Xpress Shallow Water Bay 20'

[I make oil]

I looked at them but think they would just complicate the issue. What I've done is to stop using the seat and just sit on the deck when I have to do a lot of manuvering. The seat is way over on the right side and causes me to have to stretch across alot on a hard right turn. A longer handle would just exaberate the issue. Just running around it's fine. You know how it is you just have to learn how to live with a boat.

Quackhead, my boat with a 36 Prodrive runs around 29/30 MPH with me and my son. When the boat is loaded down in deep water it slows but so would any boat. How much performance would you expect from a boat with a mud motor? I've owned 5 or 6 differnt mud motor/boat combo's and this one is right up there with the best I've had as far as performance. The best part about it is the way it's laid out it's not a one trick pony. I use this boat for all of my fresh water activities other than pulling a skier or tube. Not just hunting or playing in mud.
