I finally have a pic for show and tell. 2009 1675 Explorer ss w/ 2008 75-e-tec. Nick named "Cranks Bait", as I own Cranks Bicycle Shoppe. It's two weeks old and already scratched and slimed. My wife hates that it smells like fish already.
OK I'll show my 2004 Angler 1700 SS w, 115 Johnson 4-stroke. Not that I'm not proud of it just the pic is of it at the storage unit.

What does she expect? Hey,...it's a fishing boat. Suppose to smell like fish,isn't it? By the way,...since the boat is an '09 and the motor an '08,
and with Lund now owned by Brunswick,...how were you able to get the
E-TEC motor in place of Merc? Was the boat ordered w/o factory pre-rig
or something? Anyway,...you have a nice rig there!
That lockup by Brunswick to only sell Mercs on Lunds was only for 5 years and was up in 08 I think. Dealers can sell what ever motor they want now from my understanding.

I'm not quite sure from the pic, but what is the raised area from to the left of the operator's seat?

Nope, not '08. I bought an '08 1750 Fisherman. Boat only came with Mercury, but Honda was an extra cost option. I settled for the Merc as it came with a 5-year warranty.
The current 2009 Lund brochure features Mercury motors (pg. 6 of the .pdf file below, or pg. 8 of the printed brochure), and the list of standard equipment on all their models says "Mercury outboard motor" and "Mercury pre-rig". No mention this year of Honda as an option.
It appears Lund is still mated to Mercury.

Hello to all
This is the pro-v I just bought, it has been in a coma for the last three years
and I have been in the process of making it ready again. So far alot of cleaning and the normal treatment for comatose boats.
Look for this weekend to tell me if I did good or not !
