i have a 1442 flat jon very light and need a good running surface drive for when it gets shallow....no mud and don't need a mud hull for what i do....are the coppereads a good quality motor and what kind of speeds should i expect running solo? i've seen videos of them doing 25-27 with 2 people in an all welded boat... |

DAMN! i weigh about 230 and i hunt with a very light load, i hate all gadgets so i usually only have about a dozen decoys and my 75lb british brown beast....thanks for the info, the copperhead seems like my best choice. |
