Frabil Speed Shak Cub Weight

[lefty2053]

So I looked it up on Sportsmans Guide and it say's this is 72 Lbs. Is that correct? Seems like a lot of weight compared to the Shappell 3000DX which is 44 lbs. I have a chance of buying one for cheap but I don't want that much weight.

it is discontinued, so for that reason alone i'd stay away from it. also, it is very awkward to move it after it's setup if there's snow. i own the dx3000. never gets used.
i found this statement below from another site:

Last Year I purchased a Shappel 3000 DEuxe. The Deluxe has the nice Canvas, not a tarp. I like it, but it is a bit awkward to drag. This year I am gonna try the skiis that are available. The Frabill Speed Shack is nice too, a friend of mine owns one. Also a bit awkward when pulling and WEIGHS A TON!! The weight of this is what kept me away.. Put some gear in it and pulling is next to impossible.

Yea I told the guy I would pass on it. He said he only used it one time and it has been in his garage for several years now. It was only $30 but I don't want that much weight.

maybe flip it?

It would be a good flip item but it is 45 Miles away.

Then it's a better SKIP item!!

have them meet you half way then it will be 6 bucks for gas or half price. also, ask him to take a smaller price because yer flipping it. if he takes 25 then its break even.
