I love to see the companies competing for all the kayak fishing stuff. Because in the end it will mean cheaper and more stuff available for us.

I have plenty of the 438s to use scotty in the WS, Yakatack or Scotty tracks. I don't have the tracks in stock. I do have a few sections of it we were given to test out.

We too have the 438 in stock however I think Andy will agree in saying that the tracks themselves are sub-par to others on the market. We will instead be stocking the YakAttack Geartrac SL which is a composite track with a much better design. The scotty tracks are just far too flexible and you can actually pop to T-bolt right out of the tracks top if you pull on it. There is a reason they are so much cheaper.

If your looking for a lower cost alternative to the standard Aluminum GearTrac the GT90 SL is the best option available and unlike all the other manufactures it is made 100% in the USA by kayak fishermen for kayak fishermen. Not to mention that YakAttack is a huge supporter of anything that OEX/BWE puts on and they give more product away to HOW than anybody I know of. Amazing products from an amazing company.

I have the standard GT90 Aluminum tracks in stock at the moment the SL tracks will be in hopefully sometime early next week.

I dont think Andy stocks the GT90 but I can get him a pair up there for you if needed.

They will work on the narrow rails of the Revo and Outback. Actually even the GT175 fits these, just have to use shorter tracks.

GT90 is .90" wide the GT175 is 1 3/4" wide
