 Prodigy 18/54 GTR 37
MM Brand: Gatortail Horsepower: 37 Boat Brand: Prodigy Boat Size: 18/54 Boat Layout: square nose, fishtail, catwalks
Speeds | Shallow Water: N/A Speeds | Deep Water: 28 Total Boat Load With Gear Etc: empty with driver and fuel (400lbs) Conditions Tested In: Deep water river, stumps, logs, timber.
The people are awesome and the boat is amazing. Couldn't be happier
The boat far exceeded my expectations It runs great with the 37 to be as heavy as it is and it turns and handles great.
Prodigy 18/54
18/54 Gatortail GTR 37 Square nose 3/16th bottom Tapered chine Spud pole winch Fishtail Dual 1/2 boxes Grab handle 8" catwalk 45 corners Vertical catwalk tray left Bent tray right Deck hatch Extended deck Permanent fuel tank in front Exposed fuel filler Bow rails 8' Spud poles Removable Light bar Trolling motor bracket Trolling motor plug 4 cup holders Integrated switch panel 2 seat bases (front deck and center of the fishtail deck)
stock 3 blade compared to a MB big blade.
With me 280lbs and 13 gallons of gas it runs 27-28 with a 3 blade. With the same load with the 2 blade it runs 26-27.
I put 1000 lbs of water in coolers in the boat. Both 2 and 3 blade ran 22 but the 2 blade planed out way quicker.
2 blade vibrates 3 blade has tiller torque
I'm gonna keep the 3 blade for fishing and going to the sand bar.
And use the big blade for alligator and duck hunting

 Re: Prodigy 18/54 GTR 37
Nice, I have the same set up. Sweet boats. I bumped 28 a couple times, but more realistic is 23-27 depending on the load, which has been up to 4 people, 2 ice chests, batteries, etc. It seems to like more weight in the back. I'm using second trim hole from the top with stock prop. Seems like you consistently run a little quicker, I only weigh 165.

 Re: Prodigy 18/54 GTR 37
Good looking boat. I really like the way you have it set up! Plenty of room for seats and storage but still plenty of open floor space

 Re: Prodigy 18/54 GTR 37
Weird, I had 3 people and full duck hunting gear this weekend and ran 23/24 all weekend. 24/26 with two guys and hunting load. It seems like with just one person I get about 26/27 consistently. I'm thinking of getting a big blade for it. I'll see.
