 Death From Aboves NEW 20/72 DUAL RIG !!!!! FRONT STEER
Here she is my new fish bucket on steroids! It was a pleasure working with Gator-tail as they built this rig to my liking even though i did not ask for much just waned her to hold as many fish as possible and they did that!! With my old 1860 dual rig we almost always had some one driving the boat from the back if it was weedy or chasing down rays so with this boat we came up with a new idea to have front steer on her and all i can say is wow !!! She fishes like a dream and there is no fish that will out run me know  .. Here are some pics of her and i will get up some video of the front steer in action asap... Last few pic are of us breaking her in right down in TX

I do have this video but its all jacked up http://s1130.photobucket.com/user/goose ... 6.mp4.htmlthis video is of her at about 1/2 throttle i did not GPS yet but we had 3 guys, lots of stuff, and about 400lb of fish and i would say she was doing about 27-28 deep water

Awesome, how does the front steer work, hard to tell in the pics. I see two "throttle" arms, is that the steer or is there something I'm not seeing?

 Re: Death From Aboves NEW 20/72 DUAL RIG !!!!! FRONT STEE
That's nice, do you think the steering is a little slow? Some of the places I go, you'd be in a tight real quick if you couldn't turn faster... Can you turn a twin kind of like hitting one brake on a tractor by reversing one motor?

That is absolutely awesome!!! I also really liked the part where your ole lady gave a crab a home. It's not her first boat ride, and she's been trained well!

I think this front steer is the only way to go for bowfishing or fishing all together

 Re: Death From Aboves NEW 20/72 DUAL RIG !!!!! FRONT STEE
How much did you pay for this rig? I'm starting a bowfishing company and am interested in the dual gtrs. Also, I don't think front steer is better for charter fishing? what you think?

I don't think death from above runs charters, coot. Him and his wife are shooters, not boat captains.

 Re: Death From Aboves NEW 20/72 DUAL RIG !!!!! FRONT STEE
I don't charter neither but I can tell you that the front steering is for recreational use only. If you're chartering, you want a CC and out of the way of your clients. For example, I wouldn't want to be bumping DDM all night trying to shoot a fish!
