Gator tail on Gator Trax
Anyone ever run this combo? I’ve heard gator tails are set up for particular transom angles.

Re: Gator tail on Gator Trax
I assume you run that set up, what do you run and what speeds/load carrying do you see?

Re: Gator tail on Gator Trax
No don’t have that set up, but have ridden in a few. There’s a review section on this internet website, that details loads and speeds of various boat and motor combinations. Most people glance at it before starting new threads. I have included a link to review documenting a gator trax/gator tail combo. There are others. viewtopic.php?f=5&t=72026

Re: Gator tail on Gator Trax
Do you already have a gator trax? If so call gatortail and determine what pin you need to run your motor on.

Re: Gator tail on Gator Trax
I have this. Mid 20's with full hunting load (3 guys, dog, etc. deep water). Reverse might suffer a little since the transom is not cut back, but I can't say for sure. Works great for me. Get's on plane instantly. I also have a completely un-modified stock 35.

Re: Gator tail on Gator Trax
It runs but slow. Better off getting a predator series hull with a GTR
