[QUOTE="dave shady, post: 215428, member: 5285"] Well only had time to take her out once more and very happy with the performance up the river and back. lots of speed and handles well. Got to use the I-Piolt to get me out of the shoreline of the backwaters and to the deeper water for the outboard. I can see that comming in handy for duck season for sure with the wireless remote and picking up decoys and such. Since then haven't done much still haven't installed the depth finder decided i don't need one up front since i mostly shore fish and surface. I did tape off and bedliner coat the gunnels of the rig for durability. Paint just doesn't cut it well when banging around and i got 3 coats of herculiner on the rails. Give it 30 days and will be FLAT black just like the trailer. put in 4 black cleats for just bumper tie offs and stuff still haven't decided on anchor points for the anchors for open water hunting.

Glad I taped it well and put plastic on the inside and out. Turned out quite well I think and will add durability to the gunnels. [/QUOTE]
