Well ... I'm outa here for a few days ...

[Kevin Hall]

I'm leaving town to make a quick trip to Arkansas to pick up my new boat!

I ordered a new 18x48 Excel, made in Clinton, AR ... with a Prodrive 36 (ordered through Tony (Reddfin)). I'm through fighting with outboard in shallow water and weeds. ;) Tony says that I'll also be able to give up my pushpole. ;)

I'll post up pictures after I get home ... sometime Tuesday evening. :D

Have a safe trip Kevin. Probably seem like twice as long as normal to get to that rig. Post pics when you get home.

You might want to rethink that!! Was real glad to have ours this evening. We were in about 5" of water & run up on a log that was hiding in the hydrilla... it looked like we were in a play ground... on a see saw...:sign12: :laughing7

Congratulations Kevin! Sounds like one sweet rig.
With the Prodrive on that hull I think you probably can leave the push pole at home. Ive watched some of the mud videos on boats powered with the Pro Drive and they are one tough SOB!
Give me a shout when you get back I'd like to check one out first hand.

Keep the push pole and buy a winch
