 test driveAnyone have a copperhead or a smaller surface drive that would be good on a 1448 that I can test drive. Debating between getting another long tail and getting a surface drive.

Re: test drive Go straight to copperhead in Covington. They'll ride you around and show you their operation.
I have a 14 but I'm a long drive from you. There was an 18 at the SETX run that I think was from around the Port Arthur area. _________________ 13' Jefferson fiberglass skiff - 14 Copperhead |

Re: test drive I wanna see how it handles on my boat. I think it would be a good fit being my boat is so light.

Re: test drive Fastest motor on the market for the hp. But it sucks in vegetation, has no frills, and they don't like to stop in the mud. It has advantages and dusadvantages. If you want a simple light fast small surface drive with good customer service go for copperhead.

Re: test drive I was VERY impressed by the things the longtail crew were doing at SETX.
