We finally got our custom boat! It took a 25 hour turn and burn trip to southern Louisiana to pick it up and the long wait is over! It is a 18x60 ProDrive TDX (Timber series)with a 40 hp surface drive Marine Vanguard engine...one of the locals down there took us out in the swamps for its maiden voyage and that was a real treat! Gators and all! We had it built to our specs as we wanted a do all boat...fishing/bowfishing/waterfowl hunting and to that end I had the hull made of 3/16th aluminum for busting ice late winter waterfowl hunting and I went with 24 in sides 1/8th inch thick for running flooded rivers ...had it hydro turfed..custom bowfishing light rails...dual battery set up for a 24 volt trolling system and dual fuel tanks to list a few of its features...we have been putting some hours on it learning how to run it properly...today dad took our no.1 grandson for a 10 mile run on the river and this kid is ate up about this boat!
