 Re: Excel Shallow Water F4 1860 ***NEW PICS added 4-1-10*** looks like a weird transom angle for the PD and the hydro trim/tilt. And man that is alot of stuff hanging on the huntdeck. Sweet looking boat either way.

Re: Excel Shallow Water F4 1860 ***NEW PICS added 4-1-10*** Boat rides like a champ with the pd. I had everything figured to a "T" I promise. I'm not gonna own something unless it's right. As for the hoses on the deck, they haven't gotten in the way yet. Me and my buddies stood on the deck and walked all over it fishing this summer with no problems. Finishing up a custom blind for the boat as we speak. Just ready to hit the duck hole.

Re: Excel Shallow Water F4 1860 ***NEW PICS added 4-1-10*** Plus I used to be in the spray foam biz. Sold and installed it in homes for insulation a few years back. It also adds to the strength of the hull, yet adds virtually no weight. That closed cell urethane foam is bad shiz.
Duramax, you have to custom order the triple taper with the outboard transom? Is it the tall transom?

Re: Excel Shallow Water F4 1860 ***NEW PICS added 4-1-10*** I had to order the kik-up jack plate separate. The Pro Drive motor is a tall transom motor so I am assuming my boat has a tall transom. 20 inch transom if I remember correctly. I ordered a solid aluminum 1 inch thick plate from Tigrett Steel in Tupelo, MS to bolt to the kik-up in order to mount my mud motor. If I do get ready to add an outboard, I will just take that plate off the kik-up and add the outboard. I doubt I will ever do this tho. I just wanted this option to be availible.

Re: Excel Shallow Water F4 1860 ***NEW PICS added 4-1-10*** Nice looking rig. If you have a chance can you post some pics of the rig all set up? I'm looking at that hull and would like to see some actual user pics as opposed to the standard commercial type. Thanks!

Re: Excel Shallow Water F4 1860 ***NEW PICS added 4-1-10*** I'd like to see some pics also.. How's it do in real real shallow stuff? I'd imagine it'd get stuck or hung pretty quickly in the stuff that's shallow with a hard bottom due to weight correct? Do you think it could go through the same stuff as a gator trax, or pro drive, etc?
