Re: Excel 395 vanguard engine
I had one of those, not very robust, I defo would not add a ply platform to move th boat on, they are designed to carry a vertical load - and are quite wobbly doing that. I used mine for a 9.8 Tohatsu 4 stroke and had to move it carefully even on fairly level surfaces. It did last 3 years though.Andy wrote: ↑12 Feb 2020, 18:04I saw that vid, but ended up buying this....

I aim to add a bit of ply to the base so that I can move the inflatable while still in the bag as well !

Re: Excel 395 vanguard engine
I really regret not getting a chart plotter - my Garmin is only a fish finder.
I nearly bought the dragonfly 7 pro and wish I had.

Not a complete idiot - some parts are missing.
