 Gatortail extreme with 35 gtr
Gatortail 35 gtr gatortail 1854 extreme
I haven't gps'd it yet but it runs about like I expected. Runs like a champ. What has impressed me the most is how well the stepped hull handles. I've been running it in the trinity river which has some extremely shallow sandbars right now that I want to say are 4- 5 inches deep. Shallow enough I need a new prop already. And the boat turns extremely well. It does slide enough you need to anticipate where you need to go, but compared to ur standard square chine, this thing really digs in. In the deep water it hardly has any slide to it all.
I've been bowfishing out of it and two people can comfortably shoot off the front deck. I'm 6'1" 230 lbs and my friend is about 5'10" 180 lbs. And no problem with room or stability.
I'll get some speeds this week, but no matter what it reads I'll be happy case it scoots.

 Re: Gatortail extreme
I don't have any pics of the layout. I'll get some tomorrow when I take it out. But it's wide open. I had them put a seat base on the box at the back and two in the middle and some handles along the gunwales on the floor
