Wanted a Lund and picked up a nice one! Time to put the old Princecraft to pasture after 25 years of service. 
This one is an 2008 with only 166 hrs on the big motor and lots of time covered up in heated storage. Not a hole in any gunnell(yet) Can't wait to get started rigging it for the big lake.

Thanks guys - lots of rigging problems to solve. I'm used to my cross board and fishing out the back but the kicker motor and ladder will make that a challenge. I believe there is a going to be some Cisco track added to the gunnels. I don't like the options for the Lund track system - not for riggers or dipsey rods anyway. I do love a challenge though...
Any opinions on track systems ? I have a clean slate to work with.

Looks in great shape. Good luck. 

I went with Traxstech and I am very happy with it.

I picked up a 1996 Lund last year. Same deal, no holes, lots of time in storage…..great looking boat! I put a 24” Cisco tracks on my gunnels. I’m going to run one rigger and a triple tree off of each side (I hope). Good luck with the new boat, looks awesome.

 Congratulations..... looks like you got a real nice one......As far as gunnels go,  i highly recommend the Traxtech .... if you go with 60 or 72" they have a notch cut out so you don't have to add stuff from the ends all the time.  Comes in real handy. I'll put up a pic of the 72" I had on my rig last year. Look for the notch right by the rod holder

looks good - I may have to go that route and separate my tracks too. Is that an 18" and a 24" ?
