| Post subject: | New Hull Question |
Looking for a surface drive boat, 3 man hunt load so probably 17-18 footer. Will be going from the salt marsh to the freshwater timber swamps. I've read thousands of reviews on every forum on the interwebs. As I start my search for this hull what are some of your recommendations as far as brand. On a serious budget...dont need all the luxuries but want the boat to perform well and last. Is there a custom builder that is on the cheaper side? Or would I be best off with a Go-Devil or one of the larger name brand hulls? Thanks in advance... |

Look into Uncle J boats. He has awasome work at very fair price. |

I'd look at an 1854 with tall sides and a pointed bow and nothing else. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

On a budget? Don't need luxury? Go with a godevil. You can get a brand new stripped down basic rig for almost half the price. They all have a pointed bow for the timber. You'll have to deal with the foam getting water logged a few years down the road and rip it out. (Believe I've gutted 5 of them now) and sometimes get treated like shit by the receptionist when you call up there for parts but they are good boats and motors. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
