"USA how did you get that price from Nebulus, end of season clearance?"

Not sure, it was just listed as that, I didn't call their CS or anything.

Turned out Hotbox LLC was non respondent. My credit card company is dealing with it. If it looks to good to be true it probably is. USA how did you get that price from Nebulus, end of season clearance?

A Nebulus for 498+ shipping is a damn good deal. They're listed for 600.00 on their website. I got mine for 550.00 shipped from Nebulus about 6 months ago.

I'm keeping mine in the boat for late season Musky.

Bought a Nebulus for $535 including shipping from hotbox LLC. Lot less bulk and can be used for soft water also.

I have a snowmobile. About the only option worthwhile was a nebulus float cause the side floats for a snowmobile have to be pretty big. When I bought one four years ago they were 400 bucks - the same price I paid for the snowmobile! But I already had the sled and I can't afford an ATV so it was a good buy for me. If I ever buy an ATV I can use it on that as well. I heard the price increased to 500 bucks for one now, but what I do like about them is they're not real bulky. And in the summer I wrap it around my boat seat and I have an extra livesaving device, just in case!

I have 400 Honda rancher.  I bought a rear drop rack for atv and the honda came with front rack.  I made boxes from plywood that bolt easily to the racks and I remove the boxes in the spring for use on trails.  They are very sturdy.  I filled the boxes with closed cell foam from Menards.  I thought the boxes out and I have auger holders, rod holders, bucket holders, holders for all the stuff I need out ice fishing.  You are required to have a specific square foot minimum of flotation and the formula is on the Dane county atv flotation site.  If I can do it, I think most able bodies should be able to figure something out.

It was fun doing the project.  Shellfish 

Ps.  A set of rear chains for atv is very helpful.
