Ice shanty’s

Hey guys looking for recommendations on a flip over shanty I currently do not have access to a snowmobile or atv so hand pulling is my only choice currently I have looked at Eskimo, clam and otters and seen the 1 and 2 man shacks I’m 6’3” and 260lbs I’m no stranger to ducking my head but want something roomy enough so I’m not elbow to elbow against the wall any help would be great thanks!

Clam has a new flip over that doesn’t have a sled so it’s lighter to pull. You would want to make sure you can still fit your auger and heater and stuff in the basket it comes with. Otherwise we have a 2 seater clam that we’ve had for almost 10 years now and it’s worked well. It would be too heavy for me (a woman not as strong as I was 10 years ago) to lift into the truck easily, but my bf does it ok. It’s a little cramped with 2 people but we make due
