Have any of you tried to pull with a snowmobile or Atv yet and how did it hold up with the trap doors in bottom of sled, leaks, breakage, etc.  Thank you.

Those look good but I wouldn't pull it behind anything with out making a smitty sled to put it on top of.

I pulled mine behind a atv in a bean field at 20mph while it was set up, handled it perfectly. It even may have caught a little air over a couple of drifts. lol The biggest problem I have with water is from getting in and out of it with boots on, pulling the transducer up, and landing fish. The trap doors are well designed, the attachment hardware is sufficient, but could be improved on, as can anything. I figure if I start having problems with them I will figure out a "stronger" way of doing it. But for now, I have no worries about them.

Thanks guys.

Can you fit two guys in there or is it more of a one man shanty?

You can get two guys if they are smaller. It's more of a one man for me, but I am 6' and 265lbs. It fits me and my 7yo daughter well, or even me and my 110lb wife. But someone my size and another average guy wouldn't work quite so well.
