I wanted a copperhead but didn't wanna pay for it. I've got about $700 in mine. A go devil 6.5hp is about $2,500. So I came out on top.

I got a 13' Riverhawk but I am leaning towards building a 6.5 surface drive for it. LMR post up some pictures of the way the boat sits in the water with the motor installed.

I bought a powell performance wood duck mud motor for my 1436 crawdad, last year. I am currently hopping up a honda gx200 for it. It is a sweet motor and is really light. I will post pics and performance once I'm done

Thanks! ...Nah it's line-x. I love that little boat. It's a lot of fun to cruise the creeks. It will go almost anywhere. Only bad thing with the long tail is it gets a little tricky maneuvering through a lot of tight trees.

Right now I'm building a front trolling motor mount, that will have 2 offroad lights on the front too. Then it will be complete untill I get another idea. But the other thing that kinda sucks is the motor placement, in order for the motor to work right the engine sticks inside the boat to where I can't sit on the bench seat, so the cooler is my seat, works out pretty good though.

Same boat as in second pic, and same boat I was referring to that's for sale. It's an AWESOME rig for sure. We have a lot of fun in these little boats.

I'm thinking REALLY hard about putting together a B60 or a B72 with a Copperhead for my all around boat(fishing, riding the lake, hunting, etc). The main problem is how far I'd have to drive to find a dealer.

I think my 15 ran about 26 or 27. We and Mudeagle both had one. Cut the front benches out and refiberglassed the floors. They were awesome, we had fun messing with them. Just needed to downsize the fleet at the time.

Smilee, I've got a robertsons torque tube exhaust. NR Race filter. And rejected the carb, and just run 93 octane. 93 helps out, it will sputter with 87 since I rejected it. That small filter sticking up is just a breather, and I put an hour meter on it. NRracing.com has everything you need. I also took the baffle out of the muffler which made it super loud, but I have another one I will use duck hunting. U can hear that exhaust without a baffle literally over a mile away.

Phone man your river hawk is painted up sorta like my other one.
