It will be interesting to watch these lightweight performance hulls with the "go-fast guys" on the rivers

FIRST: I am not their saleman, I am not sponsored by Edge, I just worked with them designing a boat the way I wanted an aluminum boat to perform. By performance, I mean a boat that runs fast, carries a load well, turns great, and the quality of workmanship. I paid for my boat, no favors there. I make ZERO, NADA, NOTHING if anyone buys their boat. They have several established dealers in Arkansas. Black Ops Duck Calls sells the Edge line with Black Ops trademarked camo paint job. Go to their website, they have dealers that can and will give you a price. That said, personally, I would rather deal with a local dealer in case problems arise. I have never known Lake Area not trying to keep a customer happy.
Edge has a website: http://www.edgeboats.com/ According to their website, 550 Retail Price: 4755.00 including aluminum trailer + prep, taxes, and shipping NOW, note that is for the Edge with a dropdeck, not the standard deck we are accustomed to. All of the testing we have done, the 556 runs within 1 mph of the 550 with a 2 and/or 3 cylinder 25hp motor. D |

they are light because they are made of .090 aluminum. 3/32 of an inch. if you run around a bunch of stumps prob not a good idea.

Alweld is .100 gauge on most of their new boats and Alumaweld use to be .080 along with most other makers..... if its made and braced right .090 should be fine or atleast as good as others

If you run around a bunch of stumps a mud motor type hull is probably better. Compared to Jon boats in the same class edge boats will probably do pretty good. Definitely better than 0.80 boats.

Has anybody run a tall transom 550 w/ a short shaft 25 3 cylinder Yamaha on a CMC T & T unit? I've heard of the 40/50 Tohatsu's running this setup. Just wondering how this would work with the Yamaha before I order my 550 w/ a short transom.

Just a FYI, Edge has changed the bottom design of their boats The manufacturer and I do not agree, but, it's his business, not mine. I have set up 3 of the newer design boats and am not pleased with the changes. Oh well, the Edge is now the fastest boat on the water,,,EMPTY!
