Ever since I saw the Bay Runner online last year I've wanted one. I've never seen one in person but decided to take the plung and order one. Any one else out there have one? Any tips or setup ideas? This make house #4, I think I need counseling!

Yeah, you are down with the sickness, and since you are not "color blind", am curious to what you have to say at the end of the year on this JSK. Saw that one as well last year and looks interesting .....even at the joe shmoe full price of 269. 00 wink Two kids getting into the sport could easily turn this into a legitimate viable 2 man option......so could not so kid ....kids. Really curious as how the zippers, poles, and fabric hold up. Competition benefits us all....

hope you got a good deal on it. it is listed in the Fleet Farm ad this week for $269.99

I bought it for less but it had $55 shipping so after gas driving down I would have saved about 15.00. That's a really great price!

Don't these things look like a great product? The shelf is a good idea. I had a Shappell rover years ago. It was OK. The issue with it was not materials but cutting corners like not enough fabric around the skirt. It never broke or ripped. I have fished from a 3000 some, they are a decent product. I hope you love it

After seeing it last year I thought for sure otter or clam would have come out this year with something similar. I'm sure now that I bought one, next year someone will improve on it and make an insulated one. One thing I'm concerned about already is, I don't see any venting in it. I think the windows open but you would think it would still have 2 vents.

I'm curious if they will have any at the ice show today and how much people will be picking them up for.
