    Except for this morning! Thanks SBC for granting a Walleye pardon and allowing me to get behind the wheel of the Skeeter bass rig powered with the new Yamaha motor.

    Lost my hat ,learned what a foot throttle was and a fancy powerpole anchor just to mention a few oddities to a walleye guy.I hit the foot throttle,and got a instanst lift off,and trimmed out before I new it. The new motors certainly have a sound of their own.

    I think I am starting to understand why Bass guys are bass guys,they have all the fun stuff in the boat! It will be fun to see what the new 300hp will do on the 2100 deep v.

    Look for a ride n drive coming your way in the near future!Bring an xtra hat though!

    LOL Cal…not sure where you put the kicker motor & handline reels?

    The gps hit 66mph upstream and still had jackplate to play with….guessing it is a 70+ plus boat? The amazing thing to me was how quick it got to that speed.

    Ritter….that is the boat you been waiting for!

    Isn’t 55 mph the legal limit in MN?
    Have heard rumors that the bloodlines are endangered for idiots who want to go faster. Is it possible to reproduce after a dock slices your head off?

    Yes we have all the fun stuff, until you get in some 5 footers. Then things get a bit rough.

    As for the head slice off stay at the 300 foot line and there should be no slicing going on.
