Hey, I just bought that exact model from Gander Mountain for $120. How do you like it? Any tips?

I've had it for about 2 1/2 years and had to replace the drip pan with a universal one from Home Depot after about 14 months. Other than that, it's great. The pedestal is awesome and very well made. Many steaks, Brats and Burgers have crossed that grill.

Love having the grill, really don't think we could do without it now. I made this setup myself, I like to call it "The Bar and Grill" and I can move it to the bow and spin the grill around which we've found to be pretty handy when beached. We've grilled everything from dogs, brats, steak to big ass Tri-tip roasts :drool :thumbsup on this grill. It cost me just about $5, just because I was givin the grill, but it only went for about $35. Actually this grill rocks, its probably 8 years old on still like new, top and bottom are cast alum = no rust.

I bent over and bought a Magma mainly for the windproof feature. The piezo igniter is cool too. I have it mounted next to the sink, never have had a grease issue. The Tracker BBQ that came with the toon wouldn't stay lit with the slightest gust. No fun to get pissed off when you're having a good time

This is ours on a pedestal mount. I do put down a towel 'just in case' but so far have not created any messes yet. The grill is really nice, heats up quick and cleans up nice. :)

This is the Magma grill set up on my cousin's houseboat. It could be used on a pontoon as well. He has a mat that he puts under the grill. I think he bought it at a BBQ grill store as a deck (as in a house deck) mat. It works well, but we had some trouble keeping it lit in the wind. As a matter of fact, it went out when I lifted the lid to turn the steaks. But when it was lit, it cooked good.
