 Excel 1645 and Gator tail or Mud buddy Just bought a new excel 1645 and kinda leaning twards a gator tail but i hear that the transom angle needed for a mud buddy vs a gator tail motor are diffrent. So any one have any experience with a excel and a gator tail motor and how did it perform??? Thanks.

Re: Excel 1645 and Gator tail or Mud buddy Get the gator tail so when you sell the boat you still have a good motor

Re: Excel 1645 and Gator tail or Mud buddy The angle needed for a GT and MB is so close it won't matter.

Re: Excel 1645 and Gator tail or Mud buddy Transom wedges will correct +\- transom angle if it becomes a big deal
