2015 GTR 25
Well got my gtr25 in yesterday and took it out for a little testing. Got a constant 23 bumping 24mph running solo and held 21-22mph with 2 fat guys all in deep water (230lb +230lb) boat is a 1648 weldbilt crawdad 5 gal gas and 2 batteries. Was hoping for alil more speed but she brand new. But the combo is one light setup for those river hunt. Maybe in a year I will upgrade to a true mud hull. I have had this boat since 2013 and just put a new paint job on it. I have always been a longtail guy but after driving my buddies surface drives I had to make the switch. The motor seems to be pretty strong. Only got about 1.5hrs on it yesterday after work but hoping to put more on it soon. The handling is very responsive and quick. Will let ya'll know more when I do more testing to get the best outta the motor. I gotta get more weight in the front to help level it out but here is a few pics

Re: 2015 GTR 25

Re: 2015 GTR 25
I think that's one of the best looking boats I've seen on here, as far as the lines and camo go. Just a sharp looking boat with a different shape that actually works.
