In fact, the Margay has a bit more front deck space than the Sabre. Here are the upgrades I was going to do to the Margay: Torsion axle suspension on the trailer; color upgrade on the console and fenders; upgrade electronics to at least 7″ units with side imaging on the console unit and DI on the bow unit; Add the recirculation option; LED lights and backup lights; Pole and step for front of trailer; I think a butt seat for the front is optional on the Margay…depends on how you fish; 1/2″ pin stripe in color of your choice (otherwise, its black); Hambys keel guard; passenger rod strap; I like Minn Kota, so was going to do the Fortrex, but thats a personal preference.You may or may not want all of those things…they do add up. Also, I would get the 150 engine, regardless of brand. Hotfoot is also a personal preference. Blinker trim is also nice. If it is not standard, the transducer protectors.Wow….Look like my Margay is going to get pretty expensive.

    I would really like to see the Margay on the 90″ overall width. If you do not have any pictures can you tell me how many inches the boat will be higher than a normal framed trailer?Do you have any pictures of the Sabre on a normal and narrow frame trailer?

    I am 57 so no resale here. This will be my last boat and first fiberglass rig. I am fine with low 60s.

    Just checking again to see if there are any Margays in New Jersey or Eastern Pennsylvania before I make a road trip to Rhode Island.

Likely our youtube video you saw, yes a Margay with a dual console is pretty rare but also pretty cool. Every client that has seen it, cant believe how deep the glove box is. Yes, it was your video. Very well done. Nice walk through.

    Still very impressive with the 150. Looking forward to the results of the new 23 fury.

    I have a cutoff switch for my trolling motor and one for the electronics. Best to have everything powered down while in storage.
