    Question War Eagle Blackhawk 2170


    Alright gang. After several years of scheming on a new boat, I am a day or two from pulling the trigger. I am looking at the War Eagle 2170 Blackhawk center console. It has a Mercury 150 fourstroke. Going to go with a 36 volt Ulterra and a pair of 9 inch Helix fishfinders.

    I have fished out of one of the 18 foot blackhawks, but never out of the bigger boat. I know several of you have this boat, or have fished out of it. Tell me what you think. I will be fishing the big four mostly, and maybe Ross Barnett and some of the river oxbows- Washington and Chotard. (I have an 16 foot war eagle for small lakes and ponds)

    Help me think gents? Pros and Cons. And yes, you can come fish out of it with me! I think there will be room!

    My 2170 with 150 yamaha has been a pleasure so far, plenty of room for family/friends and very stable. No regrets and super customer support from war eagle. i had mine sprayed insde with color matched sound deadener so it is pretty quiet and non-slip. i didn't get a center console so you may give up some floor space.

    I really like my 2170, rides nice and has lots of room. Not a center console though!
