    Nice setup I like that big gun box. I was impressed with the way it handled those boat wakes it looked like it was a really dry ride. I have a Pro Drive it's a totally flat bottom so it can get a little wet but it dose great in the mud and weeds.

      Appreciate it, I bet having full power reverse comes in handy at times in the mud and weeds!

      Since when did mud buddy come out with a 60hp mud motor?

      @ Thank you for asking. Look up Mud Buddy 6000HD. My motor has been modified with a high lift camshaft and roller rockers. The Stock intake and carburetor have been modified, and the exhaust is a high flow dual muffler system.

      I’ve got a 1756 DBST. Can’t fit a second battery and the 6gal fuel tank in the center hatch in the back and still be able to get to the plug

    If I’m not sure whether or not I’ll be in the mud much, would I be better off getting the DBST? Or should I get the MSTC just in case? Is there any negatives to getting the inverted ribs?

    • @chevyon37s
      @chevyon37s 2 місяці тому

      I’ve got a DBST, it floats just as shallow as the MSTC and handles a little better. Both hulls have the same 8° dead rise and solid center keel/ rib that sticks out. But the MSTC is a little better for true mud use… but if you’re just running shallow the DBST does great and it handles open water great. I like that my DBST doesn’t skid and slide AT ALL in hard cornering. I’m unsure about the MSTC in that aspect but it’s better handling than a true mud hull like a pro drive or go devil hull that is purely flat bottom with no ribs or keel and a 0° dead rise.
      My 50hp outboard on a jack plate will take me into water where the hull will hang up (idling along) and run shallow enough on plane (4-6” of water) to where my skeg digs in and my motor kicks up on the kick plate

    How heavy is the hull? And have you got it stuck? If so, how easy was it to get unstuck? Thanks!

    • @ftmikeyt
      @ftmikeyt  4 місяці тому +1

      Unsure of the weight but I got it close to being stuck and it's like any other mud boat to get out haha!

    Why do you like surface drives better than long tails? haven’t seen anyone really do a comparison or pros and cons of each

    • @ftmikeyt
      @ftmikeyt  2 місяці тому +1

      Never used a long tail but I do enjoy the surface drive!

    • @chevyon37s
      @chevyon37s 2 місяці тому +1

      Long tails can’t turn as sharp as a surface drive, but a long tail is easier to get going/ unstuck if you stop in soupy mud.

    • @C4RR
      @C4RR 15 днів тому

      Surface drive mud motors are faster.
      Long tails are slower but honestly I've NEVER been stuck in my longhair. I happy own both 27 kohler go-devil.

    Not nearly fast enough for the money

    • @chevyon37s
      @chevyon37s 2 місяці тому

      Right? My 50hp outboard will hit 42+ with a light 1 man hunting load and still run 38 fully loaded. And I’m still bumping it up to 60hp. The outboard was also $2500 cheaper than a surface drive

      You're not paying for the speed . It's a mud motor you're paying for the places you can go that a outboard can't go .
