This rig continues to impress. I fished an event last weekend and again this weekend. Both days ended up with 8 rods on deck and plenty of room to fish and move around. I don't fish with the pole seat in place but I may need to in current. I almost went over again trying to retrieve a hung up bait and had the 112# on 100 lol. Put some fish in the live well. I also cleaned the pump guard screens this weekend. They were a little tricky to get to and mostly had fiberglass strands in them from the factory I guess. Water flow seemed to improve afterwards. I've seen some pretty gunky photos of them in the past posted by guys on here or face book after fishing big events. I've put 7 hours on it in the two weeks I've had it. Speeds 55-60 the ride is fantastic, even in 15-20 mph winds the boat felt like a truck on a gravel road. Fishing in the wind and current has less drag than the caracal and stays in place some what better. I am missing the caracal layout though. It was nice to just kneel down and have side opening boxes. I'm running a 25- fury with 4 batteries and poles, manual jack plate. It ventilates some on take off, and I have to feather the throttle but only minimally. Only been running around with 20 gallons of fuel on trips. Seat time is getting better, or the chop helped me maintain speeds around 68-72. I have been driving it there more to achieve seat time before trying to see what it can do.... Over all still very impressed! And happy!

Beautiful Cat. I love mine. I was running a 26 Fury 3 and went to a 25 Fury 4. Not worked but I love the results of lift and hole shot.
Enjoy!!

I really liked the 4 blade on my caracal. The lift and hole shot and the 25/3 blade seems pretty good so far. But might change in the summer heat. What kind of speeds/ rpm are you getting out of it? Did you have to adjust your jp settings at all?

Awesome boat good luck
