 Brother Breaux 18x48 "Red River Special"
Picked up the boat from brother 3 weeks ago and finally got the paint complete, hydroturf down, wiring complete, fuel line rigged and the new 36 prodrive FPR hung ont he back. All I'm waiting on is a fuel pickup for my tank and we are set. I'm gonna run it Thursday hopefully and I'll post speeds afterwards. I gave Brother a list of the few things I wanted on the boat, described what I hd in mind and let him take the reins on the rest of it. Brother is a helluva guy and I would give him my business again in a heartbeat. Special thanks to FullThrottle. Never would have gotten it done without his help.

 Re: Brother Breaux 18x48 "Red River Special"
That's a badass rig dude, I like the hydro turf pattern with the paint job.

 Re: Brother Breaux 18x48 "Red River Special"
You might need to put a breakaway tounge on that trailer. Your garage looks a little on the small side.

 Re: Brother Breaux 18x48 "Red River Special"
Comparing this boat to a Gator Tail of the same size, what would be the weight comparison and does it make a big differance.
