Fun day man. Can't wait to do it again. We need to find more folks with more mud motors to go too.

Yea. Down river bumping up against 23mph. Not too bad for a longtail on an old jon boat. I still say next time we need to swap motors and see what happens.

I love my 23. Arlon and Jakob built it with a 9x7 prop and tuned it to run 4100 RPMs out of water. I thought it would be too much prop, but I trusted them. Glad I did!

Thinkin about taking middle seat out of this alweld boat. It is a 15/44. A little more room would be nice.
