The hauler is used as a hunting rig alot. Me and dad can sit in the bed with lawnchairs side by side and we have a rack built that holds camo burlap and doubles as a rest.

I'm restoring my old 87 Marathon to use for hunting. I just plan on using it to retrieve game. Since it's a stinky old 2 stroke, I probably won't drive it out where I hunt. It would probably scare all the deer away with the smell.

i think what alot of people dont understand is that a deer can hear a electric just as good as a gas. when hunting i would want a gas so when your driving through the woods during hunting season others dont shoot you because you were so quiet and though you were a deer

The kit seems to be based on the Polaris 4X4 setup, you have to send them your rearend so they can install a pto shaft for the front drive. They don't sell to the general public so you'll need away around that. This is last years ad, i'm sure prices have changed

My biggest concern was the fact that they didn't put a seal back in the rear end for the shaft they added. The hole they drilled in the case was about 1/16" too big and it had oil running out of it.

just finished my first rebuild to hunt from. I think it came out great. increased motor from 3.2 hp to 11.4 hp. 588 amp controller, new hd coils, new #4 wiring, hd leaf springs, forward/reverse etc. The increase in torque was dramatic. Season here in alabama looks very good this year. We have gone 5 weeks of bow season and this will be our 3rd week of gun season. seeing many deer but no big ones yet. dan

Dan - do you have a 38' Topaz (the boat) or does the name have another meaning?
