Any idea when the details on the predator will be posted? At 8 lbs is is the hull made from a new config then the escape or is the weight savings only from the oars being gone and any change? Looks very interesting to say the least. I hope product info gets posted on their site soon.

[cool][#0000ff]I'm also interested in getting a better look at the Predator. The video did not show a good pic of the layout. From what I could see there does not appear to be room for a battery behind the seat.[/#0000ff]

I have not seen it, but heard tale of a new motor mount. Might have the answer there.

[cool][#0000ff]I'll be patient. Wait and see. But if there is not enough room for a battery I don't need a motor mount. Got that covered anyway.[/#0000ff]

The steelheader is interesting. It looks like the standing platform retracts maybe? and when it retracts then the pegs are used. The Pontoons appear to be big like in the 20" range have you heard? Looks like he is trying to get into a different market with those boats. He has a lot of new stuff. Ron

I'm really enjoying the World Navigator XL for solo fishing, and this summer we floated the Green 6 times in the Assault XX. Fishing was first priority, but its hard to beat the beauty of the Green and the fun of running rapids, dodging rocks, and watching for big fish in the aquarium-like water.
The Assault is easy to haul in the back of our RAV4, launches faster than many boats we saw (pull it off the roof rack and into the water, sufficient room to haul 2 people, food and fishing gear for a 12-hour day, and a breeze to row and maneuver for long, drag-free drifts. At the end of the day, we let the air our, fold it in half, throw it in the RAV and head for dinner at the Snag.

[cool][#0000ff]Cool. If they have a display model please try to get the inside measurements of the compartment behind the seat. Thanks.[/#0000ff]
