    RT178 Finally Came In

    Love the looks. Reminder that this only has a 20hp (on a private lake) and was bought with my Cabela's points (so not too many negative posts). It'll be used more for fishing but for a little duck hunting as well. Going to love it.

    I like the gray interior vs full camo. I can't tell if it's the Rawhide or not? My Rawhide has held up well so far, shows very little dirt being I have never cleaned it in the 18 months I've owned it.

    Thanks - No - it is carpet. Went with carpet for the additional quietness because it will be used for more fishing than anything, and that usually involves a lot of close range pitchin and flippin.

    Local guy who fishes another club has a 20hp on his. Said it runs 21mph (have not seen myself). My 178 with 30 Etec runs 24 with two guys. Have fun!
