How well will a 23 GTR do on a 1638 all welded boat? I don't run mud flat, just stumps, logs, shallow water, muddy shallows every now and then, Back water, Etc. Right now i am running a 18hp go devil longtail. It does pretty good but i would like the manuverablity of the 23 GTR. |

Too narrow. You will regret it. |

It may do okay, see if you can test drive it on there. |

18x40 is ideal for 23 GTR. I just sold it. and would never buy nuthn smaller than a 35 on a 17/54 max. But that's just my opinion they do well with 1 person after that it's not good enough for me |

i test drove a 23 GTR on my 16x38 GD hull and it performed horribly (max speed was 19mph) . i don't think the rounded chines helped much. |

I'm just gonna throw this out there, I would say it would perform the best all around with the 1746 gatortail boat with only a drivers seat, no gun boxes or extra shit. But if it were me, and you arent restricted by any horsepower limits where you run, I would find the extra 1600 dollars somewhere and buy the 35 and be done with it. |

Had a 16/36 Weld built with a 23 GT. Fast and great in the mud ,only draw back was stability. Was great with myself and one other person, lost about 3mph with a 3rd. Got a young son and just didn't feel comfortable with him in the boat, if I was a youngster I would put some mods and keep it. |
