Post 1942 Scullys skiff W/35 GTR
MM Brand: Gator-Tail
Horsepower: 35
Boat Brand: Scully
Boat Size: 19' x 42"
Boat Layout: Open (crawfish skiff)

Speeds | Shallow Water: N/A
Speeds | Deep Water: 28.5 light, 25.6 loaded
Total Boat Load With Gear Etc: Light was just me (200 lb) and 10 gallons of gas. Loaded speed was 3 guys (200 lb a piece) and one guy (160 lb) and 10 gallons of gas.
Comments: My boat is pretty beat up on the bottom and when I run over half throttle it kinda sticks in the front. Still run over 28 mph with the whole boat in the water. When I add weight toward the back it runs better. Been playing with the trim and find it runs fastest by myself at about 3800 rpm. Trim up any more and it loses speed. Loaded it is fastest at about 3500 rpm with alot of prop in the water. Trim up or down any more and it loses speed. It will deffinately get the job done this crawfish season until I build a new one. So far Im lovin it!

Conditions tested in: All speeds are deep water and slightly windy. Find it runs better with a lil chop on the water due to all the dents in the bottom.
