| Seachoice Outriggers
thinking of installing outriggers on my 26ft striper. Don't want to spend a lot of money as I will be only using during the Tuna season.
What do you people think of the SEACHOICE. They are failry cheap.
Any suggestion

How many lines do you want to run for tuna? With flatline clips on the engine cover and outrodders, I run 6 on the surface and can run two more with downplanes or downriggers. It makes a heck of a spread, especially solo or even with two anglers.

i have used the seachoice 3 part 15' telescoping outriggers for the last 2 seasons without complaint. keep in mind they are not permanantly installed. they get cleaned and stowed after every trip. the seachoice line kit is a waste $$ though.

I had them on my last boat and they worked ok for what they cost. The bad- in rough seas they can collapse closed, and I did have to re-solder on a couple of the guides back on because of that. The good- they will work for the $120 you can get them for on ebay.

I'd go with Precision, or Pompanette. I have 15' stiff Precision outriggers on my Whaler, and 12' mediums on my Shamrock. I got my 12'ers here on BD Classifieds for $300.00 with the mounts. Look around... you'll find a quality set of used .
