I got 2018 1448 Tracker Grizzly with 2019 Mercury 25 hp Short Shaft with Stainless prop 11 pitch which I might drop it to a 10 pitch.. Runs fine with one person. If you have two one person must sit toward the front. Trolling motor 12V 48lb minn Kota which works fine in the Louisiana bayous. Easy to handle which is what I love about it and very stable for a 14ft boat. Only dislike is my paint peeled on the back and cap has bubbles. Besides the paint issues the boat has been a pretty good little boat.
Attach the kill cord to your leg, its there for safety, if it's attached to your leg it will cut the engine if you go overboard and stop it running you down.
Not before you pass through the prop, moving with perpetual motion while still in gear. Still better than under power, but not gonna prevent all injuries. So just be safe and go slow. You will see more and be alive without injuries to tell your pals when you brag about your boat.
@vikingsmb run away crafts are very dangerous. Always wear the kill leash as in US it is law. And furthermore, it helps more than it hurts. But you wont escape injury if wearing and unaware while operating. The prop is moving and forward motion will carry the blades clean through bare skin if the two should meet. Cheers fella. Be safe.
Hello MC again for Georgia , This is your buddy Wayne Im still hawg snatching with my Sun Dolphin , But i like your new rig , Also I finally got Power Pole spike kit too, best ad on i ever made, " Good Luck " on the water in your new boat Brother !!!!!
You could attach a small line to the kill switch at the end of your session and pull it when you are done after you crank it up on the trailer. Might avoid a slip if your feet are wet trying to get back in the boat. Thanks for sharing the video.
Great video and details. I have a 2018 grizzly 1648. I really like it. You're right, that tin can get hot. I bought a floatation seat cushion that I use while driving. Thanks for sharing, bro. Enjoy!
I don't know how many times I've seen videos of boats running around with nobody in them, the operator ended up in the water and wasn't wearing the safety lanyard. Such a basic safety precaution, I can't understand why anyone would want to risk getting run over by their own boat, propellers can do horrible injuries to a human being. I noticed yours hanging unattached.
I was looking for a comment on this. Huge safety issues. I like the creators boat and his mod ideas etc. I do not like the HUGE and SIMPLE safety issues that are being “taught” or “advertised” here. Like leaving it run on the trailer at the ramp and going to the front. Just shut it off and crank it in the rest of the way!!
@@brianchisnell1548 it’s pretty simple, don’t leave the “helm” or control of the motor while it’s running. There is plenty of UA-cam videos showing why it’s stupid to do so.

Erik Brandsen It does well depending on what weight distribution you have in the front and a I would recommend storing in the front storage to even the weight.
Were you ever able to get your trim adjusted and eliminate the "propoising"? I'm curios what speeds this boat would hit with a nice plane... My riveted 1448 does 31/32 with a Yamaha F25. I'd rather not lose 20% of my speed.

@@johncuervo3019 I just bought this exact same model the 1448. Tracker rates it at 25hp, but if you step up to the 1648 they rate it for 40hp.

So the transom itself should hold 40hp no problem and I will be buying a 40hp tiller for my boat without thinking twice.

Adjust your motor trim and get a jack plate. I have a 25 Yamaha on my 1448 and my boat never bounces like that in calm water and I can hit over 30mph
Tilt the engine up just a bit when pulling out of the water. Avoid dragging your skeg up the ramp.
