Hi All,
Well I tried to make the displacement haul thing work for creek boating. Not going to happen for me. I'm going back to plaining hull (Jackson Super Hero) SO... I'm selling my Jackson Maga-Rocker. It was the very first one out of the Maga-Rocker production mold and I was able to have them put extra plastic in it . THIS BOAT IS BOMB PROOF. It has all the outfitting the new Jackson boats have. I'm selling for $650.00
