Post Re: Reverse
Even though i know Kyle looks at this pretty often, I'll still say that I'm disappointed with how things have gone with the GT, i just don't talk about people's business online.

Y'all want to know the real truth, i wish i would have gotten a pro drive, i wouldn't have numb hands every time i drive my boat for more than ten minutes. But o well, we live and learn, i still like the boat, just not satisfied with the drivability.

They are nice guys, it's just this mass production they are all doing now is reflecting in the quality. I commission equipment for my company is China and Korea, I do quality control and assurance.

I know what's going on, trust me.

GTs aren't for everybody, just like PDs. Just gotta find which one is right for you, a lot of times through trial and error.

Have you checked all the possibility about what is making it vibrate?

I've had a few props balanced, definitely helped. But still has a vibration enough to make your hand tingle. I checked the planetary and rotor and they both have some run out. I figured this was the typical fit. I mean hell, Hoyt test drove the boat himself, and didn't say anything. I'm not going to constantly bring it back to them. I'm just gonna run it till it bust.

start a excessive Gator Tail Vibration thread and see what suggestions and remedies others have done - maybe others have the same issue and not sure how to discuss?

doing a simple search and found you are not alone,,,

How much of the vibration is from the prop running on the surface. It has to be some. Just wondering.

Post Re: Reverse
Just to add to all of this, I'm sure I've mentioned this before, but I've been doing QA/QC work for a while now which is why I am always finding what's wrong and trying to fix it. I'm afraid that all my complaining is useless being that this is just the nature of the surface drives. I like to cruise of the river, explore, etc. I put allot more hours than most.

I'll post up how things turn out next week.

I still find it hard to believe that a GT can out perform a PD in the mud.

That was an S curve there so it wasn't possible to go forward without running on to the bank. Just saying I had to pull out my cousins gator tail twice already with my prodrive reverse. Because he ran out of the bank and couldn't turn his boat around I'll pull it out because there wasn't enough water and is reversed wasn't powerful enough to pull it backwards.

You must be talking about gator snail owner's. I don't have any problems going in or out of any slough.

Nothing about that vid was impressive at all that's probaly why there is two coke cans strapped to the heads for exhaust he spent half the time out the boat pushing off the logs with his legs. Why would u do all that when a gtr would have went over that in forward

Salty D,

Why would you back up there instead of going forward?

There is plenty of water on the other side to turn around and go over that spot unless you couldn't get over it.

There was an S curve and as you can see the bottom was hard. I had to prop was to get through but don't worry I opened it up so a gator tail could pass.
And I was going back there to crawfish.
