Post 1854 Uncle J
1854 3/16/" bottom
24" sides
wide gunnel
custom boxes
full floor.
sport deck
36 pro drive
26gps avg me (230) and dog 10 gallons.
21 avg me 2 other guys light gear
Also has removable gun box.
Still have to get canvas flap made to cover gas tank, and need some driving lights...any ideas.



Had the boat for a few months now. Put some hours on it and have really enjoyed it. Jason did a great job on it. It was my first build and I'm happy with it. Only change I would make would be a shorter rake. Not knowing I asked for a long rake but think the shorter rake would help me on getting up to speed. Boat is a tank and I don't have to worry about running the stumps. Now just need to do some mods to the motor to go a bit faster. But that will have to wait till next year probably. Will post some more pics later

those are decent speeds for that big rig and stock motor.
looks like you are one of the few who dont just add a couple mph.

ya why do that when everybody knows you're are full of shit! Now... I did hit 45 mph pulling a wakeboard!! LMAO. but really its not to bad when its just me I ran it for 2 hours yesterday on big water and it seemed fast enough but when you put another guy in there its night and day. I like speed so I need about 50 horses to be satisfied.

How many letters must separate f, r, o, and g in a post in order to be within MMT law once the ban goes into effect? Did I cover it in my last post or would I still get my MMT license suspended for the minimum 90 days plus court costs?

I'd like to know more about the ledge/shelf under the catwalks. I've thought about that before. Would be a nice thing to put shells on, etc. can you post some close ups?

That was a great idea. And, it is tucked away under catwalk. Due to flare in sides, it isn't even in the way while walking.

Very nice rig! Don't be disappointed with the long rake...a short rake actually hurts when you haul a load-- it tends to push water and makes it harder for your hull to ease up on pad. Take it from someone who wishes they had a long rake.....

I agee, but I think it's the camera angle and the fact that the hull at that point is partially submerged. The profile/side shot doesn't look that way.

I seen what you are talking about. Though, I looked at some pictures of the start of the build, and I dont see it the same. I think it is a bit of shadow and or picture angle. The rakes are drawn out 1' more that what is intended to insure that it is a smooth transition.

I like the holes under the front deck for storing the spuds, too. Nice looking rig. I am sure looking forward to getting mine built!

I kind of like the rake. The shelves are a great idea! Tell me this: How the hell is the tree with the winch held on that trailer?

As far as the shelves. I love those things. I just throw my cell phone keys and gps in there and they ride good. Im gonna do led under them so I will have interior lighting. The boat is a long way from finished I just have to get some cash in my pocket. These damm kids are breaking me with the damm birthday parties every other week.

AND J ....I want 10% on every shelf you install from now on LOL.
