Just wanted to post a few pictures of the new boat. Purchased the boat from a member on here last weekend, got it home last Saturday and on Sunday put down the hydroturf. I also added a few 12v plugs and a dual USB charging plug and I installed a Wetsounds Stealth 6. As for the motor, I bought a new GTR 37 and had it hung this week. Going run it this weekend, so I'll post a review in the review section on Sunday.

I'm very impressed with the build of the boat and the layout. The evolve sections and track system are perfect for bowfishing, fishing, hunting, or whatever I need to do. Very well thought out.

I don't have much experience with mud motors but also got the prodigy 1854 w 37gtr. Performs very well. I'm very impressed. The other guys I run with are very impressed w it as well. You won't be running them 30s people have been posting but 25-27 w light load. I ran 22 with over 1000 lbs estimated. Took awhile to get to plane in deep water but soon as I hit the shallows it picked right up no problem. Enjoy it. Nice boat.

Got to put 5 hrs on the rig to yesterday probably 2hrs of running and the other 3 was flogging. Started out slow, but it picked up as it broke in. 25/26 with 3 people full yeti, 12 gallons of fuel and safety gear. Ran 23 with the same gear and a 4th person. I'm going to experiment with moving weight around. The hull seems to like a little more weight in the back

That's impressive, that's basically the same rig I'm looking at ordering. I was debating 48 or 51, figured it might be a bit faster, but idk it'll be my first mud boat. Also going with GTR37

It's not a speed demon, but its a mud boat. 28 by myself with trolling motor, 2 icechest, 2 batteries and fishing gear is about the max. The great thing is, when I have 4 grown people, in it, it still runs about 24. I went frogging this weekend and the other boat was a much lighter custom aluminum hull with a stage 1 pro drive, It could not keep up and we both had the same load. Granted, I was only maybe 1-2mph faster, but just saying. I'm right at 15 hrs already (had it for about 3 weeks), and the motor ran stronger and stronger until about 12 hrs. It seems like it is broken in and running great now.

I would get the widest you can, the 54" bottom is so stable, I had 3 people standing on the catwalk on one side just to test it out. If it's between 48 and 51, get the 51. wont be slower and will displace a load better. Boat is an absolute tank and I love it so far. It likes the weight to be in the back, so I'm still playing with weight distribution.

Those are excellent speeds for a stock motor
