Ok cool. I'm thinking I'm gonna go with a cheap for now.

Just got mine! I paid $96.00+$24.00 shipping. $120 for a new in box ODC 420! Im stoked!

That's Awesome! I hope you enjoy it as much as we do with ours.

if you want a tube that holds weight easy and is as comfortable as a lazy boy recliner get a water skeeter !!!

Congrates on the new 420 thats a sweet looking tube, your gonna love it. As far as rod holders go I made one out of PVC pipe that holds 3 rods for less than $10. Lots of diffrent designs to hold however many rods you want. Can anybody tell me if the throwable type IV PFD cushions will make me legal. I want to sit on it to get higher in my Togiak but dont want both vest and cushion.

Negative my friend. Has to be worn. That way in case your unconscious you don't sink.

I agree the PVC pipe is cheaper. However, my dumb *** couldnt figure out how to put it together, so I went and bought two $20 ones lol.

My dumb *** is also handyman challenged so I just ordered two of the ones you recommended. I just need to get some fins and a PFD. Should I just go with dive fins? The Hotpots are virtually impossible to find and the force fins cost an arm and a leg.

That makes sence except nobody seems to wear them, just sit on them or toss them in the back. Ill take em both to be safe. If I can figure out how I will post pics of my tube and rack, it was easy to make, only took 3 beers!!

I will get grief from these, but I love them as do some other guts I know and they are CHEAP.

25 bucks for fins I love. They are made by the sane company you got your tube from.

Ok, those are made to go over boots right? I think I need the slip on style with the strap in the back because I have the neoprene booties instead of boots.
