    Hey I’ve got a question. How do you reach the kicker handle? Or is it somehow tied into the main motor?

    Nice ride Ben. Were you able to do any prop tinkering?

    Great looking boat Ben! You have to appreciate a guy that drives up to get his new rig in the snow and heads straight for Pool 4 to coat the new carpet with a little sauger slime.

    Ben, when you get a chance post a few performance numbers for us. I’m curious to hear where you guys ended up after we talked.

    No silly. Those are what all Iowans and Nebraskans wear for Halloween. Star Wars imperial trooper masks.

    Kooty is close. They are the Save Phace – Storm Troopa masks.

    They were a must have when I had a consol boat and are deffinately a must have in the new tiller. Wear one while running 51 + mph in the snow and rain or just on a cold morning like over the weekend and your eyes won’t water and your face won’t be numb when you get to your destination. Check out their website. They have some awesome designs and if you ordered today you just might have in in time for Halloween.

    I was lucky enough to get to help Ben break in the new rig. I’ll let Ben give all the details in his upcoming fishing report, but I can say I love that boat. I haven’t been a huge tiller guy in the past but I fell in love with Ben’s new Skeeter this weekend. We broke the 50mph mark and the thing tracks like it’s on rails.

    And it’s true, as you all saw, Ben looks much better in a mask! Actually, those Save Phace mask are a must have in a fast tiller. Love it. I think we’ve got Dean at Everts Resort convinced that he should carry them at the bait shop so hopefully you all can get a chance to “try it before you buy it” soon.

    Congrats again on the new ride, Ben! And thanks for the time on the water this weekend. I’m totally jealous!

    Thats one sweet ride. I had the chance to climb around this rig while Ben was down at Everts last weekend.

    Once that hull comes out in a single console i know someone who might be interested in a new boat

    It was good to see you guys again . Yes, even you Wade

    Congrats again on the new ride Ben
