Comments: I received the boat in January and have been giving her hell, before I would write a review. So far I am totally content with this rig. I had this boat laid out so it could take on any task, from hunting, fishing, bow fishing, to just watching the girls lay on the deck, and has it done well. It handles very well in the corners and surprising well in big water as well, the hybrid does a good job of keeping the spray of ya. During the build i knew what i needed and wanted, Chad thru in his input on things to do and not to do, and he was really helpful and courteous. In all the boat is ridiculous and turns heads everywhere I go, and i could not be happier. I only have a few pics and vids, but more will be up as time goes. This boat is SOLID, no noise or rattling!

I also ran with the hammer, lost 2 mph but man is it mean out the whole, and shallow throws a mean rooster tail

dam thats a nice set up

Looks like u slid all the way around the turn.

Thanks, yeah she's driftable for sure. Course there were a couple unintentional slides during first couple runs.

Nice boat bro! Does it have gator glide?
Todd
Never mind I just read over your spec sheet. It does mine to and she slides a bit as well.

Sick rig! I want one!

Yeah that gator glide is slick, but got pretty good at sliding it. Dilla thought you had a prodigy?.

Lol breaking it in right! Nice boat

I do just want a bigger one! Didn't have all these cool options when I got mine but mine was like the 2nd or 3rd one he built I think. They are awesome boats and have came a long way with options in a very short time! I love mine, just want a big one to
