Post Anyone Running A Mud Buddy On A Gator Tail Boat
I'm thinking about the new 40 HP Kohler MB on the 17X46 GT boat...anyone running anything close to this combination?

Go on the Mud Buddy forums. Seems like there were a couple guys with similar rigs.

We have type talked about this. Mine is a great set-up. 35 mudbuddy sport stage one mods w/
Gator tail step deck 1854 not extreme but similar hull. 30+ mph. great room and load carrying
I have gator tail seat bases so I can move the seats around of take them out for weight distribution. I am very pleased with my rig. Going to tweek motor with 3 blade/48 tooth gear to see what effect it will have on RPM's, but not unhappy just looking for more without blowing the motor up.

If I had a mudbuddy on a GT boat wouldnt that be like satan inviting jesus to his birthday party. Kind of taboo with the history and all.

The man asked a question and he got an answer. If you want to be a hater so be it.

"Its comments like this and your attitude when called on it that keep this site from being as good as it can be." deadbird


Could not agree more. Seems to be contagious. Some people have to attack a decision that they did not make. There are those on all sides that seems to be haters not helpers. It is very disheartening to see knowledgeable people attacked for making an attempt to help others. Some of you need to chill out. Some of this is in fun. More and More of this has become personal and
not at all helpful. My opinion only.

Post Re: Anyone Running A Mud Buddy On A Gator Tail Boat
I'm just curious, why would you get a Gator-Tail boat instead of a Gator Trax with a hunt deck? It's actually made for the motor you're buying. I've got a lead on a 2009 18x50 huntdeck for $6300 with trailer.
