1754 GTB with 35gtr
MM Brand: Gator Tail Horsepower:35 Boat Brand:Gator Tail Boat Size:1754 Boat Layout:open with seat in back and gun box Speeds | Shallow Water:31.2 Speeds | Deep Water:27.4 Total Boat Load With Gear Etc: two people around 600lbs in boat Conditions Tested In:Spanish Lake before they drained it. Comments: Ive been on here a while but never did post up anything about my boat. All in all, I have no complaints about it at all. I lucked up very much with the boat and motor and appreciate all the help from Kyle. These speeds are also before I learned how to drive the boat and trim the motor right. I have been able to hit 33 in deep water and 35 in the shallows on my gps after I learned how to drive. I have noticed that as soon as I throw my bowfishing deck and all the gear in it that I lose alot of speed, but I knew that was going to happen. The boat does carry a load very well. We use a 5500 Watt generator, 2 or 3 people, at least 2 ice chests(for fish of course ), and 3 batteries and other gear and boat planes out with that load.
