Max rpm that I can get without seeing speed starting to drop is 3750 Pin is in second hole from the top.
The trailer is great love the four bunks. The reverse is awesome ran it through some veggies that stopped it dead in its tracks. I was like all shit what do I do now. Put it in reverse and it started to pull out. If I was in my buddy's boat we would still be stuck. The tiller torque keeps getting better as I keep adjusting the tab. Ran through floating dead decaying vegetation that was about 4' deep it looked like solid mud. It slowed down but kept going. The boat is a beast and fun to drive. Does slid a little but not to bad. I can't take it anywhere without somebody coming up to me asking about it or the motor. I had to send my deposit to a man that I never meet before 840 miles away, Jason was great to deal and everything went smooth.

 Re: Uncle J 1848 gtr 35
Looks good. Interesting look on the cap rail. Does it taper toward the front? I like the side racks too. Did you get the seats like Bigrich? I gotta buy some and man are they ever expensive!

 Re: Uncle J 1848 gtr 35
Good looking rig. I wish I would of seen your rod holder ideal before he finished mine or I would of stolen it ( going toadd them later). Uncle j builds a great boat got two of his and couldn't be more pleased. I will have a review of my new one up soon just waiting on this weather to break so I can get a finale run with everything mounted.

 Re: Uncle J 1848 gtr 35
After closer look at the pic you posted I see you are talking about the rod holder being removable. I was talking about adding the straps from the top of the cat walks to the floor

Yeah the straps are 1/4 '' x 2'' flat bar. The rod racks mount to them.

 Re: Uncle J 1848 gtr 35
gfowel, tell me more about this battery. Bigrich had some small batteries similar to this. Where did you get 'em? Are they a typical lawnmower battery?

 Re: Uncle J 1848 gtr 35
No they are a marine battery. They have a good bit of different ones to offer. I believe they are a gel cell battery. The technical poling skiff crowd such as hells bay and Maverick have been using them for years. I ordered mine from a place called west coast battery. They had free shipping and I bought two at different times and they were great to deal with.

 Re: Uncle J 1848 gtr 35
I'll check 'em out. The one thing I miss is a back up pull start for emergencies. Having a light spare battery would be nice. And if they work that good it would be nice to use them for everything!

 Re: Uncle J 1848 gtr 35
Goodness they've got more batteries than a dog has flees
Why did you get that battery and not the one with the metal jacket or high temp or all the others?
