    Thats called a War Eagle Predator 861. I love mine! The only thing it wont do is the speed. Best Ive pulled on GPS with a yamie 115 4 stroke is 53-54 ultra light load. Ready to rock.. 48-50. With electronics (1198 back, 898 front), terrova i-pilot, Cumberland Spider Rigs, Cannon downrigger, 8' Minn Kota Talon, 2 built-in coolers stufffed, 3 batteries, gear, both livewells and a built in minnow bucket with aerator filled. 44-46. Now lemme tell ya.. when its loaded, it rides like a champ. Ive crossed Greers Ferry twice from the upper narrows to dam, and still had a 1/4 tank.

    What else ya wanna know?

    have to go custom for "your" perfect crappie boat, but then it would not be "perfect" for anyone else either. Find one that suits your style of fishing
    GO BIG ORANGE !

    I meant to behave, but there were just way too many other options available at the time.

    If I had 30K to spare, I'd put it on my mortgage first.
