Post subject: | 25 HP Mudbuddy HD vs Gator Tail GT 25 vs ProDrive X25 |
If you could choose one and why? I know people will answer with "35 hp" but I'm trying to save on weight and my boat is not built for a 35 hp. Plus they are slightly out of my price range. what are some pros? What are some cons. They all cost about the same. my boat is a 1550 mod v. I know it's not the ideal rig but it's what I'm working with at the time. I had a 31 hp go devil lt on it before and it seemed too heavy. it did push it in the 20s with 3 guys and no gear at all. I've always liked Mud Buddy but I seem to be drawn in to Prodrive now. Also the gator tails are supposed to be faster? Thanks in advance for the advice. |

If you want instant reverse and customer service go Gator-tail.. If you want Full Power Reverse and customer service go Pro-Drive. If you want no reverse and dont mind poor customer service go Mud Buddy. If you want no bells and whistles (neutral,reverse,trim) but do want service go devil makes a 23 surface drive. |

Well the 35 hp prodrive is 335 lbs. The 25 hp is 260 lbs. I assumed it was near the same for all others too. |

260 for the 35 hp! No shit I like that. I don't need reverse. I have an outboard with reverse and I may have used it 3 or 4 times haha. |

That's the 35 GTR. It has reverse. The non-reverse Gator Tail will be lighter. |

I don't know why these guys won't list the weights on there sites. I mean it plain as day on ProDrives site. |

Ok I went full retard for a minute now I see it there. Still don't see it on mudbuddy though. I hear lots of negative feedback about there customer service though so I may steer clear of them. |
