 1848 Brother Boat with 36 PD MM Brand: Pro-Drive
Horsepower: 36
Boat Brand: Brothers Boats
Boat Size: 1848
Speeds | Shallow Water: Didnt Exist.
Speeds | Deep Water: 28.6
Total Boat Load With Gear Etc: Me
Conditions Tested In: Windy with choppy water
Comments: The boat is 3/16ths bottom with 21" tall 1/8" sides. 6 2x2 runners and 4 2x2 cross braces. When running WFO im turning between 3980 and 4000 RPMS. Boat runs very well and i'm extremely pleased with how it handles. on a side note, this boat is only .3 mph slower than my 1648 PD boat that was .125 bottom, and this boat has alot more stuff in it than the PD one.

Re: 1848 Brother Boat with 36 PD Damn fine rig...... I think brother builds the nicest custom boat. I'm shore lovin mine! Did you have him add the trim tab on the back of the transom? He didn't do mine that way. Is that a pic of you or brother? If its you, you could pass for brother's brother.  Congrats!

Re: 1848 Brother Boat with 36 PD Looks good man, I like that gas tank built in there. That marine 36 looks good too. Think it will break 30

Re: 1848 Brother Boat with 36 PD Nice look boat!
I also noticed the lack of the governor, and the multi wires for the 20/50 amp charging system...

Re: 1848 Brother Boat with 36 PD Be careful tieing down your motor like that. I used to tie it down in a similar way, then was told not to by PD. Now I just tie the boat down to the trailer and bungie cord the PD handle so it doesn't go side to side.

Re: 1848 Brother Boat with 36 PD Buy some Boat Buckles for your trailer. They are one of my favorite additions that I have made.

Re: 1848 Brother Boat with 36 PD What's the price tag on that boat? Just the boat. More expensive than a PD or GatorTail?
