Curious to know what kind of numbers I should be seeing. _________________ "I have been blessed with many things in this life, an arm like a rocket, a cck like a Burmese Python and a mind of a fckin scientist." -Kenny F*ckin Powers Gator Trax 3-Man Gatorhide with a Mud Buddy HD Sport 5000 Large Big Green Egg with rounded chines

Always like the looks of this rig -- if you can learn to shoot well from a layout position -- it looks like a duck killing machine ! ! ! It might be a tad heavy --- I would want a winch option for those days where some boat draggin could happen ! ! ! And - to shoot some skeet out of the boat sittin on the trailer during dove season to get sharpened up on shooting from the layout position ! ! ! But I bet that MB 5000 makes it haul butt in 5 inches or more ! ! ! Send up some duck numbers in the REVIEWS when Sept comes ! ! ! @ @ @ @ @ @ As per their website.... http://www.mudbuddy.com/Gator%20Hide%20Boat.htm New Gator Hide Boat Sleek Low Profile - 16" Sides 18x62 Hull .125 5086 Aluminum Round Chines and Longitudinal Bracing as always!

There was the MB with intake and exhaust on it before and it hit 27 in skinny water with 3 men, dog and all the gear so the new one should roll. _________________ "I have been blessed with many things in this life, an arm like a rocket, a cck like a Burmese Python and a mind of a fckin scientist." -Kenny F*ckin Powers Gator Trax 3-Man Gatorhide with a Mud Buddy HD Sport 5000 Large Big Green Egg with rounded chines

I was hitting low 20-23 w a hunting load, not good enough for my needs so sent the motor for a stage III, i'm told low 30's shouldnt be a problem with the modded motor and with a load mid 20's. your 5000 should be close to the same i would think, good luck. you wont find a more comfortable boat to hunt out of.

With 500 lbs of peeps in it and a few other small items it ran28-30 in deep water and got it up to 32mph in real skinny water but only for a little bit. It does well once up on plane but modderate prop wear even on a Big Blade killed Hole Shot. _________________ THE, FIRST and ONLY MMT Member of the Year!
