Hey guys new to the site and I am going to be buying a new boat hear in the next month or so I run a 16 foot mv lowe with a 40 johnson set all up for bowfishing I am really interested in the gator-tail boats and motors i and thinking a 1860 with a gtr35 so any info from you guy would be great or would i be better off with a hd mud buddy and how do these motors handle sand and gravel ?? |

It don't matter what you get "Sand is da Devil". Da 1860 wit a 35 GTR is a good choice for bowfishin. If it is possible go test drive one. |

LOL so is it there one is better then the other or is it personal preferences I mean that HD is like 3 grand more then the GT so i guess i hope it is better ?? there is no dealers up here in MI so i will have to travel to get one but i don't know what to look for I shoot a lot of tournys so i want a boat that can handle 700 lb of fish and a motor that will go through cattails and be ok to hit logs/stumps |

An 1860 with lets say 3 guys(a bowfishing tournament norm) (180lb x 3 = 540lb), 700lb of fish with 35 GTR = putt putting to the weigh in. haha. IF you do it...... I would think you would want duals. So instead of that mudbutty, go with duals... whether its gator tail or pro drive or mudbutties. I'd go with duals with that much weight. Just my opinion though. Keep in mind I dont know chit bout nuthin. ![]() |

Man i tell you what why don't you go talk to FLASH or PM him, he has the dual gatortails and i for one have seen it in action, that boat was running 28MPH with 8 people in it through mudd and whatever else per GPS. That thing is a beast and if i could afford it i would have it! ![]() |
