Got the new boat home Tuesday. Painted it up and rigged it out wednessday. All I really got left is 2 more pieces of hydro turf and few nick nack things. I should have pictures up by Saturday. The entire process of gettin dis boat built was worry free. When you sit down and talk wit Rick he's able to pull dat idea right out of your head and built it. Even afew thing dat I knew kind of what I wanted but did't know if it would work or how it would look. He not only figured out but it looks better than I even thought would be possible. Here is a brief description. 18'x54" bateau Wrap around cat walks Gun box 5' front deck wit 3' dry storage and 2' extended deck 2' rear drop deck (dis design he got for da hunt deck is badass, wait till you see da pictures) Offset console (basically a center console built toward da side of da boat it gives you a lot more space dis way) * Again wait till you see da pictures dis console is gonna have alot of people goin away from center consoles. Again thanks Rick, It was agreat experience from start to finish. ~*Edited after Stage 1 Mods Done by Gator-Tail*~ *Empty by myself - 28 mph~*31*~. (just me, 12 gal. of gas, a battery, and all da shit I keep in my dry storages) *Light load by myself - 27 mph~*30*~ *Two people, 70 lbs. dog, and a light load - 26 mph~*29*~ *Two people, two full ice chest, 70 lbs dog, 20 gal. of gas, 5 gal. of diesel, guns, cloths, and everything else for a weekend at da camp - 25.5 mph~*28*~ *Same full load as above and add a third person - 25 mph~*27*~ Handles a load unbelievably well. Conditions tested in: calm water and very little or no wind. (all deep water speeds) My top runnin RPM's were right at 3850 rpm this is wit my top out of water RPM's set at 4250. |

i know you said earlier it was an "offset" cc, that to me "in the pics" looks like just a regular side console. what is the difference with that from a side console. just asking. |
