I have a buddy that is considering purchasing a 1854 gator Trax w/ hunt deck and buying a new 36 pro drive to put on it. Looking for opinions on speed and carrying a load. It will be used primarily for duck hunting, carrying 4-6 guys to his blind (probably 2 mile boat ride). I am concerned that it will be a slug with the addition of the huntdeck, but most of you have alot more knowledge than me on mud rigs performance. I searched the reviews section and could not find any info on this exact set-up. Thanks |

Why is your buddy concerned about speed ? He's only going on a 2 mile boat ride . He will be fine hunt deck will not affect his speed . 6 people in a boat is a heavy Load for any mud rig other then a dual rig. Should still get speeds in the mid to low 20's. |

viewtopic.php?f=3&t=62949 Theres a little info on it. I don't think it was the motor, but idk what was the problem. Anyway, 6 guys in a boat, you're friend needs a dual rig. But its only 2 miles, so it wouldn't matter much. |

Make the other freeloading dicks that don't have a boat buy the other engine to haul their asses around..... |

I doubt you will get on plane with 6 ppl. I would guess 7-8 mph |

Is this something gator trax is doing more of now? I know they'll put any engine you want on there but seems like gator trax boats with pro drives are popping up more often on here. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

It was a stage 2 GTR but it pushed 5 guys and gear 26 mph on my 18/56 GD hull. 32 empty for comparison |

seems like everyone wants a 12 guy, 30 Plus MPH rig these days.... If i can get on step with a 6 man load AND gear i'm a happy camper. And just a 2 mile run i dont care what the GPS says. If it's a race then leave 4 of them at the ramp and roll out empty, drop off the place holder and run back!! |
