    Fastest Bass Boat Out There?

    I got to watch Paul Nichols set the record for running the entire length of the Tennessee River in the shortest amount of time this last year in a 21xrd w/300xs on back. It was like 654 miles and I want to say he did it in just under 10hrs or maybe a little more. This includes locking through...

    what is the most popular boat among pros and elite anglers/

    I see a bunch of just about everything there is where I fish. Heck Bullets are a dime a dozen here. Paul Nichols actually lives in this area. I actually think they all cost about the same amount brand new loaded out. When I toured the Triton plant about a month ago with a guy that was...

    what is the most popular boat among pros and elite anglers/

    Everyone brings very good points to this discussion. The topic is what boat is most popular among the pros..., and my answer like most would be the so called cookie cutters. The reason being because the amount of money spent on advertising and sponsorship plain and simple. I don't think Kevin...

    Shadow Bass Boat

    My best friend's father has a 89 model Shadow that is either a 19 or 20ft. boat. It has an old Evinrude 200 XP(?) on it that is built to the gills. This boat is in better condition than most boats that roll off the showroom floor. He is a gearhead and has really built it up. He claims that...

    Aluminum Boats

    My vote is on the Triton Aluminum series. They made the Magnum series before but now is replaced with the VT series which is not even in the same class as the Magnums. The Magnums came in several lengths from 17-19ft. The 197 Magnum(19ft) was rated for a 200. Here is a picture of mine and by...

    Xpress boat

    Gotcha, the 25p appears to be in great shape (No dings or bends), but that would be cool if it needed to be reworked a little if it helped the performance even more. I need to just take it to the lake and just adjust it in very small increments until it is where it needs to be. I was just...

    Xpress boat

    The first time I ever switched them it was. The 27p brought rpm down to about 5100-5200. I have never really tinkered with it enough with same load to have a very consistent basis to make my adjustments.

    Xpress boat

    Do you mean work on the prop or setup? I am open to all suggestions, I can still tinker with it until I find it a new home.

    Xpress boat

    I do not want to hi-jack anyones thread, but you twisted my arm. 1 man, gear, and fuel with 25 Tempest plus will run 65-68 @5750rpm with the best hole-shot I have ever experienced in a boat. 1 man, gear, and fuel with 27 Tempest plus will run about 70-72 @5100-5300. The 27p prop got better...
