    I edited it lol definitely not a 250!!! Anyway, my Dad is retired and lives by the dam on Lake Norfork. I go down and fish the Owners tournament with him when its on Norfork. He owns the Sabre and offered it to me for trade. It only has 70 hours on it and I have put 65 of them on it when I visit lol. He told me the stipulation was that I bought a Cat. I have no problem with that, but there are not many running the tourneys I fish up there and dont know the guys that do run them. I have fished all the Michigan BFLs for 11 years, last years Everstart, and the previous FLW Open out there as well as many of the larger team events that are held on St Clair or the Detroit River/Erie. I have 25 years of experience on the big water. The 21 foot Tritons run very well on that water. They are a very soft ride and handle the waves good. I learned a long time ago that you have to be smart running that water. If you run 40 miles in 5 footers you need a trolling motor, electronics, big motor, etc to fish when you do get there lol. I do not run hard on the big water, but I run smart. My Tritons have held together well, although unlike the Rangers I see, I do get a lot of stress cracks. They are only cosmetic, but I dont like the looks of them. I dont know if I can swing a Jaguar, but with my Dads offer I may be able to swing it. The only way to truly understand how a boat handles out there is to get it out in the stuff. Thanks to everyone for the replies.

    Do you know what the motor height was with the fury? Did you have a hydraulic plate?

How many hours on the motor?ThanksSorry, I didnt see the question until now. I think the motor has around 500 hours. I know this is a lot, but most of them are from cruising St Clair, the Detroit River and the St Clair River at around 30 mph.

    Did you ever get this figured out? I have a 2014 Puma doing the same thing.
