 Redbird 2054 w/MB 7000 finally finished
- 2054 Custom with 3/16 floor, 60 inch front deck, huntdeck, bars front and rear - MB 7000 with Calen heads and 32 outdrive and hammer prop - Swamp Camo hydroturf - Open floor plan with gutters and a console
Darren originally built the boat for fishn. So I made some mods to it and Chad at Prodigy helped me alot with that. After the mods I jus completely repainted it. I wanted a bottomland and talked to Dfou on here and he hooked me up with how he done his. I bought the twin carbs from another member here and I really like the difference they made. Boat runs and rides good, top speed is 32-33 and I havent seen it make much difference if there is 3 people or me by myself.

Really like that console. Good looking boat! That MB shoves it pretty good too!

Got to see this boat come together in person. He was finishing up this while building mine last summer. Definitely some good work. And the console is nice. Would def have gotten something like that if I had a tiller rig

 Re: Redbird 2054 w/MB 7000 finally finished
When i first saw the console, I wasnt sure if I was gonna like it. It has grown on me and if I was to get him to build me another one, it would have one. I wouldnt change alot from wat I have now. I was a little concerned about the length for duck huntn but we never had any trouble gettn places at all...and we could haul the world in it

Nice rig for sure. Love mine from him, he knows how to build a good boat. Thought about getting that console for my tiller but opt not to. I wanted an open layout because I will be using this rig to run crawfish traps also but definitely a nice touch.
