX1850 and WX1900.

    I have seen the new models at a dealership in Minot, ND and have talked to a dealer in MN and they also have the 1850 and 1900. Skeeter’s website is always WAY behind. When I was looking for the then new 1880 it took forever to get the pictures and specs on their site. Would think that they would at least have their site up to date when they are shipping the new models out to dealers.

    Bought a 6′ and 6’3″ for jigging last year and they are very nice. I have 5 other G Loomis rods and the Crucials are right up there with them. They are light and very sensitive and the price is right in my opinion. Try one out and you will be surprised.

    If you look about 4 or 5 questions down, the one that says “gps question” it will give you the answer you are looking for. I have mine this way also and it works great.

    That’s OK for not golfing anymore. I quit it so I had more time for fishing. A guy at work always says that golfing is for people who can’t fish. I alway laugh at that one

    Poker, I have the Skeeter 1880 and it is an awesome boat. The ride is great, lots of room, excellent layout with tons of storage and with the 200 HPDI and T-8 it is all you need. The 1850 is set up more for the skiing and run-around in my opinion.
