damariboyz Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 Have been offered a good deal on a stacer 470 pro tournament. As my prefered location is Sydney harbour I could do with any feedback on this type of boat. It is an offer to good to refuse. Russ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jocool Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 same as Sputnik's 55209[/snapback] J.D....Mike has a Stessl Edgetracker. Snag has the Stacer PTE which I think is similar. Speaking of Stessl....Heard a story that Stessl has folded. There would be a lot of unhappy Stessl users out there I'm thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sputnik Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Quite correct, chaps - mine's the Edgetracker, Snag's is the Stacer. Nice rig, too - got livewells you could swim laps in and a dual console so your non-boater stays dry too. From memory, the only slight issue is the length of the rod lockers in the Stacer (I think they were 6' 6", but I'm sure you could ask to get them extended), and I don't know if there's anywhere to put a "stand up" rod rack to keep the rods while you're fishing. If you want an opinion, why not drop Snag a PM, Russ? (Unless, of course, it's him that's selling the boat!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 (edited) The Stacer will be able to handle any thing the harbour can throw at it with ease. Both the 470 pt and 470pte are v bottom hulls and have no problem pushing over a harbour swell. Edited June 28, 2005 by Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grantm Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Just another opinion, Im a big fan of the Stacer Elite. Hard to fault and should handle a bit of chop too. Im also pretty sure they have 7 foot rod lockers too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spooled Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Hi guys, Snag has the PT Elite and its a great set up. It will handle the Harbour chop no probs, my only concern was when stable and flicking at Pelagics in a bit of swell/chop its a bit different to your deeper style sides. Plenty of room 120lt Livewell plus rear Livewell, massive storage, and great ride as Mick has stated. It will do the job on the Harbour no probs, and by memory up to 62KPH with a 75 Optimax. Hopefully Sang will get on the Forums this week, as he has computer problems. Ivan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
