Info on best Utility Sled for pulling

[Secesh Stage Stop]

We are trying to figure what is the best sled for towing heavy loads. I have been reading info on both the Ski-Doo Skandic SWT and the Arctic cat Bear Cat. Which would be the best or is there a better Sled out there for our needs??? Any info would help. Thanks

Ski doo skandic SWT is used all the time at ski hills for: ski patrol, Maint , food and beverage, races and what ever else. Has high, low and reverse with gear box. Heavy sled but does what it is designed to do WORK. 20 inch wide track is a plus.

I think any of the wide tracks are good just depends on how brand loyal you are. All of them are setup about the same. I have an old 87 Yamaha VK 540 that pulls like a tractor. I did a trip last year with a sled hooked to that had a 120qt cooler, dry box (same size as the cooler) 40 gallons of gas a clam shell style car topper all packed full of gear while riding two-up. I can only imagine how heavy it was. Sled did great just had to stop a few times to let the belt cool. But with a regular toboggan or pulling a dead sled I don't have any heat issues.
Some are liquid cooled and some are air. Mine is air but I wouldn't turn down a water cooled one it just all depends on the snow conditions and what you'll be pulling.
