 New Phowler Prowler 1236 Finished Pictures!!!!
Here is our new Prowler hull finished and in paint.
It turned out really nice. The second one will be full floatation and we need to get it out to the Big Foot pond and sink test it sometime next week.

The handle is too damn long on the motor!You better be careful in the timber while turning with such a long tiller

 Re: New Phowler Prowler 1236 Finished Pictures!!!!
We agree in the handle being to long, we are working on our own modified handle for the little copperhead, it will be 12-18" shorter then the standard one.

 Re: New Phowler Prowler 1236 Finished Pictures!!!!
We have not set final pricing yet, but it looks like the boat will be starting around $2600 in green, no camo or webbing, as this one sits around $2900, trailer is around $900 and the Copperhead is $2495 so total would be $6295 plus tax and shipping on motor and trailer. With the layout seat and a snap in/zippered cover for the cockpit it will retail for around $6585 plus tax and shipping.
We are going to do an introduction sale on the first 12 package rigs ordered with camo, webbing, snap in/zippered cockpit cover (noramally another $125) and the layout seat (normally $65) for right around $5950 complete and we will will throw in a set of portable running lights.
We think our pricing is not to far off the mark compared with some of the other boats on the market of similar size (not the pastic stuff).
We are also working on a package deal for two boats and motors on a single side by side trailer, but are waiting on the trailer pricing.
The 14-16' models will be $200-400 more over the base 12' model.

I know it isn't a MM, but you need to test it with a 25hp outboard.

We have a little 9.9 and 15 horse coming to try it with, I think it will fly with just a 15 on the back. As for Bubba and his modeling experience, didn't any of you guys see the movie Zoolander............ ...that was Bubba without his beard PW

 Re: New Phowler Prowler 1236 Finished Pictures!!!!
with some maroon paint and a couple white letters, that little popcorn fart could be mistaken for a Dr. Pepper can. Atleast we can still tell it's a PWilly design, because you didn't fail to leave off your trademark ugly ass bow.
that felt good to get off my chest.
PWilly, I'll be looking foward to hearing from your lawyers.

 Re: New Phowler Prowler 1236 Finished Pictures!!!!
That was cute, but we kinda like our ugly ass bow, it is beaufitul in the rough water.
Anyway, we got a chance to run the 1236 this weekend, with two men, Bubba at 185 and another at 220 it ran an average of 22 mph in deep water and handled like a dream. One man it was scary once you hit 26 mph, needs more weight up front.

 Re: New Phowler Prowler 1236 Finished Pictures!!!!
The 1540 is done but we have not had a chance to get it out for testing. We ran the little boats this weekend to get some finished running video with the boats in paint. We hope to have the larger boat on the water in the next week, but we are in no hurry since we can't get more sheet material for the larger boats for at least 6 weeks, everyone is out of 72" wide sheets of .100, so it will be at least two months before we can get these into production.
