 Re: headed to uncle J's today!!
had em put mikuni carb, intake, iron mountain heads, cam and marsh mellow exhaust. never had a mud motor before and kinda wanted to try it stock first but didnt want to do the mods myself or make the trip back south just for that so i figured go big and be done with it!

 Re: headed to uncle J's today!!
Great looking boat!! But just my preference... I would like to see a slightly curved sheerline instead of straight. It would look like a beautiful woman then.

 Re: headed to uncle J's today!!
Good looking boat.... Just curious though, what made you decide on the 1758 size? That's a little out of the ordinary. I don't have any room to talk as I only know 2 other people that run a 2054 like myself. Just kind of struck me as an odd size. congrats, now go drive it like you stole it.

 Re: headed to uncle J's today!!
Well, We went on our adventure. I think slim was surprised. This was his first time in a MM. I got a GPS from Jason Breaux. With Slim driving, we seen 31.2. Deepwater. I can say I was scared to death due to his first time touching a mudmotor(much less driving one). He experienced La Mud, and the art of getting unstuck.
@ home alive, Uncle J

 Re: headed to uncle J's today!!
Awesome rig. Can't say enough good about uncle j. He went far above and beyond. Gota see the real Louisiana, see why y'all run long skinny light boats. Got to meet some of y'all on here and see what "ridin" is all about. Good times. Got a 100qt cooler full of fresh shrimp (true treat in Illinois ) cheap!!! And ate some good seafood. Headed home.will have a report up shortly. She's a heavy boat but it'll flat run!
