I have been looking for a new boat. I have looked at an Excel 1754 and a Gatortrax 1754. Both with a 35 mud buddy. I do not know which one I should get and looking for some advice and opinions. |

X3^^ although I haven't ran with any of the ones made out of the 5086 aluminum. They may be tougher than the older ones but still won't turn as well. |

I live in central Mississippi and hunt the Mississippi delta. I have been hunting with a john boat and outboard so either will be a step up. I have just heard that the excels are not made out of as heavy duty material, but if ive yet to sink a john boat i think i will be fine either way. |

For the money spent on either one mentioned, By three 1648 Alumacrafts and have a spare ready to recieve your motor. Might have enough left over to put a down stroke on a aluminum Welder, also. Gonna destroy a boat with a mud motor might as well be a cheap one. I get about 5 years out of mine, but always have one in reserve. Don't take much time to change out motor. |

I like my 1851 F86 better than the Gator Trax boats I've been in. Or I would go with the Gator Tail Extreme series. |

Drive some different brands if you can. Take your time buying and get the boat you want. These things are expensive. My round chine gator trax is a little slower but its built strong and turns on a dime. I can't speak for excel boats because I never even seen one here. Not knocking excel but I love my gator trax. |

He is right. I thought my old boat was the shit. Until I got my new F86. Drive or ride all you can. Then break out $20k and go get you a rig. |
