Post 1536 Phowler Prowler Sneak Boat with 12hp Copperhead Motor
We demod a customer today in one of our 1536 Prowler Sneak Boats so we thought we would post up the numbers.

Boat: 1536 Prowler Sneak Boat - Weight approx 240#
Motor: Cooperhead 12HP

Conditions: Light wind, deep water against and with 4-5 mph current. Shallow water 1.5-4' deep, weeds and logs out of wind and current.

Two men, 185 and 200 with all regular boating gear.

Deep water 17.6 - 21.4 depending on direction with or against current.

Shallow protected water - 22.7 top speed, average 20.6

Three men - Shallow protected water - 18.6 top speed, average 16.9.

The 15" boat performs right in between our 14-16' models, with three men it was 1.5-1.6 mph faster then the 14' model and .5 slower then the 16' model.

This 15' is a nice rig for two -three men. Did not get a chance to run it by myself for a one man speed test.
