get a nice two man I have a yukon, build yourself a smitty sled and put it on top. and pull it will drag easier than a jet sled across snow or ice
Building a sled form my sleds sled seemed wrong to me.If your pulling it out by hand, go with the lightest solution possible. Anything else can be modded to your liking.
Clam Kenai with no factory seat/brackets; bucket & foam/3 rods/heater/tackle/bait and a 6" hand auger = 52#It pulls like its 80# though, I swear. Whatever Clam engineer came up with that sled design should be flogged unconscious with a frozen sheephead - then revived - then beaten again.Love the space/room, can deal with the weight, hate the pull. Wish a Rover 1 had been available instead, but not upset with the purchase.
Get a pair of skis and make yourself a "Smitty" sled. It gets the tub off the surface and makes pulling a flip-over shanty a dream.(Image removed from quote.)My version of the "Smitty" sled.(Image removed from quote.)My Kenai out on Lake St. Clair.
Steellord,Do you happen to have a picture of your sled set up. I am really interested in seeing how that effects the canvas.
Anyway, it worked great most of the time. The exception was if there was deep snow, when one of the skis would run into the tracks made by my footprints and the entire sled would dump over. But from what I see here a lot of these aren't much wider than my sled. Anybody else who uses skis have that problem in deep snow?
