Well I got it!! My new 17x54 35gtr!! These are pic of the day I picked it up from Gator-Tail and a few days after installing the Hyrdo-Turf and trolling motor bracket.. Still w/o my EVT tho. I was told they would ship it to me TODAY. But I have been wait on it for 3 weeks now so im not holding my breath...

28-30mph deep Water & Shallow
Seems like it runs around 3700ish-3800rpm depending. Does this seem to be the same for everyone else?!?

It does slide but this is my 2nd GT (18x40 23gtr first rig) so I kinda already had the feel for the slide. But im totaly happy. At first I was DAMN this is way wider than I expected but after being in it fishing/riding im very happy!

sweet az rig!!

Cool Rig..

It looks like you have a energy drink logo on the back of your motor..

Its a Monster logo... Cause its a Monster boat.. lol

Speeds are right on. I have an 1860 and I'm getting 28-29 almost bumping 30... 29.8 is my best with stock carb & Marsh Mellow exhaust

curious to why you installed the hydroturf on the front deck with the traction going left to right instead of front to back so the water runs off the front deck?

THE SHEET IS LONGER THAT WAY AND ALOWED ME TO ONLY USE 1/2 A SHEET AND NO EXTRA CUTS. PLUS GATORTAIL DRILS SMALL HOLES AT THE END OF THE DECK FOR WATER TO DRAIN.. WITH THE GROVES GOING LEFT TO RIGHT THE WATER FLOWS DIRECTLY INTO THE HOLES DRILLED FOR DRAINING!

I remember the day i drove to go get my motor, that damn truck would not go fast enough. I understand your excitment completly, You like the new reverse lever design?

yeah I do.. It takes very little pressure and it locks in place so you dont have to hold it.. All works very ez too!! Now if I can just get that damn EVT!!!

What are you waiting on from EVT? I do not have any orders right now that are going to LA.

Man that thing is sweet. I see you live in luling you should come ride in segnette or in myrtle grove with us sometime. I will pm you my number I am always up to ride just let me know when you wanna go. C.J.

awesome rig, congrats!

Drake = MIke im guessing?!?! lol

I called you yesterday asking if you had them in stock and wondered if you where shipping any brackets to GT. Seems like I was waiting on a bracket.. BUT!! I just called and GT said the muffler was shipped to me today, I cant lie I had to bug the hell outta them to get it... But its on the way now Im a little more happy..

I dont even want to think back and wonder why I didnt get it sooner if you didnt send them any brackets lately and had no orders how all of a sudden they have it and shipping it?!??? Hmmmmmm.. lol

Anyways.. Yes I will come ride with you guys.. Altho we have some awesome ride'n here in St. Charles parish!! MAybe we can swap a ride!! lol.. We have around 8-10 GT's in St. Chalres parish plus a ton of other mudboats.. We plan on all getting together soon for a BIG run!! Keep ur eyes open!

Nice rig.. Now all it needs are a few scraches mixed in with some mud and a little duck blood.. Enjoy...

How long is that box?

7-1/2' foot rod box/gun box. They do make just a gun box it's a little shorter and maybe taller but I wanted 1 box for rod's and guns

looks really long. I was thinking about getting two of them in mine. do you think that would be overkill, I getting an 18x60.

Man I sure would love to have that rig for a fishing/bowfishing boat. But I'm sure if I bought it that it would also come with divorce papers.

well t duet looks like you got yours first that sucks order first and get last lol oh well hopefully it will be ready next week looks good man congrats did you get that trailer through them at gt just wondering ill post mine as soon as i get it impressed with the speeds cant wait to see what mine will do

Nice rig man, Had a GT boat/motor at Camo Designs when I was picking my boat up today, getting painted had the same layout of boat.

hey thats my boat at camo designs how far along is he and how does it look

Man those dudes at GT can camo a motor

I think it would be over kill to have 2 rod boxes... Its plenty of storage with one rod box and a small box in the back. But it wouldnt hurt to have 2!! lol

Owen, It will be rigged to bowhunt soon hopefully, but I will not bulid a deck. Just light bars across the front and sides. It deck sits high enough above the water I believe.

Woodduck, Sorry bro but you got that fancy a$$ paint job so maybe yours is take'n a little longer, but it will be well worth the wait!! BELIEVE ME!!

Just wanna thank everyone for the good comments on my rig.. It took me a while to really decide what and how I wanted it and im very pleased with the way it turned out... Now its time to tear some sh!t up and bust some ducks!!

Does the half pipe down the sides come with it or did you tell them to add that? Is that where they ran the electrical wire?

Great looking rig!!

That's where they run the wires now! No more wires under the floor!

I have a boat that was done by camo-designs, and man can them guys paint a boat, not to mention Ricky is a bang up guy.

Hell yea t I grew up in hahnville and I will see about getting some guys from down this way to come too just let me know when and where

That paint job is awesome!! Wow

As for the wires yes that is how it came and I believe that's how they are running them

Congrats on the new rig, looks good! Let me know when yall go ride.

Glad they hooked you up. Like I said on the phone I sent them 2 brackets 3 weeks ago so I do not know where the mix up came from.

Yeah it should be there when I get home from what GT told me this morning. I realy hope so! I'm unsure of the mix up as well. Kinda crazy but I should be all squared away after today. I just hopethe rain hold off after work so I can get it installed!! I'm ready for that EVT sound!

You'll enjoy it for sure!

Installing the EVT today!!
