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

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

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 |

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. |

I run a 27 GDLT on my 16x56 skiff. It handles great for everything I do. |

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. |
