The Wooldridge XL:
1/4” hull thickness.
29” side height
Max tiller prop 90 hp.
Total weight 1050 lbs.
———————————-
The Wooldridge LT
1/8” hill thickness
21” side height
Max tiller prop 70 hp.
Total weight 740 lbs.
———————————
There’s a 310 lb weight difference right there.
The LT is a third of the weight of the XL.
It’s almost like a guy needs either two motors - or - two (or three) boats.
Or… he’s got to determine just exactly what he would need, or be satisfied with on the Kenai.
Chances are, he could do well on the Kenai with a tin cup like a Lowe Aura at 475 lbs and a .072” hull….
I just want to get out and away from the combat crowd (100’ away, and more, would be satisfying), pull over to the weeds, get out, and flip away.
I really don’t dip net much, preferring to flip, but I’ve got family and they could benefit from the bounty of a day netting.
I’m on a carpenter’s budget. Facts. But I’d pay for what would work satisfactorily.
Wouldn’t just a beater tin cup with a 50 get the job done.?
What would I be missing by running a lightweight beater over a Wooldridge as per the Kenai.?
