 Longtail on Skiff Have any of you had any experience running a LT on a Crawfish style skiff? How do they perform? Pros and cons?

Re: Longtail on Skiff I had a 16hp godevil longtail on a 16x42 skiff. It ran about 16 mph with just me and a small load.

Re: Longtail on Skiff I just bought a 1436 crawdad skiff with a 14hp longtail. Only run it once so far and was really impressed with the way it handled. I know someone with a 16 gdlt on a duck skiff and it seems to really perform well. Hope this helps

Re: Longtail on Skiff First, thanks for the compliment. The Guy really rigged it out very well
and its lite and built like a tank...
second, the boat and crawdad worked out very well. The skiff cut through the waves very well.
not to mention the supurb job it did in the shallow skinny water. I also
went down some tight winding timber zigzag through feeder creeks and I was able to cut through them
Like a slalom skier.
I must say it really depends on what your wanting to do with it and
where your wanting to take it.

Re: Longtail on Skiff I run a 27 GDLT on my 16x56 skiff. It handles great for everything I do.

Re: Longtail on Skiff I have always liked Dixon's hull for LT's. You run in Lake Seminole? I bought a 25 HP GD LT from Paul some years back.
