Either one will be great for the load your planning on carrying. I personally would go 18 x 48. You can expect speeds of 29-33 with a light load with this hull and a stock 35 GTR. |

The 54" will slide more than the 48" will. |

I have the 18x54 extreme & the boat turns great & the extreme is worth the extra money IMO. As for speeds it runs about 27-28 one person no load & 24-25 two people,blind & hunting gear. |

I agree with beck on the extreme turns on a dime but a little slower but the 54'' bottom I can carry 3 people and gear at 25 or better |
