A buddy of mine has one of those fiberglass hydroflats with a modded gtr on it. The back of it tapers in way more than that sorta like a bass boat. The only problem he has is with a load the passengers have to move to the front for it to plane off. Like it doesn't have enough surface at the back to just jump on plane. Once he gets on plane it runs it's ass off and performs great.

Pretty flat, not as much as Parker's though. It's actually a primer that they tinted for me. A two part with catalyst.

I've used some 2 part epoxies in the past on glass boats and they always held up well. I think I'm gonna go with the duralux on my new boat

Mind letting us know how much all the upgrades were to a $400 boat?

If you didnt know better, you would say that was a brand new rig!

Is this the one you'll be running backwards on Sat??? Can't wait to see that motor. By the way, is it possible for us 23hp guys make the same reverse mod with the reverse parts off a 23GTR???

How does it run with that hunt deck? I'm thinking of having one put on my 1648 instead of pods if the 35 weighs it down too much this weekend.
