Is it the length or the width that's not working for you? I bet a 37 LT on a 2048 would be wicked for carrying a load and still get pretty good speed too. |

Actually, it is the side hieght that I don't like the boat drafts in just a few inches. In my opinion ther is not alot of difference between 21 and 25 mph i'm not racing. |

Look at a GoDevil hull. My 1860 has short 17" sides. I wouldn't have it any other way. |

I like the go devil boats, but I have never rode in one. We have alot of open water around here and it can get rough 17" sides seem short to me I would prefer 20". I don't go out when its rough but we have all been caught in it. Even though my boat has 28" sides flat jons will get you wet lol. |

If it's rough, 3" on the sides won't be enough to make a difference. Lol I've had my boat in rougher water than I care to admit and it's done fine. It's all about using your head. The main thing I'd be worried about with a LT and rough water is not being able to get enough speed to stay on top of the waves. As it is now I can run them pretty well, but several mph slower might get me in a bind. |

Nice ride, I wouldn't need a mud hull for where I run , but I am considering one greatly. In my opinion there price compared to other manufactures there in the ball park of 100 gauge welded hulls like war eagle. |
