Post 1854 Uncle J w/ GTR Added
Picked up my GTR on Saturday in LA. Had it on the boat and in the water same day in Galveston.

29 MPH with me (195lbs) and my girl (110) in shallow water.
28 MPH in deep water.

Sunday had 3 people in the boat and cooler of adult beverages.
26-27mph in deep water.
4 people 25-26 mph.

I am totally blown away by this motor, HUGE improvement over my 27GDSD. My boat feels like a totally new rig.
I didnt really get to find much mud since the tide was very high, but still blown away by the ability of this motor.
The reverse plate seemed to work extremly well. I had driven a GTR before without one and was not overly impressed with the reverse. The plate makes a huge improvment in performance.

The gas tank has since been moved up under the front deck. (its in the back in pictures)

J you saw her in person, about as close as you are going to get.

Coe - We put in about 4:00pm. Ran to greens and back looking for birds. We did bump into some guy in a PD rig from Santa Fe, said he wasnt a part of the board. Found him in the back of Lake Hitchcock.

Right on. Had a work detail at the duck lease Sunday so that's I wasn't on the water early, I knew the tide would be good... Ohh well next time.

4pm??? Is that before or after Matlock comes on? :D
