AGREED,

Once again..

Yep, 600's w XR's...Not at all. I dont abuse it and its been great on my lake. Now, in rough water it might be a diff story. I'm guessing here but I would think the issues on 42's w XR's is the Executioner and Lighting....much heavier than the PR

Thank you pm203!

We can get you into the new 41 Pantera in a sit down configuration (like some of the old Apaches, he, he), with reliable 700s, in the triple digits, and in the affordable range....it won't matter whether you are in a lake or outside in rough stuff......
