This was all i could find really. There isn't much for specs on their website. I want to know the specs of the spool and how much line it can hold.
I also just sent a message to Robin and hopefully they will get back to me soon... Ill let you know. |

Rugrat, the motor does unbolt so you can slide it back. i am running 500 feet of thick strecthy rope on mine and have more room. if you use 7/64 amsteel you could fit a lot of line on it. i am just stoked to get my amsteel _________________ -andrew- |

Andrew MassIVE, Thanks man. I have amsteel so i should be good to go.
How does the frame look? Is it pretty solid? Worth the money?
Edit: Do you have the wood core frame or the Starboard? |

erh...
Wrong...
...Chris Crafts Do fall apart... I owned a 1962 Chris Craft and it spent more time in my garage being repaired then used... and guess what I was told on how to fix it... Completely Glass it... with fiberglass and resin.
So I sold it... |

Has anyone bought one of these POS's yet? Any reviews other than 'this thing rips, bra!"
Can someone post details like pull speed, starts, construction, spool size, anchoring, tranny, ect. maybe a few pics?
Btw i placed a small order for a part just for shizzles and it was charged out of my bank like a weekago, but still havent recieved a shipping notice. I've called and emailed...nothin. Is this site for real? The whole thing looks like a joke to me. |

I'm sure Robin got a lot of orders when he lowered the prices so he's probably pretty busy, but he should at least be able to respond to emails or something and let us know whats up. |
