 gator tail / best hull with prodrive
I know a few guys hav, e had to try this??? I am in need of a new hull but want to say with a PD. Does anyone know about the performance of a PD on a gt hull?
How about the fastest, load carrying hull?

 Re: gator tail hull with prodrive
I'd think it'd do good. i had a gt on a pd hull and it ran great so i dont c y it wouldn't do good tha other way around.

 Re: gator tail hull with prodrive
I have a PD hull and am just wanting something a little different. I kinda like the gt hulls.
I know someone else has tried this before.

 Re: gator tail hull with prodrive
I did it for a couple years. Ran ok. Traded the GT 1754 for A 1856 phowler. The phowler ran a couple mph faster even though it was heavier. I think transom angle has something to do with it.
YMMV

 Re: gator tail hull with prodrive
So who makes the fastest hulls for a PD? I run hard bottom but no stumps so I am thinking of going with 1/8" but another rib or two.
