Yea the more I hear the more I like it lol. Only thing is I like the swivel chairs better than the bench but I may just update them down the road anyway.

Yea I am really having a hard time decideing between the otter wild 2 or the frabill trekker. I like the looks amd the thicker canvas on the otter but the price and the seats are very attractive on the frabill.

no quad but when I am on lakes with a long walk I would drive the pickup out if possible. If loaded weight becomes a problem i will go buy a jet sled and have the kid pull some of it lol. I currently have an old frabill hideout and honestly have never really had a problem pulling it with all my gear on unless its up hill once i am off the ice. Hyfax will be going on whichever shack i buy that I know.

The tube system in the frame is superior IMO with the Otter.  As well as the tow bar set up.   I have the old green one...prob 5 years now.  The only complaint is the windows....o2 of my 3 have cracks.  But in defense of otter....when it hits 15 below, anything that is flexible will be tested beyond it's normal wear and tear.  I recommend Otter sleds.
