twin 140's....tons of power , jumps outta the hole, trolls down to 1 mph if needed...tops out at 44 mph, cruise all day at 32 mph at 4000 rpm....gonna try four blades soon , had them on my E-TEC and loved em'
it's a Baha Cruiser, they do one off's in south Florida. My buddy in Mervliie has one, Hank from Pacific King in Ukee has one....lost one of my best clients this year after he sold his company in Calgary, went out on the new rig and ordered one the next day....got it in four weeks.....that one is in port McNeil.....oh ya he bought 30 acres of waterfront too...

Heres the rig myself and LuckyLing fish out of. Had the boat for the past two seasons. We have a list of roughly 1 dozen items that need to be either fixed or changed before the spring, certainly gets the use. The dog house really hampers room for fishing but overall the boat has been great and allowed for access to many more areas compared to the 15 footer we had.

Nice boat Tip Up. I have fished out of that same model of boat before and it did really well. I also had a 15' to start ( actually 14.5 ) I miss the small fuel cost though. I might end up going back to that one day.

I guess its all relative. I assume you are referring to the boat in your post, very nice btw. I've heard good things about the efficiency of the E-tecs, 65L/hr at cruise isnt much more than mine burns and I certainly dont have the same HP haha. As painfull as the gas dock can be, its always worth it.

Here is a couple of before and after shots of the Prowler refit in 2009. Super happy with this rig and after fishing her HARD for 15 years, I think I will hang on to her. Although Bananas, I LOVE that new rig of yours. We need to talk man. I am in the market still for another, and I think that one would go well on my dock!! We'll be in touch!
A bit dirty on the interior shot, but this was right after launching after refit...

Heres another pic of mine and Tip ups rig. As Tip Up mentioned, our boat needs some work. Does someone have a good plan for mounting a pair of rod holders on the outside of the boat? We currently have our rods holders on our doghouse, but sometimes we dont use all of our rods (i.e. like when salmon fishing, the hali rods stay on the doghouse) and the rods get in the way when were landing a fish. Actually last season we lost a couple of nice fish because of too much clutter surrounding the doghouse. Any suggestions?
