1850 Lund Tyee

[FreeTime]

This is my Lund 1850 Tyee. it has a 200 HP Mercury OptiMax

I have 14 Berts Rod Holders(7 each side) mounted in 2 sections of track a 4ft and a 3ft up each side.

We have 4 Walker Tournament Electric downriggers, 2 off the rear with 2 ft booms in a seperate 6" track and two off the sides with 4ft booms that mount at the rear of my 4 ft tracks.

I have Raymarine Electronics: Fishfinder ds600x Chartplotter: 435i

We have 2 Berts net holders in the front.

I have another rod holder which drops into the front seat base with 8 tubes to hold rods during fishing. We carry about 18-24 rods on a fishing day. The boat has plenty of room, always rides dry, and works well in rough water. In good sea's she really gets us there in a hurry as well.

Nice setup on the Lund! I've got a thing for those Lunds! Where did you get the front seat pedestal rod holder post you mentioned? Is that a Bert's item as well?

FreeTime, VN Setup. I'll bet when you open that 200 up, the only thing in the water is the prop. Lund builds a GR8 boat.

Nice rig FreeTime! Looks kind of like a porcupine with all of those rod holders How many rods do you run at a time?

[FreeTime]

The front rod holder is a cabelas purchase. We have run upto 15 rods at once. The 200 gets her up and moving very nicely!

Looks like a dragster with all those tail pipes on it.

But I must say Lunds are #1

nice boat Dave

I had to look at it again and I notice there is no blood stains on your carpet.

Do you ever get any fish,

We go so fast, the blood flies out the back end!

I think I noticed some of it on your windshield!

I forgot to add the Cannon Speed & Temp we have.

Just added another toy to this rig....I am anxiously awaiting the UPS guy today. We added Walker Strike Vision. This should be alot of fun to see whats going on. I think its more of a toy that to catch fish but thats ok.

Does this use a seperate cable, or do you replace the rigger cable with the cable for the camera? What's the diameter of the cable? How much blow back do you expect with the unit and cable?

[FreeTime]

I am not really sure about all the details. I got a deal on a brand new on int he box from a guy who won it in a raffle.

I do know the cable is about the same as my opposite rear rigger with the coater Cannon Speed & Temp cable. This should provide me a consistent drag with the two now. With a heavy ball they ont drag bad at all until you get into that 100+ range.

Nice looking Lund. What year? I'm in the market for a Lund Tyee 1850 as well. It will need to pull double duty as a fish and ski boat. I can't spend this much money for a dedicated fishing boat, otherwise the only person that will enjoy it is my wife's next husband:)

That said, are the rod holder bases set up for quick release? 200hp on an 1850 is a lot of ponies. I thought 175hp was maximum size OB a Tyee 1850 was rated for.

What is the top speed with the 200?

I want one.

I think the boat was set up with a track system. For a dual purpose boat they are slick. With some forethought and the tracks the fishing stuff disappears when skiing or boating. Yep this is an oldie thread, but it still may be somewhat useful.
